    I am the founder of the brand, and I am giving 4 stars. Hope customers will be able to soon review it on this amazing website as many are already doing on Trustpilot. Why 4 stars? My point of view in the improvement box.

    Feedback

    Opera Campi is not a perfect brand, since we are very innovative. Any product we make is made from the yarn, we don't buy fabrics, we buy yarns, and sometimes even plants. Since we are in Italy, we can follow the process from the start. This means it's extremely difficult, a level of difficulty that surpasses most brands that just buy standard fabrics, cut them, and deliver the products. Difficulty means more imperfection. Our products won't look like your latest pair of recycled neat polyester, or like the beautiful Cashmere jumper of the 57th color. Our product won't look artisanal either. They look pure and innovative. We use Hemp in a way nobody uses, that's why we are not perfect. But our imperfection demonstrates our quality, our craftmanship, our innovation. I'll give 5 stars once we'll be able to reach with Hemp the same "neat, professional look" a cotton/polyester/cashmere garment can be able to reach.

    PANGAIA

    Real sustainability is not part of Pangaia. - Marketing makes 90% of sustainability of Pangaia - Envelope used for the shipment is not 100% compostable as they say on the website, it's only partly compostable - Their mentality boosts fast fashion which is the real cause of fashion pollution. They continuously present new products, new colors, new collaborations, new materials. This increases stressful brand awareness, consumism, dyeing pollution - their materials are not durable, despite the high price. Recently purchased the seaweed t-shirt, I am using it as pijama since it's not really wearable even in the most informal occasions - their declarations about materials are not 100% truth, you can just see it because they never show an image of their process. Seaweed is a patented yarn used by specific brand, grape leather has been criticized to not be real 100% grape leather (search on Google). From this points, I gave 2 stars. I would have given 1, but I have given 2 because the effort and the advertisement Pangaia is making is very helpful and representative to raise awareness among young people, any brand should present itself like Pangaia, but their actions and products are just not sustainable as they say.
