You may have seen a while back that Levi are now selling organic jeans. For those of us who are optimists this was another victory. Hurrah, another company going ethical...
Hold on a minute though. Becky, a fellow ethical enthusiast at TC, has just stumbled across this:
"We regret to announce that Levi Strauss & Co. (LS&Co.) has resigned from ETI [Ethical Trading Initiative] following their suspension for refusing to adopt the ‘Living Wage ’ provision of the ETI Base Code."
Shock horror! Looks like it's back to Howies!
