What Are the Risks of Making Unsupported Eco-Friendly Activewear Claims?

Unsupported eco-friendly claims can mislead buyers and create legal or reputational exposure.

Sustainability statements should be specific, bounded, and supported by evidence for the actual product. Recycled content, durability, chemical assessment, and labor conditions describe different attributes; do not turn proof of one feature into a broad claim that the whole garment or factory has superior environmental performance. Replace broad wording with verified specific facts.
