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 Krack “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • There’s no evidence it minimises textile waste in its supply chain.
  • There’s no evidence it avoids harmful chemicals in the leather tanning process.

  • There's no evidence it audits its suppliers.
  • There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.

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 Krack “It’s a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:
