WHAT IS RESPONSIBILITY? HOW IS RESPONSIBILITY REFLECTED IN THE CLOTHING INDUSTRY?
Responsibility is a topical important word. Although responsible fashion is still at the stage of development, consumers and clothing manufacturers have become increasingly interested in ethically and ecologically manufactured fashion.
What, then, is the irresponsible clothing industry? Read
here.
RESPONSIBILITY IS EXAMINED FROM THE PERSPECTIVES OF PRODUCT DESIGN, MANUFACTURING AND REUSE. THE AREAS OF RESPONSIBILITY CONSIST OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY, SOCIAL AND ETHICAL RESPONSIBILITY.
The design of the product takes into account many things that contribute to the durability of the product: material choices, reliable washing and care instructions, reducing textile waste, recyclability of the product and repair possibilities. The reuse of denim waste continues the life cycle of the product and opens doors to interesting innovations. Thanks to careful handicraft design, recycled denim is made into a new durable garment as required by the wardrobe.
For example, with the placement of strech and rigid denim in different products, we improve the quality of the products so that they take time. The manufacturer's transparency is also associated with responsible product manufacturing. This means that the company brings out on its own initiative to its customers who manufactured the products in their hands, where and in what way of production.

DURABLE AND RESPONSIBLE CLOTHING
"Sustainability" - The ability to endure
Sustainability has entered the business to stay. It is not a question of competitive advantage, but of requiring the company to act responsibly. Cheap fashion must be slowly let go. The environmental impact of products manufactured in low-cost countries will be more visible in prices in the future.
"This is the cheap clothes we have at the moment, we cannot have in the future. Climate impacts must also be reflected in prices." (Niinimäki, 2009)
The world does not change on its own, it requires small and responsible choices from individual people. Ecological choices with clothing displays help the world, but also serve the consumer. Thoughtful clothing purchases save money that time without compromising on style. The manufacture of jeans from the very beginning is very environmentally friendly. The world is full of usable material, so let's make use of it.

The world is slowly being covered in rubbish and polluting, clean drinking water is declining, forests are being cut down and climate change is accelerating. Jeans are manufactured a lot and have a high carbon footprint. Extending the lifespan of clothing by only nine months would reduce the carbon and water footprint and the amount of waste by about 20-30%.
