We're Green
100% Organic Cotton
All of our t-shirts are made from 100% organic cotton, which means that no harmful pesticides or fertilizers were used in growing the cotton. Conventional cotton ranks third behind corn and soybeans in total amount of pesticides used with 55 million pounds sprayed annually. All of that harmful pesticide is getting into the ground, water, and air. You can feel good wearing an Arche Tree shirt that not only feels good, but is good for the environment.
Low Impact Fiber Reactive Dyes
The dye used to color our shirts contains no heavy metals, and with an absorption rate of over 70 percent there is less waste water runoff. Our shirts are also finished without the use of optical brighteners (bleach).
Water-Based Inks
Unlike traditional plastisol inks which are commonly used in t-shirts, the water-based inks ATC uses contain no PVC or phthalates. This makes the inks an environmentally friendly choice, PLUS they feel great! The ink blends in with the fibers of the shirt for an incredibly soft/natural feel.
[Plus] One Tree
For every t-shirt sold, ATC will plant an indigenous tree in a non-harvesting location with the help of Colorado-based Plant-It 2020, a non-profit foundation.
Made 100% in the U.S.A

Funny how well the logo stayed intact after all that eco-friendly ink hit the shirt...
