Fairtrade Production

For Spring Summer 2025 , ace&jig has partnered with Projecthrive to create a capsule collection of crochet styles that employed XX artisans for XX artisan workdays. This collaboration provided both economic opportunity and representation to these artisans with virtually no access to education and helped each of them provide for their families.

Crochet is hand made by female artisans who work from home in purdah. These orders are the only opportunity of income for these communities. Crochet is traditional to these communities who create ornate pieces for their wedding trousseaus using this skill. Projecthrive initiative has been capacity building and training these communities and connecting them with socially minded brand such as ace&jig since 2019.

Through the utilization of hand crochet rather than machine crochet, we’ve reduced xx kg of CO2 emissions in the production of these garments.

Through this collaboration by using hand crochet instead of machine crochet we have saved xx Kw of electricity.

The clothes you buy can change lives. By buying this garment from ace&jig you are not only supporting the livelihood of artisans and ensuring that they are paid well and working in a safe environment but you are also helping preserve generational Indigenous textile techniques that would become extinct were they not supported by socially motivated brands.
