Wearpact Reviews
You won’t get far in searches for sustainable clothing without hearing of Pact (or WearPact). Their items are made from organic cotton in certified fair trade factories. But are they good quality? I say YES. You can read my specific wearpact reviews below and learn more about the company, but in short – I’m a big fan of their items and the company.

Wearpact Reviews
One thing I will note here is that I first tried a few Pact items about 5 years ago and found them fine but nothing to share about. After all, you all know that I expect quality! The one thing I got from them previously that I loved, however, were some pajamas for my then toddler. They were AMAZING – and if you know toddlers in pjs, you can appreciate my approval. Sturdy, well made. And so it kept me hopeful.
I bought more items from the site about a year or more ago and have really appreciated the quality of every item I’ve purchased – tops, bottoms, and activewear! I think they’ve really stepped up their quality and designs. And I keep buying more as I need to replace items. Sadly, they don’t sell those kids pajamas anymore!
What is Pact Clothing
The great thing about PACT is that all their products are made with organic cotton. You can learn more about why organic cotton is sustainable (and less toxic for you) in my post about organic women’s clothing. So, all their items are made with organic cotton. Some items used recycled materials like nylon. All items are made in fair trade factories. And the company is carbon neutral (donating to sustainability initiatives to offset all their carbon emissions).
The company is based in Boulder, Colorado. They ship around the world, so this isn’t just for American consumers.
Where are Pact Clothes Made
Most items are made outside of the US, primarily in India. The reason for this is that 74% of the world’s organic cotton is grown in India, so instead of harvesting and shipping it elsewhere to produce and then to the US, it’s produced closer to the fields where the material is grown!
Is Pact Clothing Ethical?
All factories used are either fair-trade certified or made somewhere that the country already mandates pay and labor conditions meeting or exceeding the requirements of fair trade certifications. So, yes!
And if you look more into organic cotton, the farmers live in a safer environment as well as saving loads of water from waste. It’s also safer for those living near the farms.
Best WearPact Clothing
ok. So, here are finally my Wearpact reviews on the individual products I love the most. I haven’t tried everything (I will eventually need a new black or white dress and PACT is where I will go)!!
Airplane Collection
About a year ago Wearpact released their airplane collection. Imagine elevated athleisure for a plane ride. Comfortable, stretchy materials in muted hues, flattering cuts, and mix&match styles.
I fist tried their cropped pants and the mock neck shell. The exact pant style has been updated for this year, but this is the mock shell. It’s a soft terrycloth-like feel that’s flattering and not too hot. I wish the neck was a little lower, but I think I have a bigger neck and/or am a child about high necks. Just being honest here.
And then earlier this year, they launched the shorts and short sleeve (dolman sleeve) top in the set and I snatched it up. THEY ARE PERFECT!! The top is available in a few size and color combinations on major sale as are the pull on shorts, but otherwise, I’m expecting this to be re-released in the spring.
Cotton Tanks & Tees
Next up are their organic cotton tees. They have sleeveless, short sleeve, and long sleeve – each in a variety of colors, silhouettes, and necks. I have a few of each (no long sleeves yet) and like them. Tees and tanks get worn in big-time in my life, so these are holding up nicely, which I love. This summer I’ve been living in this featherweight slub tee. I wear one as part of my regular wardrobe and one for working out. So flattering and nice.
I’m also really liking the few pieces of activewear from PACT, including these leggings and their bike shorts (likely rereleased in spring). See more on sustainable activewear.
Twill Pants
Last year I bought a pair of their organic cotton twill pants as outside pants that weren’t too heavy but could handle bending, squatting, and whatever else gardening and life-ing required. These were nicely flattering – stretching a bit with wear but not stretching out. I usually cuff them at the bottom but on cooler days, I leave them all the way down.
Are Pact Clothes Good Quality
Well if it wasn’t obvious with those individual Wearpact reviews – yes, PACT clothes are good quality. I know people are often deterred by the higher price tags of sustainable clothing materials. Because sustainability is so important to me – as is quality, it isn’t a deterrent (I also buy clothes intending to wear them for years to come). But I think Wearpact is great for the price tag, and you can occasionally get exclusive deals…

I love many Pact products although everything doesn’t suit me. I recently bought a jacket and sweats from the Airplane collection. I’d bought a similar set years ago and wasn’t fond of them. I really like the pants and would have liked the jacket if I’d bought the smaller size.
I’ve had zip hoodies from them for years. My lightweight grey one is definitely on its last legs but I’ve found there are variations in many of the items that I can’t quite tell from the online descriptions.
Overall I will continue buying from them.
