Big Bud Press is a fast-growing Los Angeles based clothing label specializing in unisex, everyday goods. We pride ourselves on our ethical and local manufacturing practices. We are sweatshop free and independently audit all of our manufacturing partners.

We have an internal "Eyes-On" production policy-- We visit every arm of our manufacturing processes at bare minimum once per week but in most cases, every single day. This is to ensure that not only is everything being made to our highest standards, but that our manufacturers continue working to the high ethics standards that we require. In addition to this, we work with independent compliance firms to audit ourselves and our manufacturing partners every 90 days to ensure our standards are being met. We are sweatshop free and do not work with any factories who participate in piece-work pay. These audits also help to continue to ensure this for us behind the scenes.

By the end of 2022 we met our goal of using only fabrics that are made in america. A large percentage of our fabric is made from cotton grown and processed domestically. We also use some fabrics made with GOTS certified and domestically grown organic cotton. All of our knit fabrics are made locally in the surrounding Los Angeles area. The rest is made throughout the country. We use almost exclusively 100% cotton fabrics and any non-cotton fabrics we use are comprised of recycled yarns. We use low impact and non-toxic dyes in our dye processes. Any screen printing ink we use is waterbased. Our zippers, elastic, woven labels, tack buttons and snaps are made in america. The buttons we use are made in both america and some in Italy.

We have an open-air warehouse so storing our garments in poly-bags is a must to avoid environmental debris and dust. We use 100% recycled poly bags for everything-- clear bags for storage, mailers for packages, etc. We hope to switch to something even more sustainable in the future-- we are always looking into new options that work for both our needs and the safety, storage, and transport of the garments.

We work hard to make a product you can feel confident in-- not only when you wear it, but knowing where it comes from and how its been made. We work very hard to make something for as many people as possible.
