Allmade Introduces Sustainably Manufactured Clothing

As Americans in a culture of rapid consumption, it’s easy to believe that cheaper and faster is better. Many of us have closets overflowing with clothing. From shoes and outerwear to shirts and pants, fast fashion makes buying clothes at affordable prices as simple as clicking a button online.

The wholesale cost of blank T-shirts produced in bulk can be as little as $2 a shirt. Retailers mark up prices making healthy profits on these garments while still being able to pass along savings to customers. But, low cost manufacturing comes with many hidden costs, our environment and the laborers that make these garments suffer.

Do you know the story behind your T-shirt?

• It takes over 500 gallons of water to produce a single conventional cotton T-shirt.
• The amount of chemicals and pesticides used for one shirt equates to over 1/3 the weight of the garment.
• Slave labor still exists in countries producing apparel outside the US.
• Over 80% of children in Haitian orphanages have parents but with such low wages, parents are unable to afford their care.
• You can eliminate all of these closed door problems by paying roughly $1 more per garment.
  

In a world that celebrates glamour, fame, and instant gratification, the only constant is change. Together, we have the power to make change that’s positive and long lasting.
