Lighthouse - white
Recycled t-shirt
Perched on the Gaspesian coast, this lighthouse caught in the middle of a sea storm and swept by northern winds, resists against winds and tides. Inspired by traditional sailor tattoos, our collection of eco-friendly t-shirts was created in collaboration with Montreal graphic artist Fanch (also named the Metro Sketcher).

The responsible fiber
Comfortable and recycled jersey
To encourage the circular economy, we have chosen to use this very comfortable and slightly textured recycled fabric. The polyester fiber is made from post consumer plastic bottles and is RPET certified. This yarn was made and imported from Mexico. | |
The fabric garment is entirely manufactured in USA (knitted, dyed, cut and sew) in the NY state. Then it's screen printed by hand in a small workshop in Montreal in Canada. | |
We only use low impact dyes to reduce water quality impact and waste water of manufacturing. Our dyes do not contain any heavy metals or toxic substances. | |
We provide jobs and help the local economy. We are committed to following all fair labor standards and practices so you can feel more comfortable wearing our apparel. No child labor. |

ORGANIC AND RECYCLED FIBERSIt is time to change the current ways of producing clothes. Prioritizing environmentally friendly techniques is crucial. This is why Swenn has chosen to use only natural, organic and/or recycled fibers, as well as organic or low environmental impact dyes. The durability of our garments is also crucial, which is why we have chosen a superior and extra soft fabric quality. |
GOTS CERTIFIED ORGANIC COTTONOur 100% organic cotton fabric is GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified. GOTS is the world's leading textile processing standard for organic fibers. Our organic cotton therefore respects clear and transparent ecological and social criteria. |
RECYCLED FIBERSTo promote sustainability and encourage the circular economy, we rely on recycled fabrics. The polyester of our 100% recycled fiber t-shirts is made from recycled plastic bottles (RPET certification). |
