I love the American Apparel long-sleeve waffle shirt. You can’t do it too much. If you wear a long-sleeve black T-shirt every single day, nobody’s going to say, “That guy wears a long-sleeve black T-shirt too much.” If you’re wearing a sweatshirt that says “Gap Est. 1969″ on it, you’ve got a couple days of wearing that before someone goes, “Why don’t you do some laundry?”

American Apparel, Charney’s clothing company, is going against the trend of globalization in clothing manufacturing; he’s making mad cash with unbranded T-shirts, all locally produced in his downtown L.A. factory.

There are garment factories in the U.S. where employees have union contracts, get full family health benefits, decent wages, three and four weeks of paid vacations, a decent pension and respect from their supervisors. When you buy a shirt, a dress, a suit or a T-shirt from these companies, you can shop with a conscience. This isn’t the case at American Apparel.
