I find that it’s interesting that a majority of the clothes donated find their way to Africa. When clothes are donated, they are first sent to a sorting warehouse. At the warehouse employees sort the clothes by quality, where the better clothes are sent to the stores for resell and the rest are shipped to Africa.
When I buy clothes I purposely look for things that will last a long time. These items are normally made with better material and will cost more than fast fashion items. Since the clothes are more expensive I tend to buy less, which means it’s easier to find something to wear in the morning.
I also look for clothes at thrift stores like Goodwill. As stated above Goodwill normally separates the donated clothes and puts the higher quality product on the shelves.
How do you shop for clothes?
