Sustainability: Our Holistic Approach

Throughout our century-long history, high-quality materials and timeless products have been at the heart of our operations. We aim to create clothing that will bring joy in both quality and style, year after year. At Nanso, we take a holistic approach to sustainability and are committed to acting responsibly, transparently, and in alignment with our ethical principles.
Our sustainability efforts are focused on three key areas: products, people and the environment.

Signature Styles. Since 1921.

Nanso’s story began with the production of underwear. From the very beginning, our products were crafted to be feather-soft,
with a strong focus on quality and durability. In the 1930s, the collection expanded into daywear that Nanso is still known for today.

Over its more than 100-year history, Nanso has experienced many chapters — but the commitment to comfort and longevity has
remained at the heart of everything we do. With 100 years of design expertise, we design clothes you’ll always want to wear.
