Made in Australia
We are an Australian owned and operated clothing company have been since 2019.

We participate with our local industry by making our clothes in Perth and Melbourne. We are proud to have always worked directly with individual professional sewists, not with factories. This allows us to develop meaningful relationships with everyone involved in our process. Working directly means full autonomy over production rates based on a living Australian wage.

Packaging
Orders are packaged in simple, compostable and recyclable materials.

Preorder
Preorder is a sustainable practice which enables us to make for each customer and avoid excessive wastage.

For Preorder items, allow 1 - 2 weeks for your order to be cut, sewn, pressed and packaged for you.

If you are needing something sooner, we may be able to accomodate - please get in touch hello@shannonmalone.com.au

Deadstock 
Deadstock fabric is the material left over from our past production or by other brands. The practice of using deadstock prevents fabric from ending up in landfill, being burnt or just taking up space.

We purchase fabric small quantities of deadstock fabric, keeping each Shannon Malone piece very unique and covetable.

During the cutting process, there is also some fabric that is cut away and saved. Every few months we assess what is leftover from this process the saved pieces of fabric and decide what we can produce with them.

Merino
We only use premium, sustainable and cruelty-free ZQ Certified Merino made in New Zealand.

Only select New Zealand Merino farmers live by the ZQ Certified Program and are routinely audited by a 3rd party to ensure high standards.

New Zealand Merino sheep thrive on pastures under strict free range conditions in the mountainous conditions of South Island. Healthy Merino sheep naturally produce the best quality fibre, the ZQ Program requires growers to look after animals with five basic freedoms

• Free from thirst
• Free to live naturally
• Free from discomfort
• Free from distress
• Free from disease

Hemp
Hemp is a 'bast' fibre like its cousin, flax. It grows quickly and is resistant to insects. It requires little water to grow. Hemp has a deep root system, helping to reduce soil loss and erosion. For hemp production, herbicides aren't needed. It also reduces insects, so no pesticides are needed. Cotton uses around four times as much water as hemp processing. The fibre is naturally UV resistent and is known for its anti-bacterial and anti-mold qualities.

Recycled
The recycled fabric we use is upcycled, chemical-free, circular and entirely natural.

Recycling natural fabrics without chemicals begins with sorting post-industrial waste from local garment factories, grounding these scraps back into fiber, to then spin these once again into new yarns to weave and upcycle new fabrics that can eventually return to the earth.
