Where do you buy ethical clothes?

[Guest]

I was thinking of underwear and socks. It's hard to find socks, and I don't want to use others underwear.

What the hell kind of clothes can I get from a thrift shop that aren't? 🤨

Ethical fabrics do not exist unless you are crazy wealthy or making them yourself

Lots of stuff made in sweatshops?

In Europe (portugal). I really rate them.

ITSO

I really enjoy my Darn Tough Socks, they have a lifetime warranty on every pair. No matter how long you've had them, they will replace them and recycle the old material for free. I don't have any reason to dislike them yet.

They are made in Vermont in the USA and seem to have a sustainability first approach.

Minimising is what should be done in situations like this. Perfect is the enemy of good.

Also, renewable (if you dont replace too mich at once!)

Harris tweed. Not cheap, but you don't have to be crazy wealthy.

I have a Harris tweed Teapot Cozy. It is one of my favorite things in my kitchen. I should have thought of that.
