I wish that every one of CafePress’ shirt designs were made sweatshop-free, whether by American Apparel, or a garment union, or by a reputable overseas fair trade manufacturer.

But CafePress has taken a step in the right direction with the introduction of the American Apparel Junior Jersey T-Shirt line, and it deserves congratulations for doing so. We’re happy to begin offering the Junior Jersey in our CafeShops, right now, today. Should CafePress offer more sweatshop-free goods, we’ll be glad to add them to our catalog as well.
