Cotopaxi is named after the world’s highest active volcano located in Ecuador. The landscapes around Cotopaxi are teeming with llamas, clear mountain streams, and an endless network of trails.

The brand’s founder, Davis Smith, has lived in several Latin American countries, gaining firsthand insight into the hardships faced by underprivileged people. Cotopaxi’s mission includes providing fair opportunities to the disadvantaged, including ensuring fair labor conditions.

The manufacturer uses “deadstock” surplus materials in some of its products, which are leftover fabrics from the textile industry that would otherwise go unused. This practice reduces the carbon footprint of individual products by up to 30%. The products are also designed for real-world use: the materials and construction are long-lasting, which significantly contributes to the sustainability of the production process.

Cotopaxi has managed to bring its carbon footprint index down to below one percent, with future plans to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

In its production, Cotopaxi is committed to the UN’s sustainable development principles, annual inspections of material manufacturers and factories, and ethical trade principles. The manufacturer also aims to increase the use of Fair Trade certified partners.
