# Fiber to Finish

## INNOVATION FROM THE YARN UP

We're constantly innovating new colors, fabrications and silhouettes. From our eco-friendly knits and organics to our classic, athletic-inspired cuts, we design and innovate each product with authenticity, wearability and our consumers' needs in mind.

![ProcessShots-9.jpg](https://blog.wholesale.alternativeapparel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/ProcessShots-9.jpg?width=832&height=666&name=ProcessShots-9.jpg)Our methods and materials match our customers' shared values, consciousness and lifestyle. We put fabric first, creating timeless, authentically worn-in styles that modern creatives want to wear today, tomorrow and the day after. Designed in Atlanta, Ga, we source the finest fibers and develop the softest blends for comfort and durability, incorporating organic and recycled materials whenver possible.

Then, we use low-impact dyes, washes with reclaimed water, certified organic cotton, recycled polyester, biodegradable fabric softeners and natural enzymes to creat our one-of-a-kind washes and super-soft finishes.

Alternative is a tight-knit tribe of doers who work in sync to share stories, art, and a tedious focus on the impact we have on the clothing lifecycle.
