Before You Buy, Find Out Why We Finally Decided To Call it Toxic

12/5/2016

7 Comments

 
Especially this holiday season, before you buy clothing for your loved ones (or yourself), do a quick search on "toxic clothing health concerns" to find out how most of what you buy/choose to wear is affecting health--yours, theirs, the world's--in ways you wouldn't guess or desire.

​We hope you'll be glad to know why we encourage people to do more with less, enjoy the best and avoid investing in mainstream apparel full of formaldehyde (not restricted in US manufacturing), PFCs (Perflourinated Chemicals), VOCS (volatile organic compounds) and phthalates, among 8000 other chemicals used to make what you wear. Be aware that many are endocrine/hormone distrupting and do not wash out. 

Here's an article from Shape Magazine about "What's Lurking In Your Yoga Pants?"  
Does your place of choice for workout make money on branded apparel that's toxic to our health?  While shopping recently at a very popular athletic apparel store, a customer was told that she should buy two different pairs of $98 leggings for aerobics and yoga. Wow, our customers get all kinds of use out of fabulous $26 organic cotton leggings, from workout to dinner out.  
​
Maybe the health concerns with over 70,000 new American Airlines flight attendant uniforms will raise awareness of what is compromising health for us all. (Fly much?)
