Clothes Guaranteed to Last for 10 Years
Hand-Me-Down is a new line of clothes from Howie guaranteed to last for 10 years and maybe longer.
While it tackles sustainability issues from a manufacturer’s point of view (creating a better product so people consume less), it raises questions about consumer habits.

Or does this just mean that the coat will be left gathering dust at a second hand store for the next 9.5 years?
