A truly stylish, easy to wear, feel good collection for the summer! The entire Elroy collection retails for under $120 CAD and is made from organic, sustainable fabrics: soft-as silk tencel chambray denim, organic cotton and wild, raw silk – vegan friendly as the silkworms are unharmed in the production of the fabric.

Enuwbe offers multifunctional clothes for all your adventures. Custom made just for you. I strive to do everything I can to make all my clothes in a environmentally friendly way. In fact I even keep all my fabric scraps to make eco pet bedding and eco throw pillows. Our goal is to promote a sustainable way of life through organic cottons, and sustainable resources.

Artevist: Activism through Art

by grechen on February 5, 2009 | SUBSCRIBE | TWITTER | FACEBOOK |

Do you wear your heart on your sleeve? What about your t-shirt? Then take a look at Artevist, a new company/website for people who love to wear t-shirts, love to design t-shirts, and love to talk about t-shirts. Mostly though, it’s a place for people who believe in t-shirts as a way to communicate messages and inspire activism.

Also at Artevist, you can not only buy t-shirts (all ethically made from organic cotton and/or bamboo), but you can submit a design to be printed on a t-shirt:

The concept is simple. Artists compete in open, peer-review T-shirt design contests. All Artevist members can vote for their favourites and leave comments. The most popular submissions are reproduced on organic Tees (bamboo, hemp or cotton), which are ecologically and ethically produced and sourced.

How cool is that? Head over there now to vote on your favorite designs, but also take a look at what’s available now. I have a couple of their tees, one organic cotton and one and organic cotton/bamboo blend (sooo soft) and love the designs:

It’s a great idea, really, forming a community around environmental activism and t-shirts. And now is the time for great ideas…

I have several Toggery pieces – their organic cotton is super-soft, high-quality and what I reach for when I’m lounging around at home. They’re having a 50% off sale now, and this organic cotton thermal shirt is marked down to $21:
