Organic and Environmental Friendly Clothing

I think that Organic and Environmental Friendly Clothing is a good thing. It helps cut down air pollution by not using as much pesticides, water, energy, and electricity.
I have a friend who has a pair of shoes that are made from recycled tires and cotton. They are very durable and cute. I think that making environmental friendly shoes is a very good idea because people go through shoes like crazy and they just get worn out and thrown away so why not make them out of organic or recyclable materials. Making shoes out of old tires seems like they would last a lot longer then normal shoes do anyways because they would not get near as much use as they would on a car then on your feet.
I have seen in stores lately sheets that are made out of hemp or organic cotton. I bought the organic cotton kind and, although I think that organic cotton is a good thing, I ended up not being very happy with them. The fitted sheet ended up pilling up after about three washes. It was so uncomfortable I could not even sleep on them. It was definitely not worth paying $45 dollars for.
On the other hand, my favorite t-shirts come from a company called American Apparel. They are made in America and are made from organic cotton. They are the most comfortable shirts I have ever worn and come in different styles and a large variety of colors.
Organic cotton and environmental friendly items should be sold at more stores and more people should be aware that this is happening. It has been being promoted a lot more in the past few years but I still feel like so many people are not doing their part to help out. I try to recycle as much as possible and the recycling locations on campus help a lot.
