I recently bought a pair of Puma Eco trainers. The trainers are the classic Puma Suede but made with 100% recycled materials and designed with sustainability in mind. The shoe is called Puma Re-Suede if you're interested in buying a pair....

Do you buy environmentally friendly clothing?

Do you buy environmentally friendly clothing?

I do sometimes. But most of the time organic clothes are too expensive. :(

So instead I try and buy good quality clothes that last longer. And often this isn't much cheaper. ;)

I don't tend to buy specific eco friendly clothing, but I make good use of the stuff I have, to make it last longer. Not only that, but I fashion new things out of multiple older things.

I don't often tend to buy eco friendly clothes but always try and go for a vegan option where possible. I'm not sure if this counts as well? Converse are quite a good choice because it doesn't hurt any animals in the making. I guess the rubber soles are a bit of an issue when it comes to recycling though. I would be interested to see some more links to environmentally friendly clothing if anybody else has any great recommendations?

There are plenty of stores online. Look up eco-friendly clothing or organic clothing. I think the eco-fashion industry will grow in the coming years. I have been buying eco-friendly clothing for around 5 years now and there are more outlets than ever before.

Has anyone seen or purchased any fair-trade clothes?
