We practice this idea through the sales of a variety of new, used and re-created clothing that gives people another way to shop green. Vintage clothing and gently-used second-hand clothing, which we call Recycled Clothing, makes up the used clothing inventory. A variety of companies that manufacture Organic cotton clothing makes up our new inventory, which is all made under non-sweatshop or fair trade labor practices. Tuff Soul's one-of-a-kind reconstructed clothing is made right here in our shop, from recycled clothing and materials. Tuff Soul is located in Ithaca, NY a city known for being one of the Green cities in America because of its green building and use of alternative energy.
