I love their recycling program where you can send back your old undies, Knickey or other brand. Knickey is a women-owned brand offering Fair Trade GOTS certified organic cotton undies in sizes XXS to XL (they offer up to a 3X in their mid-brief style and are planning to extend sizes across collections in a few months). Project #1 (underwear): they work directly with a small fair trade factory in southern India, and use organic cotton sourced from local farmers’ cooperatives (they share the processes behind every step of production, from seed to final product) I absolutely love their commitment to researching the fibre process and working with cooperatives (supporting the local communities), and I highly recommend reading into their projects:
