We teamed up with @shaleyjgunther, @jenny.grady, and local photographer @vikmargarita to bring you HumanKind's first ever lookbook! May this inspire you to make fair trade a lifestyle--something deeply integrated in all that you do. HumanKind doesn't just sell products, we provide our customers with handmade goods from around the world that enable artisans in developing countries to earn a sustainable livelihood and create better futures for their families and their communities. This lookbook is here to show you that ethical shopping doesn't mean sacrificing fashion!
Kantha, or “patched cloth,” is an embroidery tradition coming from countries such as India and Bangladesh in the Bengal region of South Asia. Kantha refers to both the tradition and the actual stitch involved in producing unique quilted blankets out of worn cotton saris, sewn together with a distinctive running stitch that covers the entire quilt.
At HumanKind, we want to empower YOU to purchase ethically made goods so that you can make your dollars count toward doing some good in the world. On this World Fair Trade Day, you can make a difference!

What if it was as simple as purchasing a pair of pants? Well, we have good news: a new pair of pants can make that difference.
