Overall rating: Good

Our ratings are based on a scale from 1 (We avoid) to 5 (Great)


Our “Planet� rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions and wastewater to business models and product circularity. Here we rate Miakoda “Great�. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses a high proportion of lower-impact materials including organic cotton.
  • Its use of lower-impact materials minimises chemicals, water, and wastewater in production.
  • It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.
  • To minimise waste, it reuses most of its textile offcuts.

Workers� rights are central to our “People� rating, which assess brands� policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate Miakoda “Good�. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Its final production stage happens in the USA, a medium risk country for labour abuse.
  • There's no evidence it has a Code of Conduct
  • It traces most of its supply chain.
  • It’s not clear if it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.
  • There's no evidence it audits its suppliers.

Since Miakoda makes products generally free of animal-derived materials, we’ve not rated its impact on animals. Its overall rating is based on people and planet.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Miakoda “Good� overall.
