As consumers become increasingly aware of the pressing dangers of climate change many are seeking to avoid fast-fashion for its prominent role in contributing to the death of the planet. One brand setting itself apart in terms of "slow," sustainable fashion is Patagonia with its new Women's Long-Sleeved Pastel P-6 Logo Responsibili-Tee.
The Women's Long-Sleeved Pastel P-6 Logo Responsibili-Tee is 100% recycled and is "made with 4.8 plastic bottles and 0.3 pounds of cotton scrap, using 96% less water and creating 45% less CO2 than a conventional cotton T-shirt." This casual shirt is available in a variety of colorways including Crater Blue, Piton Purple, Gravel Heather, and Dolomite Blue. Consumers can purchase items online and ship to their home or opt for curbside pick-up.
