When the term ‘sustainability’ came in the denim sector, the manufacturers started to say that they are green without any proper authentication which makes thing harder for the real practicing people. This is true that achieving 100% sustainability in the denim sector is not possible but by practicing, it could be taken to a certain level. Shasha is exactly doing that thing and ethically they own this concept. Abdun Naser also added that, “We don’t prefer to use the term ‘sustainability’ as a marketing tool rather we want to contribute more in this journey to the greener world.” Read More: Denim industry should follow sustainable supply chain Shasha also wants to keep their activities transparent for all stakeholders so that no one raises the question. They believe that sustainability and fashion should go parallelly. Because without fashion, people won’t buy products whatever it is sustainable or not!
