Large Marge Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Hey Kids, I need to have some T's made up for the Car Free Day campaign that I'm working on with the Sierra Club. Does anyone know of any local suppliers (Toronto area) of ethically sound T-shirts (i.e. no sweatshops, natural fibers). I'd love to go with hemp but unfortunately, we're running on a pretty tight budget. I'm also trying to find an inexpensive button manufacturer/supplier... any suggestions would help. Thanks!

Blane Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Check with Howler. She bought some a year or two ago, I remember. I be she still remembers where. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Im going home Donny Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 nah I got 8 year olds in Malaysia to make mine. I made certain first that they were locked behind cages so they wouldn't waste my precsious dollar with frivilous toilet breaks. Nothing like the smell of a childs blood on a nice T-shirt....mmm...sweat and bloood. Sorry bout my humor. I highly reccomend American Apparrell(spell apparrell?) They are a very progressive co. They don't use sweatshops-Check out their web site and they will give you the entire blurb about their human and enviremental concerns. They are based out of L.A. and have a set up out of Montreal. Ask about sizes....I got Large girly basic tees and really it's a big small or a small medium. So if you want Large womans tees ask them about x or xxlarge. The Mens are probably more normal in sizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
