Dutch Designed, Sustainably Made.

At Donders 1860, we work daily to elevate our textile and leather processes, producing quality products that are not only crafted with care but also in ways that are fair, safe, and environmentally conscious. Our commitment is to minimize our impact on nature, collaborating closely with suppliers to protect both people and the planet.

Each piece of Donders 1860 clothing is designed to be an effortless extension of your body, enhancing your comfort experience. Your satisfaction is our passion, and we express that by producing timeless, sustainable products with great attention to material integrity. Our responsibility goes beyond the individual wearer—it extends across the entire process, from our team members and suppliers to transportation and society at large. Donders 1860 acknowledges the impact of its materials on nature and gives leather a renewed purpose, making our products sustainably crafted for the modern world.

In our tanning process, we use eco-conscious methods like vegetable and synthetic tanning, which significantly reduce water and salt consumption. Additionally, we are innovating with olive leaves to make our tanning even more environmentally friendly.

Sustainability is present in every detail of our garments. Many of our components, from zippers and snaps to patches and rivets, are made from recyclable materials. For instance, our signature sleeve patches are crafted from upcycled beer bottle caps, merging creativity with eco-responsibility.
