Hi John,

Do you know we have a Greenpeace branded clothing webshop? It’s not something we tend to shout about, as we’re busy telling you about our projects (like standing up to Shell, confronting deep sea mining vessels at sea or calling on Labour to honour their green spending promise). With free UK shipping available all weekend, it’s a good time to check it out.

Every Greenpeace item in store directly funds our work and is a guaranteed conversation starter about the things you care about. Right now it’s more important than ever to talk about our precious world. Your t-shirt, jumper or tote bag could inspire more people to take the action the natural world desperately needs.

As it’s the gifting season, we want to make sure you know all about our sustainable goodness in store. Not only good for the gifting, but also for the people who make our clothing, the land that grows the materials, and much more. So stay tuned…

The Greenpeace shop features a range of carefully curated sustainable apparel, from classic tees, to supersoft jumpers and hoodies, tote bags and babygrows. This weekend we’re also offering free UK shipping, so it’s a great time to get gifts for the people on your list. Check out our festive gift guide for plenty of ideas.

When you shop with Greenpeace your gift goes the extra mile, because you’re not only shopping for yourself, a friend or family member, you’re also directly funding our initiatives. With this funding, we can continue to investigate, document, lobby and take peaceful action to expose environmental abuse and champion solutions to defend our climate, oceans and forests for all life on Earth. Our Greenpeace Shop helps fund, and spread important messages about, the work we need to do for a green and peaceful future.

In the last year, over 26,000 people bought branded clothing from our store! That’s tens of thousands of people out there, starting important conversations in their communities, facilitated by a simple t-shirt (or hoodie, or tote!).

Christmas Jumpers

While many Christmas jumpers are made with plastic fibres like polyester and often worn only once before they end up in landfill, ours are different: made with certified organic cotton and designed to be something you can wear again and again, throughout the winter.  

Shop our festive designs this weekend and get free shipping with your order. And, because everything is printed on demand, every festive print is available in adult, kids and babygrow sizing. It also happens to be shipped in paper packaging that looks good enough to pop straight under the tree. Our packaging is sturdy enough for several reuses, and even looks good after it’s coloured in.

Here’s Greenpeace staff members (from left to right) Henry (Creative Campaigner), Alice (Direct Marketing Executive), Gurvinder (Fundraising Executive) (that's me!), Konstantina (Digital Analyst) and Tom (Supporter Development Manager) repping their favourite Christmas designs! 

Sustainable by design

We've been campaigning for many years to change the textile industry’s reliance on hazardous chemicals and now that the textiles industry is on its way to being Detox-ed [1], we’re excited to be working with Teemill who show the world how it should be done, making t-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts and even tote bags for Greenpeace that meet the highest environmental and social standards. [2]

Everything is made from certified organic cotton, in factories powered by renewable energy, and shipped to you in plastic-free packaging. And because everything is printed moments after the order is placed, we avoid any excess stock being wasted.

Everything is designed to be taken back and made into new products once it's worn out, through the Remill process. Over the years, through Greenpeace customers returning worn out items, we’ve recovered and diverted 997kg from landfill, preventing 27,257kg of CO2 emissions and saving 17 million litres of water.  

This year’s bestsellers

We are always adding to and refining our collection of unique designs, to give Greenpeace supporters a way to stand up for the issues that inspire them. Our big music campaign of the summer, Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow, was a huge hit. The Climate Stripes (created by Prof. Ed Hawkins, National Centre for Atmospheric Science, University of Reading) has proved popular, offering an important illustration of our planet’s rising temperatures.

Whether you want to simply resist, emphasise peace & love, celebrate the actions made possible by our Rainbow Warrior, or show your love for oceans, ammonites or orangutans, we have a wealth of choices in store.

We hope you’ll choose to shop with us this Christmas, and give a gift that keeps on giving. Check out the Greenpeace shop today and make the most of our freepost offer this weekend.
