where are clothing matters products made?
We invest with manufacturers who provide the highest quality of sustainably manufactured apparel. Since 1996 we have featured over 100 local, regional, and international designers, including co-operatives and third party certified facilities that exceed Fair Labour Association standards in Nepal, China, Romania, Tibet, Peru, India and Ecuador. All of our products are responsibly manufactured and each of our manufacturers is committed to providing their employees with living wages and clean, safe work environments. Those manufacturing in China are setting standards for eco-friendly and socially equitable practices and policies in a place where highly polluting, unsustainable development is happening is excessive. We feel our support of sustainable manufacturers overseas is as important as our investment in domestic production, toward establishing a level playing field in a global market place.  Learn more here.

how do i care for clothing matters products?
Our products are low maintenance, and can help simplify your lifestyle. Nearly all of our clothing is machine washable. Our natural fiber fabric blends are breathable, allowing more wear with less washing. Fluff your clothes in the dryer a bit to help wrinkles fall out, or shake them out, hang them up, and see how quickly you put it back on your body! "Erase" wrinkles with a damp washcloth on the way out the door! Check the garment tag for specific instructions, but we generally recommend machine wash cold with a low heat dry to conserve energy and prolong the life of your clothing.
