Founded in 2005 by Nick Savaidis in Melbourne, Australia, Etiko was born from a simple yet powerful vision: to create apparel and footwear free from child labor, worker exploitation, and environmental harm. With no truly ethical clothing brand available at the time, Nick set out to change the industry by building fair, transparent, and sustainable supply chains.
Etiko has since become one of Australia’s leading ethical fashion brands, supporting the rights and livelihoods of cotton growers, rubber tappers, and garment workers across India, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan. Backed by certifications from Fairtrade, B Corp, and the Global Organic Textile Standard, Etiko proves that fashion can be both stylish and responsible—without compromising on ethics or sustainability.
