Our commitment

We believe Gap should be a force for good. We continue to work towards creating change that enriches communities, supports our people, and considers this generation and the next.

We design products with more recycled materials and more organic cotton, use water-saving initiatives when producing our denim and chinos, and strive to make a positive impact for our people and our planet.

How we’ll do this

From water to wash, fibre to factory, our goal is to make the clothes you live in - but do it with more respect for the planet we all share. We’re not perfect. But we promise to lead, not react. To use less, not more.
