Our Mission:
Leave the world a better place and inspire others to do the same.
That's it. Our mission is simple. Climate change is an existential threat and we want to do our part to ensure a healthy planet for future generations. That's why we named the brand Planet Legacy.
Legacy is something received from an ancestor or something from the past. Let's make sure our posterity appreciates the legacy of the planet they inherit. We're working to take care of the planet by sourcing recycled and sustainable apparel. Everything from our fabrics to our decoration methods to our shipping materials are environmentally responsible. On top of that, we plant a tree for every item we sell.

Why Apparel? The apparel and fashion industry has been extremely harmful on the environment.
All apparel should be sustainable. Here's why.
We’ve all done it: bought a wild shirt that’s right on-trend, but all while knowing it won’t be a staple of your wardrobe for long. That trendy item is typically not made well, either, limiting the time you’ll keep it. That’s fast fashion, and the impact of fast fashion is global.
What is fast fashion?
fast fashion noun
an approach to the creation of clothing that emphasizes making fashion trends quickly and cheaply available to consumers
How Fast Fashion Hurts the Planet
- Fashion is responsible for up to one-fifth of industrial water pollution
- Wastewater from clothing production is often carcinogenic chemicals, dyes, and more
- Synthetic clothing materials like acrylic release 730,000 synthetic particles per wash; these microfibers are said to make up 85% of human-made waste on shorelines
- The fashion industry produces 10% of global carbon emissions–more than all international flights and maritime shipping
What You Can Do to Fight Fast Fashion
- Don't buy clothing unless you actually need it
- Buy well-made clothing items you need in timeless styles
- Shop with clothing brands that use eco-friendly, recycled materials
- Upcycle fast fashion items you don’t wear anymore
