🧐 Are you still checking the tags on your clothes?
The other day, I was having a conversation with a friend who had just purchased an expensive sweater from a well-known brand (one I’m sure you’ve bought from, too). The texture was amazing, and she assumed the quality was top-notch. But out of curiosity, when she got home, she checked the tag to see if she could iron it, and she was shocked by the material composition. It looked and felt like good quality, but what was behind it? Not so much.
This really got me thinking: how often are we fooled by the look and feel of something, without considering what it’s truly made of? Just like we care about the ingredients in our food, we need to be just as mindful about the fabrics we wear.
So, this is just a gentle reminder of someone working with materials and sustainability for over 20 years, whether you’re a business owner or a shopper: Check the tag! Sometimes what looks great on the outside isn’t telling the full story.
