Dear Comrades,

All of our shirts are produced in Ciudad Sandino, Nicaragua at the "Nueva Vida" women's sewing co-operative.

Our shirts are proudly made in a fully worker-owned environment where all decisions are made democratically and where all workers enjoy profit sharing privileges and control over company policy.

In addition to being ethically made, our products always conform to strict environmental standards and many of our clothes are made using only certified ring spun organic cotton.

As a part of our commitment to the principles of fair-trade & social justice, [Comrade Clothing] will donate $1 for every shirt purchased towards an organization or cause of your choice which supports the global struggle against poverty and inequality.

If you're interested in switching your company or organization's apparel to an ethically made alternative or carrying [Comrade Clothing] in your retail location, please contact us as soon as possible!

Solidarity, Peace & Blessings,
The [Comrade Clothing] Team

P.S. Here's what some people in the blogosphere are saying about us!:

"This whole enterprise strikes me as a fantastic idea, both for consumers in the States who wish to shop ethically and for the labor movements in Latin America, who have been mistreated through-out history and into the present day particularly through Reagan’s funding and training of the anti-communist Contras. This strikes me as a way to finally move past that horrific period in the 80s when people just disappeared like ghosts and nearly weekly there was another bomb blast in a market. And from my viewpoint, the benefits are twofold: you give your hard-earned cash to an equitably run and managed garment collective, and you avoid giving it to people-hungry garment factories that plunge workers into hellish working and living conditions all for the sake of saving a buck."
