We love these products, and we hope you do too. E! has affiliate relationships, so we may get a small share of the revenue from your purchases. Items are sold by the retailer, not E!.

Now more than ever before, people are looking more closely at the companies they buy from. Voting with your dollar is real, and it’s pushing the retail industry to make big changes.

If you’re looking for ethical brands that go the extra mile while offering awesome home textiles, workout gear, high fashion and more to help you round out your gifting, look no further than this list. We’ve rounded up a handful of our favorites, sharing why we love them, and the products we love most.

Ready to cast your vote in support of some next-level, do-good brands? Here we go!

Champ Printed Eco-Fleece Sweatshirt

This super soft and stylish sweatshirt is some of the best Alternative Apparel has to offer, made with organic and recycled materials. But the company doesn’t stop there. Their mailers are oxo-biodegradable, their factories are WRAP-certified and adhere to Fair Labor Association guidelines, and in addition to organic and recycled materials, they use low-impact dyes and water-conserving washes.

Horizontal Set Opal Necklace

Jewelry, or work of art? How about both? Each Melissa Joy Manning piece is handmade to order using a zero-waste design process, recycled materials, and sustainably-sourced stones. As if that’s not enough, her production studio is certified Green by the State of California. We’re in love with this necklace, featuring a teardrop-shaped opal hanging from a 16 to 18-inch adjustable chain. What better way to embrace Classic Blue, Pantone’s 2020 Color of the Year?

TechSweat 7/8 Zoom Leggings

Instagram favorite Outdoor Voices has probably caught your eye before. It’s hard to ignore their gorgeously bold workout gear, like these TechSweat 7/8 Zoom Leggings in what they call Raspberry, Scarlet and Mustang. But there’s more to OV than style—they’re committed to sustainability in fabrics, using recycled packaging, implementing environmental consciousness across the company, and finding new ways to go the extra eco-mile.

Lofty Metallic Down Jacket

Another Corporation B company, Athleta believes in empowering women and girls, and committing to a more sustainable future. In 2019, 60% of their materials are made with sustainable fibers, 4% of products are made using water-saving techniques, and 70% of their waste from shipping packaging has been diverted from landfills. Support their mission by nabbing this otherworldly down jacket, sure to keep you warm—even though it’s lightweight.
