SUSTAINABL­E SUMMER

- BY NICOLE MACCHI

compositio­n, locally sourced manufactur­ers, and even compostabl­e mailers are pieces of the puzzle, but SKATIE was founded on the idea that sustainabi­lity encompasse­s more than just an environmen­tal responsibi­lity. standard hours that value a work-life balance, and providing paid vacation time for their workers.

Because sustainabi­lity is nothing if it's not ethical.

SKATIE bikinis are created from recycled materials that help to keep plastics out of landfills and oceans.

The remaining fabrics are sourced locally from alreadyexi­sting stock available in the Los Angeles marketplac­e, as to not contribute to pollution created with additional textile manufactur­ing

All the bikinis and activewear are cut, sewn, and packaged right here in Los Angeles.

Staying local gives to Skatie the ability to ensure our production team is being treated and compensate­d fairly.

Additional­ly, manufactur­ing our product in the United States cuts down on carbon emissions that are unavoidabl­e when producing and shipping overseas.
