Sanikai crafts luxury clothing with a clear commitment to ethical and sustainable practices. Hand-sewn by skilled tailors whose names and stories are intimately known by the brand, Sanikai champions personal cooperation. Prototypes emerge from Zurich, with further manufacturing extending to Lucern and North Italy. A standout feature is their Made To Order approach; since 2018, garments are individually crafted based on customers’ measurements. This ensures that each piece isn’t just a product, but a personalized fit, distant from the constraints of mass production.
Their material choices are a testament to their responsibility towards the environment and their wearers. They opt for:
- Organic Cotton (GOTS, KBA)
- Organic Linen (GOTS)
- Recycled PET (NEW LIFE)
- Regenerated Nylon (Econyl®)
- Recycled Cashmere (North Italy origins)
- Recycled or KBT Virgin-Wool, GOTS certified for winter collections.
Further emphasizing their sustainable ethos, buttons derive from natural sources like coconut shell, wood, or corozo, crafted by certified European producers. Sewing threads, recycled from plastic bottles, pair alongside organic cotton threads. And when it comes to patterns, they’re digitally imprinted onto recycled plastic, using vegan dyes in a water and energy-conserving process. This brand seamlessly melds style, individuality, and an unwavering dedication to preserving our planet.
