Our ratings are based on a scale from 1 (We avoid) to 5 (Great) How we rate


Our “Planet” rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions and wastewater to business models and product circularity. Here we rate Klättermusen “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses some lower impact materials including recycled materials.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taken any action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in its supply chain.
  • There’s no evidence it takes action to minimise its packaging, which is a driver of plastic waste.
  • It's eliminated some hazardous chemicals from its supply chain.
  • There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce water use.

Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assess brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate Klättermusen “Very Poor”. Unfortunately, Klättermusen does not publish sufficient information. You have a right to know how the products you buy affect the issues you care about.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Here we rate Klättermusen “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It appears to use wool, alpaca, and down.
  • A high proportion of its animal-derived materials consist of recycled or certified alternatives to conventional wool and down.
  • It doesn’t appear to use fur, angora, leather, shearling, cashmere, or mohair.
  • It has a policy to source wool from non-mulesed sheep but doesn’t provide any evidence to verify its claims.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Klättermusen “Not Good Enough” overall.
