Westerners often pay a high hidden price for their inexpensive clothing. Low-paid labor in developing countries is often responsible for many of the new designs you see in your favorite stores, particularly if the items are low priced. Furthermore, industrial textile production uses a lot of energy and creates a lot of waste. But there is a better way to make high quality clothing that’s affordable. At Divine Ray, that’s exactly what we do.

Sweatshop Labor Is Costly to Society

Sweatshop laborers may provide a little money to desperately poor families, but the personal costs can be very steep. Families may be broken up for years at a time, and workers often face grueling hours, very low pay, and high risk of injury or illness. But you have an alternative: eco friendly shirts and other clothing items, made by rural artisans without sweatshops.

Khadi Clothing Supports Individuals and their Families

Handwoven shirts made by the Khadi process come from rural areas of India and are made from fabrics that are much friendlier to the environment than traditional textile manufacturers. Eco friendly shirts are available in classic styles that will see you through many seasons beautifully. And when you purchase them, you help keep small industry thriving.

Beautiful Fabric Can Be Made Without Electricity

Hand woven shirts can be made from fabrics that are created entirely without electricity. From the spinning process to the dyeing process, all steps are done by hand, without electrical machinery. The results are beautiful fabrics that cannot be duplicated by machines, and clothing that you will love to wear. The styles are classic and work with most wardrobes, and the colors are brilliant and beautiful.

Friendlier to the Planet and Its Inhabitants

Environmental destruction is a big price to pay for inexpensive clothing. Rethink your choices in clothing and learn about how your favorite garments are produced. There are alternatives today like hand woven shirts that are friendlier to the earth and its inhabitants, and that are affordable and stylish. At Divine Ray, we bring you clothing you won’t find elsewhere that’s produced with care for the environment and for the people who weave the fabrics.
