Children's clothes are bought cheap these days with dire consequences for the environment and foreign workers. Cheap clothing often ends up in landfill sooner than we expected and while it's briefly worn by our children, cheap clothing, especially waterproof outerwear, gives off toxins that were used in its production. Enter: Faire Child, from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada, who raised money on Kickstarter to purchase specialized fabric made with yarn spun from used plastic bottles in Italy that can be woven into children's raincoats, rain pants, rain caps, and backpacks. Perfect for our Canadian climate and rainy days around the world.

Faire Child is designed and made right here in Canada by Tabitha Osler, a fashion designer, teacher, and parent working toward a sustainable future. The best part? Once the garments are no longer needed, Faire Child takes them back and recycles them, officially closing the loop on this company's cradle to cradle production.
