Girlfriend Collective may have the most thorough ethical statement I've ever seen. This is an activewear company just starting up with very high standards. Here's just a taste of what they have to say for themselves:
~"Our factories, certified SA8000, use zero forced or child labor, and always provide living wages and safe conditions."
~"Our polyester yarn is made from 100% recycled post-consumer water bottles."
Currently Girlfriend Collective's single offering is a pair of leggings, but those leggings reveal the amount conviction these designers are willing to pour into the production of their products still to come. Girlfriend Collective is using a SA8000 certified factory (whose standards are thoroughly explained on the website) and fabric certified Standard 100 by Oeko-Tex and also by Bluesign®.
This article provides a little more insight into the brand's origins and future as well.
AND... right now Girlfriend Collective is offering their leggings free with the cost of shipping, so if you are in need... :)
