Stanley/Stella — premium organic cotton for brand- and sustainability-aware clients
Belgian brand focused on organic cotton and circular fashion. Since 2012 the reference for brands wanting to claim sustainability at product level without compromising look and feel. We are an official distributor — the entire SS26 collection of 200+ styles is available through us.
Official Stanley/Stella distributor
Stanley/Stella works exclusively through a network of official distributors. We’re part of that network with direct access to the complete SS26 collection, the stock systems and all official brand assets (colour charts, datasheets, factsheets).
- Stanley = men's model (e.g. Stanley Presenter T-shirt, Stanley Climber jacket, Stanley Coaster polo)
- Stella = women's model (e.g. Stella Muser T-shirt, Stella Climber jacket, Stella Coaster polo)
- Single word = unisex (e.g. Creator 2.0, Cruiser 2.0, Prepster, Bomber 2.0)
This makes team apparel projects with men’s, women’s and unisex versions in one line easy — all three match visually.

Which decoration fits?
Stanley/Stella fabric works exceptionally well with all decoration techniques — the cloth is densely woven and accepts ink without bleeding.
- Water-based screen-printing is the favourite for premium merch — gives an undetectable in-fabric print that aligns with the fabric's sustainable chain. Particularly nice on the organic cotton models.
- Plastisol screen-printing for opaque colours on dark textiles.
- Discharge screen-printing for soft, dyed-look effect on dark cotton — fitting for premium fashion brands.
- Embroidery on polos (Prepster, Coaster), sweats, hoodies, jackets and headwear. Up to 15 colours.
- DTF and transfers for small runs or full-colour work from 1 piece.
- Sublimation not recommended — Stanley/Stella is cotton-based. For sublimation we use polyester brands.
Practical
Quantities:
Stanley/Stella is in stock in standard colours and sizes. Screen-printing requires 25+ pieces per design; DTF and embroidery from 1 piece. For large runs (250+) we often supply directly from a central Stanley/Stella warehouse to our workshop.
Textile lead time:
blank textile usually within 1 working day at us. Niche colours or sizes may take 2-3 working days extra.
Decoration lead time:
1–3 weeks depending on technique, design complexity and run size.
Documentation:
on request we supply GOTS, Fair Wear and B-Corp certification documentation for projects with strict sustainability requirements (government, NGO, corporate CSR).
