Leggings Schelpenkracht

Shells are the gems of the ocean. Connected to the wisdom and power of the element of water, shells show us how wonderful and powerful nature is.

Brand	Female-founded

Hoessee was founded by Tessa. During her work as a designer, she became increasingly interested in sustainable design and how, as a brand, you can contribute to a better world. With this knowledge, she founded Hoessee; where her expertise in designing prints and her love for it comes together in a brand that is committed to having a positive impact on world.

Fair trade: Most of the collection is made in small factories in the Netherlands and Germany. The leggings, shorts and tops are made in the Netherlands in a factory with the OEKO-TEX quality mark. The prints are done in Germany in a studio with fewer than 10 employees. The labels and tags are made in the Netherlands from recycled paper. The T-shirts are made in Bangladesh in a well-known factory. The factory collaborates with the Fair Wear Foundation. The shirts are printed in the Netherlands.

Eco-friendly: Hoessee's clothing is made from a mix of Econyl and Elastane. Only the T-shirts are made from GOTS-certified organic cotton. Hoessee mainly prints digitally, because it saves water and energy. By taking into account how much ink and material would be needed for different designs during the design process, they hardly have any leftovers. The print studio runs entirely on solar energy and natural gas.
