Upholding responsible standards

We’re responsible for creating the change we want to see in the world. It starts with establishing an ethical supply chain and taking measurable action toward a healthier planet.

Driving change

From our suppliers to the materials we work with, we are committed to using the power of our data, resources and partnerships to catalyze change.

How we create

We’re committed to providing everyone we serve with products made more sustainably and responsibly.

Responsibly produced

It matters to us that the products we carry are produced with demonstrated efforts to protect workers and the environment.

Stitch Fix vendors

Our vendor relationships are based on shared ethics. Through our Vendor Code of Conduct, our vendors are committed to minimizing their environmental impact & providing working conditions that uphold local labor laws and international standards on worker and human rights.

We take our factory and vendor partnerships very seriously and regularly evaluate workplace conditions, wages, working hours, health & safety, non-discrimination and more through a comprehensive audit process.

Conflict-free minerals

We keep an ethical mineral supply chain by working with vendors to ensure minerals mined in known conflict areas are not used in our products.

We are committed to practices that support the humane treatment of animals. We believe that animals should not suffer for the sake of fashion. To support this goal, we ban the use of animal fur, angora and mohair in all products sold by Stitch Fix.

How we deliver

We use data and bold ideas to deliver our products and operate our business more sustainably.

Inventory management

Stitch Fix was created to understand and serve people as individuals. Our data-driven inventory model helps us deliver on this promise, as well as reduce waste.

  • Our data and style algorithms help us understand what clients want and predict inventory with confidence, allowing us to deliver on our promise to reduce waste by selling through our inventory at higher rates than the industry average.
  • However, when we do have excess inventory, we have partnerships in place to direct products to alternate channels rather than directly to a waste stream.
  • We exist to help people find what they love: clothes they will keep and wear for a long time. Our focus is on client happiness, not pushing products.
