Sustainability

JESPER pieces are handmade in small batches using thoughtfully selected materials chosen for their quality, durability, and performance. From the fabric we cut to the packaging your order arrives in, every part of the process is considered with longevity and waste in mind.

Fabric

Our swimwear is made from a 82% recycled nylon / 18% spandex fabric.  The fabric is designed to hold its shape while moving with the body — whether you're swimming, surfing, sunbathing, or simply living in it. 

Each fabric is personally wear-tested in real conditions — including saltwater, chlorine, and prolonged sun exposure in Costa Rica — before becoming part of a JESPER collection.

We look for fabrics that feel beautiful on the body and hold up to the way swimwear is actually lived in.

Made with intention. Made to last.

Quality is part of sustainability. Fast fashion asks us to constantly replace what we own. We want JESPER to move in the opposite direction.

Every piece is handmade with attention to construction, fit, and finish. We choose substantial swim fabric rather than lightweight materials that sacrifice longevity, and we produce in small batches rather than creating excess inventory.

The goal isn't to make more.  It's to make pieces you'll reach for again and again.

Packaging

Your JESPER order arrives in water-resistant, plastic-free packaging made with 100% recycled fiber content, including 70% post-consumer waste diverted from landfills.

Our mailers are curbside recyclable and made in the USA, using recycled materials and local inputs.
