Sanctuary Clothing, launched in Los Angeles in 1997 by Ken and Deb Polanco, evolved from a specialty pant maker into a global women’s lifestyle brand that marries California’s relaxed aesthetic with New York’s effortless sophistication. With a mission to be “a global lifestyle brand with a conscience,” they champion sustainability by using eco-friendly and recycled fabrics, reducing water and chemical use, and partnering with programs like Better Cotton Initiative, GOTS, Oeko‑Tex, and their “Smart Creation” line to minimize environmental impact.
