Sweating another organic t-shirt

Lots of green thinkers like that American Apparel uses organic cotton and pays stateside workers fairly, but many call company founder Dov Charney a sexist, union-busting yuppie in hipster threads. Charney haters should check out this  Sustainable Industries Journal interview of a labor-friendly organic t-shirt maker. No Sweat hires union workers around the world. A shop just opened at Harvard Square.

[CEO Adam Neiman] says he visited with Charney in the past to discuss unions. “Dov only saw this as a marketing ploy,” says Neiman. “And as he says repeatedly, people are much more interested — and clearly he’s more interested in — sex and soft-core porn than in worker’s rights.”

But do No Sweat's tees fit as well as those made by American Apparel? AA posted $250 million in sales this year so far for good reason, 83 times more than what little No Sweat sells.
