According to AG Jeans, they like to leave everything better than they found it. That’s what prompted them to start their Good Karma initiative. Since 2010, AG has been using ozone technology to improve the way they wash (less water) and dry their jeans (less time). Aside from the way they maintain their jeans, AG also has solar panels on their properties and a water filtration system that recycles their wastewater. This premium denim brand has flattering, durable jeans and is conscientious about the environment. J BrandIMG Source: harrods.com
