What happens to clothes that can’t be repaired or donated?

Our take

When clothes can no longer be repaired or donated, they often face an uncertain fate. Many end up in landfills, contributing to the growing environmental crisis. However, some are repurposed or recycled, transforming worn fabrics into new materials or products. Innovative companies are emerging, creating sustainable solutions to combat textile waste. Understanding the lifecycle of clothing encourages mindful consumption and highlights the importance of choosing quality over quantity. By making informed choices, we can help reduce waste and promote a more sustainable fashion industry.
