US brand Toad&Co creates socially and environmentally committed clothing that’s versatile enough for work and play and designed to make you feel as good as you look.
Focusing on things that matter
Toad&Co is big on enjoying the simple things in life and embracing the unexpected. This philosophy allows the brand to steer its energy towards focusing on things that matter when producing its comfy clothes, like sourcing lower-impact materials, partnering with cleaner factories, and looking for new ways to do more with less.
We may not take ourselves too seriously, but our footprint is serious business. From the beginning, we’ve committed to minimising our environmental impact.
Lower-impact materials
Opting for more eco-friendly materials is one of the core ways brands can address their impact on the planet, and Toad&Co has committed to creating clothing you can feel good about since the beginning. “Sustainable materials make a world of difference,” the brand says. “We use organic cotton, recycled fibres, and other high-quality materials known for low-impact growing and clean manufacturing.”
The brand’s selection of “eco materials” includes organic cotton, hemp, TENCEL™ Lyocell, Lenzing Modal®, and recycled fabrics like wool, cotton, and polyester. It also looks to third party clothing certifications like bluesign®, OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100, and Global Organic Textile Standard.
Supporting individuals with disabilities
In 1996, Toad&Co partnered with Search, Inc. to co-found the Planet Access Company, a full-functioning warehouse that trained and employed up to 70 adults with disabilities annually.
Determined not to stop at the front door, the brand also co-founded Search for Adventure in 2004, a unique travel program to facilitate vacations for adults with disabilities.
Over 20 years later, the social venture partnership has evolved—and includes a flagship store in Chicago, a program called Visibility Arts that nurtures creativity through sharing Search, Inc. artist’s work, neurodiversity and disability awareness training, and an expanded Search for Adventure program.
Shop favourites from Toad&Co’s new collection

Activewear can be manufactured more cleanly, too (hey, recycled polyester and bluesign® certification). These joggers combine buttery softness with forgiving stretch and anti-odour coverage, and will run, jump, or climb to find the best view or tastiest taco.
