The seller is responsible to the buyer that the goods are free of defects upon receipt. In particular, the seller is responsible to the buyer that at the time the buyer took over the goods (i) the goods have the properties that the parties have agreed upon or that the seller or the manufacturer has described or that the buyer expected with regard to the nature of the goods, (ii) the goods are suitable for the purpose that for its use the seller states or for which the goods of this kind are usually used and (iii) the goods comply with the requirements of legal regulations. If a defect becomes apparent within six months of receipt, it is considered that the goods were already defective upon receipt. 

2.2 If the buyer, when concluding the purchase contract, acts as part of his business activity (or if the buyer is not a consumer), the period for exercising rights from defective performance for goods is 12 months. 

2.3 In the event that the purchase contract, warranty certificate (conditions), advertisement or product packaging specify different lengths of the warranty period, the longest period applies.

2.4 In the event that the goods do not meet the above requirements, the buyer has the right to delivery of new goods without defects, if this is not unreasonable due to the nature of the goods. If the defect concerns only a part of the thing, the buyer can only demand the replacement of the part; if this is not possible, he can withdraw from the contract and demand a full refund of the purchase price. However, if this is disproportionate due to the nature of the defect, especially if the defect can be removed without undue delay, the buyer has the right to remove the defect free of charge.

The buyer has the right to a reasonable discount even if the seller is unable to deliver new goods without defects, replace its parts or repair the goods, as well as if the seller does not remedy the situation within a reasonable time or if the remedy would cause significant difficulties for the buyer.

2.7 In the event of recognition of a manufacturing or material defect in the goods, the goods will be repaired free of charge or the seller will ensure the delivery of new goods without defects.

1. We are not sustainable, we are responsible

Like you, we are tired of how sustainable everyone is these days. What does sustainability really mean? How is it measured? 100% love? Yes. 100% sustainability? Illusion. For us, sustainability is a term without content. For us, responsibility is a term we understand and follow. Every part of our production and sales chain is a reason for us to improve. For us, every customer is a responsibility that we fulfill with love and joy.

2. We believe in natural materials

We believe that our bodies deserve the best and so does the planet. Organic cotton, silk and cashmere are the 3 basic materials we work with. We try to gradually add more innovative biomaterials to our assortment that are gentle on nature and the human body.

3. We use 100% materials

Nothing is 100%, but 100% materials are much easier to recycle than a combination of different materials. An ordinary cotton t-shirt, which is made of low-quality cotton and improved with additives such as elastane, is much more difficult to recycle than a 100% cotton t-shirt. We use 100% high quality materials, to which there is no need to add other synthetic elements. These materials are ideal for recycling.

4. If we use synthetic materials, then always recycled ones.

We already know that nothing is 100%, so sometimes it is necessary to use a synthetic material, otherwise we would create a product with such properties that no one would wear it. And such a product is a waste of resources. But if we use synthetic material, then always recycled to minimize the need to produce new artificial fibers.

5. We produce locally

We don't want to contribute to pointless global transport routes where one t-shirt travels three different continents before reaching its owner. For us, local does not necessarily mean production in the country where we are based. Cotton fiber doesn't grow in the Highlands, and cashmere goats don't run around the yard on the Little Side. By manufacturing in Ulaanbaatar, we support local business and fight against the export of raw cashmere by Chinese traffickers who then mix it with wool and pass it off as 100% cashmere. Production in Portugal gives us the opportunity to use modern technologies in factories whose production is based on responsible principles and experience with biomaterials. Production in the Czech Republic is ideal for our limited collections, which require direct supervision.

6. We are building a circular economy

It is absolutely essential for us to destroy the linear principle of mass production: make - use - throw away. Instead, we want everything we make to last as long as possible. We support second-hand sales, we want to participate in swap events and we are thinking about creating a JUSTLOVE rental company. We send all the clothes we make to be recycled into textile fibers. We want natural wealth to be treated with respect and dignity, we want to change linearity to circularity and establish the principle: produce - use - recycle.

7. We innovate through technology

Just because you love nature doesn't mean you can't love technology. For us, technology is a fascinating world that allows us to make the real world of the fashion industry better. For the design of our limited silk collection, we used 3D visualizations for the first time. These will allow cutting errors to be removed before it is physically cut into the fabric. This eliminates the need to create sets of prototypes and consume a lot of materials and energy. Other areas in which we invest are recycling, the creation of innovative materials and the development of AI technologies, which are used, for example, to create so-called virtual cabins. These simulate how the given piece of clothing would look directly on your figure.
