H&M Wants Your Old Clothes!


This is pretty cool: starting February 2013, H&M is starting a clothes recycling initiative! As mentioned in this article, up to 95% of clothing can be recycled, either by being reused for fabric and textiles or by being passed along to others to be reworn. H&M is the first fashion company to offer a green, global opportunity like this!

The process sounds pretty simple:
  • Bring in your old clothes (no matter the brand).
  • Drop them off at a bin by the checkout.
  • Get a $5 voucher for your next H&M purchase.
A good way to start off the year -- purge your closet, recycle what you're no longer using... and then "support the economy" with a coupon.

Think you'll take advantage of H&M's recycling?
