Good to Know
Ekster's minimalist design ethos and durable construction are genuinely timeless, but we could not find much evidence of a formal repair program or detailed supply chain transparency beyond country-of-origin claims. Sustainability certifications (GOTS, B Corp) would strengthen the narrative. End-of-life guidance (care instructions, resale partnerships) remains an opportunity to close the loop on their premium, long-life pieces.
About our research
Every brand on Oras is independently researched across five pillars: material quality, construction and craftsmanship, longevity and repairability, sustainability and ethics, and design philosophy. We use a consistent framework so you can compare brands meaningfully.
Oras does not sell products directly. We connect you to the brand's own site. We may earn a small affiliate commission, but this never influences our research or which brands we feature.
