30-Year Sweater
A clothing company is working to get a little more green, in an eco-friendly kind of way. Tom Cridland is designer from the UK and recently launched a campaign called the 30-Year-Sweater. The concept? To fight against fast fashion, a production process that damages the environment, costs customers more, and undermines designers and brands who make truly durable clothing. The product? A loopback sweatshirt that is so well made they guarantee it to last for 30 years.
