What clothing store aren’t eco-friendly?
I was just wondering if there are clothing stores that do not use natural fibers, don’t recycle, and stuff like that. I would like to know if they are enviornmentally friendly. I’m looking for chain stores such as Aeropostale, American Eagle, and Hollister. Thanks so much!
The Expert answers:
Savana,
I have to be honest when I say to you that being eco-friendly really means being sustainable. The fact of whether the cloths you are buying are sustainable to our world can be measured like this:
1) How long are you going to use the cloths?
You could be shopping for organically made clothing and if you bought one every month then you’d still be worse off than by shopping at Walmart.
2) Can you consider getting them used?
3) Where are your dollars going to. Are you voting with your money in a good way? If you buy at a large company or corporation like Walmart you be giving your dollars away where they will not recirculate and go back into your city. If you can afford to shop at a local place, then do that. If you can’t, don’t sweat it.
4) How are you washing them? If you buy the most eco-friendly pair of jeans but then wash them with toxic cleaners, are you really being sustainable?
5) How will you dispose of them when they are done? Can you live with repairing holes depending on where they are? Can you make something useful that looks decent out of them? Or will you give them away?
All of these things tend to add up more than how the actual product was made. Its really important to look the future consequences of what we do. Given all of that, here are some of the more eco-friendly options if you can’t find a local store.

Your question does say “aren’t”. The truth is we may never know which ones aren’t. So therefore we usually go with ones that we know are good. Gap is a good one, Abercrombie, Aeropostale, Hollister and American Eagle are all ok, but over priced LOL. There are lots of cool online shops that will really give you the sustainable cloths that you want. The link is up there.
If you think my answer is worthy then give me best answer!
Good luck
Nancy asks…
Where can I buy eco friendly clothes… Hemp… Organic… etc…?
Do you know of a place I can buy clothes all the while being conscious of my impact on this earth? I am looking for eco–friendly clothes. I want to be able to try these clothes on, so I would not want just an online store. Please Give the names of these stores, and if they have them, their link to their store. Thanks a bunch!

At jcpenny, they have a collection of WWF (world wildlife foundation) clothes. Whenever you buy a shirt from that brand, it donates money to saving the animals in the wild and animal rescue places. They also used to have organic shirts and bags there from the brand Grow Free. Check out that store, its probably your best bet and they have jcpennys all over the place.
