Glo 4 Life Organic T-Shirts

TH_glo4life_040805.jpg Did you know that the average 100% cotton T-shirt is made up of only 73% cotton - the rest is made up of chemicals and their residue that were used to grow and make it?! Neither did the designers who started Glo 4life. But as they found out more and more about the ecological burden that cotton puts on the world, they decided to make a change. That's why every Glo 4Life Tee is made in India of 100% organic cotton. But since just being green isn't enough for us, they also feature two edgy themes. Urban Vermin is for all the animal lovers, and Street Pollution takes a more graphic angle on signs and road paint. Definitely worth a look.

Great concept, but at $50+ a pop, you're probably better off buying whatever is on sale at Old Navy, and dividing the remaining $40+ between your favorite environmental and worker's rights charities.

Cotton is the heaviest user of pesticides among american crops (so I've heard..makes sense since it's not like you eat it) Anything I buy nowadays is going to be either organic hemp or cotton, or I'll pick it up from the second-hand store. Ashby, keep in mind that buying from Old Navy and supporting worker's rights is very ironic.

thanks fir the comments - as a UK company we don't really know the exact cost of organic T-shirts like this in the US - but the £25 ($50) price is on par with ordinary cotton T-shirts over here in the UK, even though we have to pay a premium price for the organic cotton! so we think we're being pretty fair on price, obviously with the exchange rate of the £ v $ it may not seem so?
give us some constructive criticism, and tell us how much you guys in the US would be preapred to pay for this, and what else is out there and and what price?
thanks
