Not being a world traveler, I'm confident that my clothes have been to more exotic places around the globe than I will ever be. Oh, the places my jeans have been - before I even bought them.
Rachel Louise Snyder reports from the far reaches of the multi-billion-dollar denim industry in search of the people who make your clothes.
From a cotton picker in Azerbaijan to a Cambodian seamstress, a denim maker in Italy to a fashion designer in New York, Snyder captures the human, environmental, and political forces at work in a complex and often absurd world. Neither polemic nor prescription, Fugitive Denim captures what it means to work in the twenty-first century.
Today you can purchase Fugitive Denim for $2.50.
