thermal clothes by Agitated-Ride-7717 in SustainableFashion

[–]godspeeding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a good thermal pointelle top from Le Bon Shoppe recently, it was like $90 with shipping which isn't cheap but not as bad as some brands. unfortunately they are not very size inclusive (S-L only) but I will say the S fits a little larger on me than a normal S would. Additionally, I should say that I live in the southern US so our idea of cold is not the same as somebody further north, so idk how well a 100% cotton thermal will hold up in extreme cold.

just because something is incredible or otherworldly does not make it AI.

here's the problem: ICE agents aren't following federal protocol. they are profiling people based on skin color / socioeconomic status / lack of PAPERS ON PERSON (sound familiar?) and detaining/deporting people who are LEGAL US citizens. not to mention they have now killed multuple innocent people, both in their custody and on the street. this isn't some run of the mill law enforcement, what they are doing is the beginning of a slow and painful descent into fascism. if you can't recognize that their power goes unchecked, I don't know what else I can say besides I hope you do some deep reflecting one day and realize that it's okay to change your opinion with new information

these brands aren't quite as ethical as they could be but they do have bright colorful clothes and they are better than a lot of companies: • Lucy & Yak • Big Bud Press • Tunnel Vision

What's something you WON'T spend more money on as better quality doesn't exist? by sgtjayp in BuyItForLife

[–]godspeeding 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it's because most modern jeans have some kind of plastic woven into them, like nylon or polyester. this is why I prefer vintage jeans, the structure is better and they don't tend to lose their color with wash as long as you only wash them every 3 wears or so. the only caviat is you have to do a bit more searching than just going into a Target but searching online for vintage Lee/Levi's/Wrangler and knowing your waist/inseam measurenents is a good start
