Recycled Patchwork Jacket Stock Arrives


After an almost-sellout of our Fair Trade Jackets from Nepal, we're glad to say that new stock has arrived to replenish this popular fall and winter apparel item!

Made of recycled cotton patches, the leftover pieces from other makings, this cotton hoodie is popular among women of all ages. Each one is completely unique in color, embroidery, and patches, so you're the only one in the world wearing it.

Because it's an Avatar Fair Trade jacket, a portion of proceeds are funding an orphanage in Nepal. The photos of these smiling Nepalese orphan children will melt your heart! It's a real way to "Wrap yourself in the warmth of compassion" this winter.

The price of the jackets is $39.95 and we have them available in the Worldgoods Fair Trade store in size Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large. We recommend ordering one size bigger in case you plan to layer clothing underneath. The jacket is machine washable, on cold, and features a zipper on the front.

Thanks for your support of all our Fair Trade items, including clothing, helping artisans lift themselves from poverty!
