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

    I don’t know if the clothing should be ‘free’ from these places because they do still process the donations, and I don’t even mind them putting higher prices on items they’ve identified as being worth more… What they shouldn’t be doing is underpaying their employees while corporate leadership is making millions.

      My big problem with them is how they were underpaying the disabled. I don’t know if they have changed, but that was really super not cool.
