How to Fix Your Clothes

We've said it once and we'll say it again: clothes don't belong in landfills. Wear it out, or pass it on. We're big fans of using what you've got and mending your clothes when they're a little worse for the wear.

A good rule of thumb is to buy durable, well crafted clothes that won't fall apart after a few wears and washings. Next, follow the wash instructions – most things last longer when washed in cold water and air dried. When you come across something that needs mending or altering, roll up your sleeves and get to work. Here's how to fix your clothes, so no excuses!
