UNIQLO only uses sustainably sourced down and feathers from farms that
seek to minimize their impact on wildfowl. All of our partner garment
factories involved in the production of our down products are
RDS (Responsible Down Standard) certified as of the end of 2019 and
we will continue to support the RDS going forward.
*We use recycled down and feathers include UNIQLO down products which sold before 2019.
UNIQLO supports the Responsible Down Standard (RDS)
