For the Kids - Our Favorite R: REUSE


By nature, kids move through clothing, toys, and gear at a rapid rate. So keep their consumption rate as low as possible by reusing what others have grown out of. Check out your nearest consignment shops for the best deals on gently used kids clothing, toys, and baby gear. You'll be getting a great deal as well as reusing what has already been made - saving the energy and resources spent processing new products!

If you're in the Seattle area, check out The Kid's Sale at Issaquah's Pickering Barn and a second location during this weekend's Salmon Days Festival. Hundreds of parents have sent in their items to be reused by those with younger kids, and the selection of toys, baby gear, furniture, and clothing from newborn to age 12 is staggering, while the prices are equally jawdropping...in a good way :). So get out to Issaquah to grab a deal and keep those items in the R-R-R Loop!

Sustainable KIDS Arrives at Fashion Ethic



Fashion Ethic is proud to announce the new addition of KIDS wear for boys and girls aged 5 and up. The first pieces to arrive are from Sustainable Kids, a joint label from Prophetik and Convoy Apparel (makers of customer-fave Sustainable Collective).

Not only are they cute as the dickens, but each piece is eco-friendly (using organic cotton or recycled fibers and low-impact dyes and/or manufacturing) AND raises money and awareness for the Hands and Feet Project, building an orphanage in Haiti. Each item from Sustainable Kids comes with a postage-paid, pre-addressed box (as shown) so that the child receiving the clothes may experience the joy of sending a small toy, toiletry, or book to another child in need. Plus, part of the proceeds from the sale of Sustainable Kids apparel is donated to the orphanage fund, so you can feel as good as your kids will!

The first arrivals, the reversible Johanne dress and the Variola jacket are available NOW and more items, including boys', are expected to arrive before school starts! To be alerted of new arrivals, please email us at customerservice@fashionethic.com
