Love Your Leftovers

Love Your Leftovers

One of our goals for 2021 is to Continue to Grow Sustainability Efforts. So far we’ve introduced buttons, labels, drawcords, twill tape and packaging made from recycled plastic. We have also introduced a line of garments created from remnant fabric diverting waste from landfills – our ladies rib tee, rib tank and rib cardigan are all created from scrap fabric. We added zippers to the assortment of components using recycled plastics. We will also continue to expand our assortment of garments made of eco-triblend fabric diverting more plastic from landfills. Plus, we are reusing boxes that originate in Haiti.


This week, we are reflecting on leftovers but we’re not talking about turkey. Nope, we’re talking about overly loved tees from yesterday. According to Eco-Stylist, three out of every five fast fashion pieces end up in the trash. Your clothes that you have loved and cherished to the point of no return deserves better and so does the planet. Turn your leftovers into delicious fashion that you can cherish all over again.
