PME Legend is owned by Just Brands.


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

  • It uses few lower-impact materials, and it does not publish an aggregate breakdown of materials used.
  • It uses some recycled packaging.
  • It opts for sea freight shipping over air freight to reduce its climate impacts.
  • 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 PME Legend “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It doesn't disclose where its final production stage occurs.
  • None of its supply chain is certified by crucial labour standards that help ensure worker health and safety, living wages, and other rights.
  • Its Code of Conduct covers ILO principles.
  • 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 PME Legend “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It appears to use leather and wool.
  • It doesn’t appear to use shearling, cashmere, alpaca, mohair, down, exotic animal hair, or exotic animal skin.
  • There’s no evidence it has an animal welfare policy.


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