The fabric verdict
Bershka isn't great, but it's not the worst either. You can find natural fibre products here if you know where to look. Stick to the categories we flagged as safe zones, and check individual items with Fibr before buying.
One honest caveat: this report measures fabric composition only. Natural fibres biodegrade and shed fewer microplastics than synthetics, which makes fibre content a meaningful — and rare — measurable sustainability signal. But it says nothing about Bershka's labor practices, emissions, water use, or production volumes. Treat it as one input, not a verdict.
Direction of travel: Bershka's average natural fibre content has moved from 54.5% in May 2026 to 53.7% today, based on our point-in-time catalog snapshots.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Bershka sustainable?
On fabric composition — the one factor we can measure — Bershka averages 53.7% natural fibre across 12,247 products, ranking #34 of 55 brands we track. That's roughly mid-pack. Fabric data can't speak to labor practices, emissions, or water use, so treat this as one input, not a verdict.
Is Bershka fast fashion?
We measure fabric, not business models — so we can't classify Bershka as fast fashion or not. What the data shows: 24.2% of their products are polyester-heavy and 36% are nearly all-natural (95%+ natural fibre). Heavy synthetic reliance often correlates with fast-fashion production, but it isn't proof either way.
Is Bershka good quality?
Fabric composition is a reasonable quality proxy: natural fibres generally breathe better, last longer, and shed fewer microplastics. Bershka averages 53.7% natural fibre, which is about average. Individual items vary widely, so check the composition label on each piece.
Is Bershka worth it? Should I buy from them?
That depends on what you're buying. 36% of Bershka's catalog is nearly all-natural, so good pieces exist even beyond their solid average. Use the Fibr extension to check fabric composition on individual items while you shop — it varies more within a brand than between brands.
Is Bershka mostly synthetic or natural?
46.4% of Bershka products are majority synthetic (less than 50% natural fibre by weighted content). The catalog as a whole averages 53.7% natural fibre, so it leans mixed.
