Garden Wear by Subpod

We come from grassroots country, where the people wear soil on their hands with pride. Our Garden Wear range is for everyone who spends their days in the dirt and believes in fighting for the planet.

The environmental passion of the ‘60s and ‘70s was carried by the vintage styles we know and love. Now, over 60 years on, the drumming heartbeat of that movement is stronger than ever and calling for greener fashion. We’re bringing soil love back with Subpod Garden Wear.

Made for the future

Crafted from hemp and organic cotton textiles, our line of eco apparel is produced in a Fair Wear certified solar-powered factory. Made to last for years to come, and compost down when the time comes.

Inspired by the past

Peace, love and a better earth. We designed our range in Byron Bay, the heart of Australia’s grassroots capital, where the essence of the 60’s and 70’s environmental movement is still alive and strong.

Our Fabrics

Hemp

Cultivated in the mountains of Northern China, this luxurious textile can be woven soft and fine or thick and durable. Hemp is one of the strongest natural fibres, and its antibacterial, UV resistant properties make it ideal for enduring outdoor garments and accessories.

Hemp is naturally organic and requires no herbicides or pesticides. It’s a high biomass crop that uses 50% less water than conventional cotton and sequesters large amounts of carbon, trapping 1.63 tonnes of CO2 per tonne of hemp harvested. Simply put? Hemp threads help our planet.

100% Organic Cotton

Handpicked with care, organic cotton creates threads that are uniquely strong and velvet soft to the touch. Conventional cotton fibres are damaged before they’re even processed, degraded with harsh chemicals and roughly machine harvested. Organic cotton is the new standard in cotton clothing.

A tee made from regular cotton uses 2,168 gallons of water, where organic cotton uses just 186 gallons, 80% of which comes from rainfall. Pesticide and chemical-free, organic cotton is hypoallergenic, produces 46% less CO2 and guarantees safe working conditions for farmers. If you have a choice, go organic.
