Reduce

Did you know the fashion industry is the second biggest polluter in the world?

– Aproximately 20% of all industrial water pollution comes from treating and dying textiles.

– The clothing industry is the second biggest polluter of clean water.

– One cotton t-shirt takes 700 gallons of water to produce and 2,000 gallons of water to make 1 pair of jeans.

– 95% of discarded clothing can be recycled or upcycled, giving that item new life. 

Reuse

Each time you buy a recycled kids’ item at Kid to Kid, that’s one less item that you might buy new, meaning you’re reducing the demand for the production of new products. This not only saves precious resources every year, but it continues to support getting the latest trends in fashion in ways that are safe, sustainable, and ethical. If a clothing item is used for an additional nine months, we reduce that item’s carbon, water, and waste impact by 20-30 percent. Kid to Kid is committed to helping keep you fashionable while making the planet a better place.
