I went through a phase of buying GAP boxershorts before I knew anything about the company. This is something I'm often reminded of for example when getting changed at the swimming pool etc. Do other people think me bad for wearing them, given their terrible reputation for non-ethical production?

Then I wonder: would it not be worse to get rid of these garments because they were made in sweatshops than to keep them? To get rid would surely be making a mockery of the whole thing - i.e. people died to make them and yet I don't even respect them enough to continue to wear them now that I know where they came from. I don't know really what I think of this, but I would love to see more fair trade clothing.
