Wear the Change

Discover the Earthwise Collection, where fashion meets eco-consciousness. With Vantage Apparel, you're not just choosing sustainable fashion; you're becoming part of a movement towards a greener tomorrow.

Contribute to a Greater Cause

Striving for a cleaner and more sustainable future with each garment we create, our Earthwise Collection showcases garments made from REPREVE®, one of the most certified earth-friendly fibers available in the world. Made with high-quality, recycled polyester yarns from 100% recycled materials, including post-consumer plastic bottles, each piece sold offers a give-back component through our partnership with 1% For the Planet. This global movement inspires businesses and individuals to support environmental solutions through annual memberships and everyday actions. We have pledged to donate 1% of sales from every REPREVE® garment, as well as the Denali Jacket, to nonprofit organizations focused on environmental causes. You can help make a difference one purchase at a time. With every REPREVE® piece your customers wear, they join a larger story—a story in which we help prevent water bottles from ending up in our oceans and landfills.

Making Waves to Save Our Seas

When it came time to choose our 1% partner, we looked for organizations whose efforts aligned with our goal to reduce plastic waste from entering our landfills and oceans. Clean Ocean Action, a New Jersey-based nonprofit organization, was chosen not only for their dedication to protecting beaches and waterways but also for their locality, which allowed Vantage members to participate in community events like Beach Sweeps along the New Jersey coastline, which take place twice a year. The annual Beach Sweep, which started in 1985, has since had a total of over 133,390 volunteers participate in the removal of 6,742,941 pieces of harmful and unsightly debris.

Together, we've not only achieved but far exceeded our corporate goal, transforming the equivalent of 1.5 million plastic bottles through recycling initiatives. This milestone is more than a number—it's a testament to the collective power of our community in making significant strides toward sustainability. Every purchase you make continues to push us closer to our next ambitious target: removing 2 million plastic bottles from the ocean. Let's keep raising the bar for what it means to be truly sustainable.
