I love what you're doing. What about some maternity gear please? for all us ladies with a bump!!! It's so hard to find maternity wear that is ethical, let alone comfy and trendy. I think it would really set you aside from other maternity suppliers and draw in customers for your baby and other ranges too....if you can get some made before I 'pop' I'll be your first customer!
Keep up the excellent work.
Sylvie!
Great products. Sound ethics. Nobody's (no pun intended) perfect. I note the comment from the 12-year-old above and would like to say that I think you have a good market in the 50++ age groups too. Many of us have desposable income and would like to spend it on eco/walk/gym/bushwalking/gardening-friendly stuff for ourselves. (I'm passing this site on to friends who span most age groups.) Why not advertise in CRIKEY et al.
Great products, excellent ideas,photos need to be larger as someone pointed out,good incentives to encourage everyone to be involved.It's good to see an idea that was howled down in the beginning, do so well. Congratulations and keep going.
Hey guys, I'd just like to back Elle up and say as the mother of a growing soon to be six year old, it would be great if you guys had more clothes for older kids. And sleepwear would be great too!
Thanks.
nevermind the models being stick thin; what's with the skankyness! not everyone lives by the mantra 'if you've got it, flaunt it'. most of the outfits (at least in the fits the models wear) i would only want my husband to see me in!
it'd be much appreciated if you could at least let your suppliers know that there is a demand for some less fitted/outrageous, more modest designs. like Merry and Cathy I really want to buy ethical clothing, but i have other values as well that i'd rather not compromise in the process.
i'm sick of clothes always being either skin-tight, see-through, short or low-cut, and you guys aren't exactly providing any alternatives to that.
also, i'm happy to see recently some more 'flat-chested' models (being an a-cup myself) but i'm yet to see anyone with a decent sized ass and legs. like cathy, i'm a 10-12, and i'm only going to buy stuff that i'm confident will be flattering and modest on my non-model, bottom-heavy body. if a 10-12 is a LARGE, i think there's a problem.
thanks for the space to rant.
Hi Cathy!
Thanks for taking the time to post on our website!
Most of the photos we use are straight from our manufacturer, and believe it or not we try to choose the most modest and casual looking photos we can find! We just don't have the facilities to photograph our entire line at this time. Most of the clothing is fitted so it will be a bit tighter than you may be used to, but we dont want anyone to be losing circulation! If you buy something and it doesn't fit right, we can do an exchange, however in that case the shipping is usually covered by the consumer. If there is a fault in the garment, we will cover both the shipping to and from us for the replacement piece. Our goods are sourced from the USA, so we simply can't afford to cover the shipping of returns when the garments are delivered as ordered.
A size 10 - 12 would be a standard size Large in our goods. It is very hard to order goods online without trying them on, but we try to provide as much information as we can. Here's a link to our sizing information:
www.fullystoked.com/onlineshop/index.cfm?page=size
Towards the bottom you'll be able to click on what youd like sizing info for (e.g. under Women's you can click shirts, pants, etc). If you have any other direct concerns, please feel free to email us direct.
Anyways, let me know if the information above helped, and I'll be happy to answer any other questions you might have!
Kind regards,

...the world you want.
I want ot buy ethical clothing but I am totally put off buying anything here because the models are so stick thin it makes the clothes look wierd. The swimming costumes look like they are cutting the models legs in half.I'm only a size 10-12 but it doesn't mean I want to wear tight fitting clothes. Your refund policy doesn't state that you can return clothes that don't fit. It only mentions damaged goods. Can you clarify that? How can you buy before you try? And who wants to pay for the return postage.
I bought two of the Jane Goodall T's and think they are great, but this time back to look for more, I was horrified by the models. I'm not buying any more of your clothes until you show a more diverse-sized range of people modelling them. Some of those girls look half-starved and all are thin. What point worrying about people starving in third world countries if we make our own young people starve to get the modelling jobs? What about eating disorders in our young people who see these sorts of pics and think they need to look the same? Humph!
