About Oxygen 3
“Inspiring discussions of sustainability and environmental responsibility through engaging, wearable art.”
Oxygen3 was started by Michael Stevenson Jr. and Evan Sforza in 2009. Oxygen3 began with the idea to spend time and effort doing something that could make a difference in the relationship between man and nature. After much brainstorming Evan and myself eventually agreed our talents were best suited to create what blossomed into the apparel project called Oxygen3.
Given our objective it was important for us to have a mission statement that would serve as guide for us to follow in the development of Oxygen3. We decided the three most important things we could do were to operate as economically, environmentally and socially responsible as possible. We did this by creating t-shirts and hoodies using the most sustainable materials we could find – 70% Natural Bamboo Fiber and 30% Organic Cotton blend which are printed on using eco-friendly water based inks.
It is the goal of Oxygen3 to produce wearable art that enables the viewer who purchases our product to introduce a reminder into their lives, and into the horizon of everyone who sees them wearing it, that the environment is our most precious commodity, and like oxygen we often take it for granted.
Each print is directly tied to a cause we at Oxygen3 and the designer(s) involved strongly believe in. A non-profit organization related to each design is chosen, and $2 is donated for each shirt sold. In addition to raising money for an important cause, the artist responsible for the design receives a modest royalty for their contribution.
In short it is our aim to do business managing our finances, our product and the message behind it in a way that in the end puts the environment first.
Oxygen3 Apparel
Our t-shirts and hoodies are made from a 70% Natural Bamboo Fiber and 30% Organic Cotton blend and are printed on with eco-friendly water based inks. Not only is our clothing more sustainable, it’s also superior in softness and comfort in comparison to even 100% organic cotton fiber. The spun bamboo breathes better than cotton while wicking away excess moisture on the skin.
