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


Shaina Mote's environment rating is 'good'. It uses a medium proportion of eco-friendly materials including organic cotton. It reuses its offcuts to minimise textile waste. Its use of eco-friendly materials limits the amount of chemicals, water and wastewater used in production.

Its labour rating is 'it's a start'. Most of its final stage of production is undertaken in the USA, a medium risk country for labour abuse. It states it has a Code of Conduct but does not publicly share it. There is no evidence it ensures payment of a living wage in its supply chain. It visits most of its suppliers.

Its animal rating is 'not good enough'. There is no evidence it has an animal welfare policy. It uses leather, wool and exotic animal hair. It does not use fur, down, angora or exotic animal skin.

Shaina Mote is rated 'It's a start' overall.
