No Nasties is a Mumbai-based social enterprise making tees that are both [organic and fairly traded](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/regeneration-nation). The tees are entirely sustainable, from seeds free from genetic modification and pesticides or fertilizers, to the use of water-based dyes in manufacturing, and are backed by the social brand's 100% happiness guarantee.

No Nasties aims to meet consumers halfway by providing designs that speak to their lifestyle and sensibilities while also offering a viable alternative to the unsustainable economy in India that amounts to a high pollution from the use of pesticides and other chemicals, child labor and a devastating suicide rate amongst farmers.

The brand has also gathered a small community of talented designers that cultivate a supply of original, exclusive prints.
