I don’t know if this topic is appropriate for this community but there is a lot of waste generated with the clothing industry so I hope it fits.
The only resource I know of to find ethically sourced clothes is https://goodonyou.eco/. However, those can be pretty expensive so lately, I’ve been looking for more alternatives that are more affordable. What do you guys think of Salvation Army, Goodwill, Thrift stores? I’ve been hesitant on going there because I fear not having a good selection of clothes. If you guys have any experiences with these that would be amazing
I’ve had good experiences at thrift stores, especially local ones. While they’re definitely filled with basic stuff like t-shirts, I’ve found plenty of cool stuff too. They’re not one-stop shops for sure though, you’d wanna do a few stops at a couple to get a really diverse wardrobe. I’m also the kind of person to wander and look at other stuff in thrift stores too, I’ve found some cool historical stuff about my area in them.
As far as the organizations behind them go, I’d generally try to avoid chains like Goodwill or Salvation Army because they’ve done (and probably are still doing) some sucky stuff, if I remember right Salvation Army donates/d to anti-LGBT groups and Goodwill exploits disabled people, but I have no sources on hand so take it as you will.
