Sustainable Clothing Resources for Men



I once had a friend ask me if I knew of any men's organic clothing resources, but at that time I knew of only a handful of companies that offered them. I am happy to say that times have changed, and there are many more resources out there. Living an Eco conscious life is now more than just a fad - it is a realization and priority for many of us, men and women alike. More and more designers are incorporating their values into their designs and creating trendy, sustainable clothing. More and more companies are carrying Eco-friendly goods. This is all great news for those of us who put our values behind our spending. Below are some sustainable manufacturers that make organic men's clothing, many of which you can order from directly.

Please keep in mind that just because a manufacturer is in another country, doesn't mean that it is not available in the US. You can search their site's retailer locator to find if they have a retailer near you. If you know of any other resources, please let me know and I will look into adding it to the list!
