I don’t know if this topic is appropriate for this community but there is a lot of waste generated with the clothing industry so I hope it fits.
The only resource I know of to find ethically sourced clothes is https://goodonyou.eco/. However, those can be pretty expensive so lately, I’ve been looking for more alternatives that are more affordable. What do you guys think of Salvation Army, Goodwill, Thrift stores? I’ve been hesitant on going there because I fear not having a good selection of clothes. If you guys have any experiences with these that would be amazing
Thrift stores are probably the most ethical because it’s all donated and second hand. It’s already been created, bought, and worn before you see it.
The selection isn’t bad at all. Just go look.
What about the ethics of getting things for free, then selling those things for profit, even price gouging the items like good will? Shouldn’t the clothing be free in an ethical world? Just spitballing ideas for a brighter tomorrow.
Price gouging? All the clothes at my goodwill are cheap. They even had a sale recently where any piece of clothing was $2 flat.
What kind of price gouging have you seen?
