Filter by Fabric. It's not 'fleece', 'silky', or 'mesh'. Call for clear, accurate product descriptions.

Every synthetic garment ever made still exists in some form…

Choosing natural fabrics should be easier. Why should the fabrics that touch our skin every single day remain a mystery, hidden behind vague adjectives like silky, mesh, or fleece? They cloak the truth, leaving the consumer in the dark about the actual fabric that makes up their clothing. Demand truthful product descriptions so we can filter by fabric.

Sign The Pledge

A call for clear product descriptions for the clothes you buy and sell.

I believe in the power of informed choices to create real change. I urge all brands and retailers to step up to adopt a Filter by Fabric option and add honest fabric descriptions to all apparel product names.

We commit to offering a "Filter by Fabric" option and including clear fabric descriptions in product names. Together, we can drive positive change, help consumers make more informed choices and reduce the fashion industry's environmental impact.
