Zwolle, Netherlands in my apartment. Before that it was fabricated industrially, probably in Asia.
One old pair of jeans and some new fabric for more strength.
Germany with my father before being made into these new jeans and now they live in the Netherlands.
My makers (everyone involved in the whole supply chain) has to be paid a living wage. It is the producers responsibility to ensure this. However the fast fashion industry is part of a bigger problem that requires fundamental systemic change. So one law can only be the beginning.
I deserve a seat in the PoSF because I tell a story of my owners and my makers. I combine the past with the present and the future. I give comfort to my owners. Since my journey is long, I can advocate for everyone involved during my life.
