A little Pledging - Folke Byron Bay

Australian made, unfortunately its not as common as it should be in the fashion industry. Although we do have brands such as Cue, Gorman and Manning Cartel that are utilizing the local talent pool and ensuring that their brands are not costing the earth or humanity, but these brands don't cater to everyone's tastes and requirements. This is where the sweatshop fast fashion garments come in to play and bulk up the fashion industry, fill the gap in terms of cheap t-shirts and jeans.  

We would like to introduce the folk of Byron Bay, literally, the up and coming organic clothing brand Folke are bringing local, organic and all round ethical t-shirts to us ethical fashion enthusiasts. This brand holds tightly to the ethical production and manufacturing standards that many disregard. They believe in 'fashion karma' which goes without saying that these fashion conscious few know how to fashion, ethically!. The design ethos is simple, a natural casual style emulating the beautiful region and community of Byron Bay. These t-shirts are 100% organic cotton, 100% organic ink and 100% sweatshop free manufacturing.

As this brand is just starting up a pledge fund has been created to assist in raising the funds to manufacture the 'forever free' t-shirt at a sweatshop free factory located in Sydney. So if you want a feel good Folke tee or just some more info on this great new brand follow this link, pledge and as they say bring your fashion karma back to base.
