Gloablization of Clothing, Where are you Wearing?
Globalization of clothing....WHERE are you wearing?
I decided to catalog my family of three's clothing for a week. Ok, we often wear more but we were on vacation, down to one suitcase so the numbers are a little low. No worries- we did laundry!
Here is the map of our clothing's "made in" tags;
Red = 1-2 tags
Orange = 3-4 tags
Yellow = 5-6 tags
Green = 7-8 tags
Blue= 9-10 tags
Purple = 11 or more tags
and a count of the places....
14 China
3 India
2 Thailand
1 Jordan
2 Cambodia
6 Bangladesh
1 Indonesia
4 Mexico
2 Egypt
2 Pakistan
1 Guatemala.
Worthy of note, afterwards I went through ALL of my infant son's clothing and EVERY piece, all different brands, is made in China. Bummer.
