Organic Cotton T-Shirts

I will soon be bringing you some artfully printed and embellished T-Shirts. The one aspect of the shirts that is just as important to me as style is that they will be 100% organic cotton.

I have decided to purchase shirts from American Apparel for a couple of reasons; they offer an extremely high quality of organic cotton T-Shirts and they are made in the USA. American Apparel purchases certified organic cotton and manufactures under strict conditions which results in a pesticide, herbicide, and chemical free product.

You may be asking yourself why is organic cotton so important. Conventionally grown cotton is one of agriculture's most environmentally destructive activities and because cotton is one of the most widely grown crops in the world all those chemicals really add up.
