Other stores in Tulsa began to carry bamboo almost immediately. We at eco baby + kids, however, had some reservations due to the chemicals used to turn the bamboo into a spin-able fiber. After some time and research we have come to the conclusion that a few companies are acting responsibly using technology that allows for the capture and recycling these caustic chemicals.
One of those companies is Kicky Pants, a wonderfully soft line of ecologically responsible clothing for babies and toddlers. Another concern associated with bamboo is that it all, basically, comes from China and that brings forth issues of unfair labor. But again we did our vetting and found Kicky Pants founder, a student of the environmental sciences, to be very on top of only using factories that treat their employees well and with dignity.
With that we welcome another material and line to our growing selection of eco friendly options for babies and young children in the Tulsa, Oklahoma area and online.
Eco baby + kids carries Kicky Pants ultra soft, silky and very cute footies, jumpers, onesies, tops, pants, and outfits. We are absolutely in love with their sweet designs and soft fabric. Come by and feel them for yourself!
