Offbeat Sweetie is an Australian family-owned footwear business that says it aims to leave the world better than it found it. Its sustainability approach centres on making products on demand rather than mass-producing them, in order to minimise textile waste and avoid unsold items ending up in landfill. The brand also says it works with makers using ethical practices and will not work with anyone known to use child labour, sweatshops or other exploitative practices. In addition, it describes community involvement through volunteering at Pride events and donating items to people going through tough times.

Offbeat Sweetie Sustainability Actions

Made-on-demand production

As part of our commitment to sustainability, we minimise textile waste by making our products on demand instead of following the traditional retail model of mass-producing products. By only producing our items after they have been purchased, we avoid the common retail problem of unsold items ending up in landfill.

Ethical manufacturing

Like many footwear businesses, our products are made in China, the footwear manufacturing capital of the world. But we challenge the "Made In China" stigma by working with experts who produce beautifully crafted products using ethical practices. The Canadian owner of the company that makes most of our products spent over a year in China, working closely with the factories to ensure that everything produced is high quality and that everything within the factories is above board.

No exploitative labour

We will never work with anyone who is known to use child labour, sweatshops or other exploitative practices that are in breach of the Labour Law of the People's Republic of China.
