Why RDS-Certified Down Jackets Matter: Orolay’s Commitment to Ethical Fashion

 In today’s fashion world, sustainability and ethical practices are no longer optional—they’re essential. At Orolay, we take this responsibility seriously. That’s why all of our down jackets are certified by the Responsible Down Standard (RDS), ensuring that every piece you wear is as compassionate as it is stylish.

What Is the Responsible Down Standard (RDS)?

The Responsible Down Standard is a global certification that ensures down and feathers come from ducks and geese that have been treated humanely. This means:

  • No live-plucking or force-feeding

  • Respect for animal welfare throughout their lives

  • Full traceability from farm to finished product

RDS certification ensures that the warmth in your jacket doesn’t come at the cost of animal cruelty.

Orolay’s Commitment Since 2021

Since 2021, every Orolay down jacket has used down that meets the RDS guidelines. And in 2022, we proudly became a certified brand under the Responsible Down Standard. This certification reflects our long-term commitment to transparency, accountability, and respect—for both animals and our customers.

Fashion with Purpose

Orolay believes that you shouldn’t have to choose between style and ethics. Our down jackets are thoughtfully designed to keep you warm, confident, and conscious. Whether you’re commuting in the city, heading out for a winter weekend getaway, or simply walking your dog in the park, you can feel good about what you’re wearing—inside and out.

Ethical Fashion Is the Future

By supporting brands that prioritize animal welfare and sustainable practices, you’re contributing to a more ethical fashion industry. At Orolay, we’re proud to be part of that change.
