A lot.

About 80 percent of apparel workers producing clothing for U.S. retailers are working under conditions that systematically violate local and international labor law. And about 80% of all garments sold in the US are made in international factories (most of which are sweatshops).

Some companies that are fair trade (workers get paid fairly) are: MetoWe (online) or the Body Shop. Buying from thrift stores is another way to avoid supporting sweatshops.

It is hard to avoid being pulled into our society's idea or spending and materialism, but thank you for trying.

Do some research.
