Boyish

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 Boyish “Great”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses some lower-impact materials including recycled cotton, however it does not publish an aggregate breakdown of materials used.
• To minimise waste, it recycles all of its textile offcuts.
• It takes meaningful action to reduce emissions from transportation and distribution.
• It produces seasonless collections.
• It uses compostable packaging.

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 Boyish “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It sources its final stage of production from countries with high risk of labour abuse.
• It traces most of its supply chain.
• Its Code of Conduct covers ILO principles.
• It audits some of its supply chain including all of the final production stage.
• 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 Boyish “Great”. It states that its entire product range is vegan and offers some PETA approved products.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Boyish “Great” overall.
