HEY THERE!
Welcome to R.O.O.T. - Running Out Of Time. We’re stoked to have you here!
​
Our mission is to promote sustainability and conservation locally and globally by donating 20% of gross profits from every sale to the world’s leading environmental advocacy groups. You can see every charity and organization that we support here. We aim to educate the world about the importance of protecting and caring for mother earth.
Our Goal
We hope to empower the next generation of conservationists and climate activists to protect the world we love. We seek to do this by educating the public, using our fun and unique designs to spark conversation without creating a feeling of “climate doom,” and donating a portion of every sale to the world’s leading environmental advocacy groups.
​
Nature and wildlife are admired by all, but they can’t be taken for granted. More people, more resources, less funding for environmental groups, and a changing climate mean that the earth we love is under pressure and we’re running out of time to make a change.
Sustainability
Sustainability is our top priority. Our products are ethically sourced and sustainably made in sweatshop-free facilities that are certified by WRAP (Worldwide Responsible Accredited Production).
Our clothing manufacturers produce virtually zero waste because they recycle everything that can’t be turned into clothing. The facilities are solar-powered, use eco-friendly dyes, and use efficient machines that require 7x less water than the average clothing manufacturer, and they filter and recycle the water that is used.
Having our products be made to order, combined with ethically sourced and sustainably made garments, has created opportunities to further reduce the waste and impacts within the apparel supply chain.
Even our stickers are eco-friendly! Not only are they made with certified eco-solvent inks and a recyclable paper backing, they're also completely weatherproof, and completely removable & reusable! Yes, really!
