In case you are a t-shirt designer, run a t-shirt store or label, or indeed create or sell any kind of clothing, you might be interested in the Fairwear Foundation who focus on ensuring that the garment industry finally cleans up its act and directly influences the rights of workers for all their suppliers and manufacturers. If you regularly order t-shirts from international suppliers and manufacturers it maybe worth reading on and seeing what pressure you can apply!
Since the late 90′s The Netherlands have been campaigning for ‘clean clothes’, i.e clothing created ethically and with fair workers’ rights no matter the source. FWF regularly inspect source suppliers across the world, including human rights’ hotspots such as India, Indonesia and Romania.

So whilst I wait a while for my graphics suite to groan into action I think this would be an opportune moment to introduce you to LinkedIn.com – the Facebook for professionals, and in this case t-shirt professionals.
I am not really one for social networking as it happens, I have joined many, I submit my posts to quite a few social bookmarking sites and even drum up a little support for Threadless votes on a few of them, but when it comes to the t-shirt industry it’s all boiled down to pot luck so far. The thing is many networks paint a rather broad stroke when it comes to niche markets and industries, I’ve even found myself starting t-shirt related groups (with few takers) because most systems inherently avoid specific niches and favour communities such as ‘fashion’ or even ‘celebrity fashion’ over designer t-shirts. read more
