Howies is a UK-based maker of fine organic cotton shirts, jeans and other fun stuff - for men and women. Started back in ‘95 from an apartment living room (sort of like starting something from the basement or garage, if you have a house), Howies uses only organic cotton and continues to work at lowering the impact of the dying process.

Plus, they pledge to give 1% of their turnover or 10% of pre-tax profits (whichever is greater) to grass-root environmental and social projects.
