Where are you located?

Our team, office and our atelier are located in the center of Europe, more specifically in the city of Kyiv, Ukraine.

What are your brand values?

Sleeper’s mission is to cultivate love and self-care in everyday life. We believe that every day, through what we do, we increase the number of people who take care of themselves responsibly. For them, and in this spirit, we create cross-functional apparel that makes it possible to focus on the important things in life. Discover Sleeper’s manifesto through this link.

Where do you produce your garments?

Our production atelier is located in Kyiv, Ukraine. This is where we carefully handcraft each and every Sleeper garment with the help of our highly professional production team, which consists of women and men of different ages, some of which hold over 30 years of work experience.

Are you sustainable?

As a brand that deeply cares about sustainability, we are strongly committed to becoming an entirely sustainable brand by 2030. To learn more about our sustainability initiatives, visit the-sleeper.com/responsibility. Here are a few such initiatives below:

Our products are handmade

Every garment is hand-made, and a minimum of equipment is used in its production, which allows us to reduce our carbon emissions.

We are zero-waste

We call our production ‘zero waste’ as we only make as many items as we can sell, and we give the left-over fabrics to our tailor Anya, who teaches local children the craft of cutting and sewing. Once a year, we also organize a public sample sale, where we sell our collection samples and any items that have minor defects.

Decent working conditions

It's extremely important for us to provide decent working conditions - safe jobs, employment records, competitive wages, paid vacations. We follow the principles of equality and inclusivity in our recruitment process.

Timelessness

We support slow fashion and strive to create pieces that will last for years.

Natural materials

We use natural materials in our collections such as linen, silk, and viscose. We are aiming for 100% of our materials to be biodegradable by 2030.

Responsible suppliers

We are guided by our Partnership and Suppliers' Sustainability Policy when working with partners and suppliers. This policy regulates the basic principles of company conduct in terms of respecting human rights and laws, caring for the health of employees and protecting the environment, sustainable production and consumption, as well as ethical principles of business conduct. Further details can be found on our website.

Eco-packaging

Each Sleeper piece is packaged in a reusable linen bag that can be used in everyday life afterwards.

How long does the shipping take?

Proud of being a slow-fashion brand, we are always working on streamlining our operations and optimizing the manufacturing process. To ensure transparency, we currently have three types of dispatch variations that depend on item availability.

Stock item

This item has already been crafted and can be shipped to you within 1-2 business days. Depending on your location, delivery can take up between 3-5 business days.

Shipped Within 1-2 weeks

This item is currently being made at our atelier to become a stock item in the future. Its processing takes slightly longer as we have different stocks available in different locations.

Shipped Within 3-4 weeks

To craft our garments for you, our seamstresses need some time. For items in demand, the process of manufacturing is extended because the atelier may be awaiting fabrics.

To make your shopping experience better, and to avoid long waiting times, we ship your order from two main locations - the United States and Ukraine. If you have questions regarding the country from which your order will be shipped, contact our Customer Care team at care@the-sleeper.com.

Orders to the United States

We offer two options for delivery across the United States - UPS Ground (2-5 days) and UPS 2nd Day Air. You may select your preferred shipping option at check-out.

International orders

We collaborate with fulfillment centers on the West coast of the United States that ship our products globally via DHL Express, DHL Standard, and UPS Worldwide. International orders that are shipped from the USA via DHL Express usually arrive within 3-6 days after the dispatch. DHL Standard/UPS Worldwide parcels take up to 5-21 business days for the parcel to be delivered. Please note that some orders may be shipped from our atelier in Ukraine via FedEx Express.

Orders to Russia and Belarus

Please note that we have suspended delivery to Russia and Belarus.

We will surely send the shipments' confirmation emails once the packages are dispatched and on the way to you.

Can I reject the delivery
