Amble’s core material is recycled polyester made from post consumer plastic bottles. Over 1 million bottles have been recycled into fabrics since launch. It also uses GOTs certified organic cotton in selected products and develops many of its fabrics from scratch to prioritise lower impact fibres. For waterproofing, Amble states it avoids long chain PFAS, often referred to as “forever chemicals,” in its durable water repellent finishes.

The brand offsets the carbon footprint of its jackets through a partnership with Greenstory, reporting over 39,751 kg of carbon offset to date, primarily through renewable energy projects.

Amble also recycled 18 kg of faulty or unwearable fabric through Upparel to divert waste from landfill. A formal garment take back program has not yet been implemented, though the brand states this is a future goal. Another future goals is to reduce air freight by 25%, and instead rely more on sea freight.
