H&M: Sustainability

Celebrate Earth Month with partnering brands that are taking positive steps towards an environmental transition with in-store events, special offers, and installations! Plus, be sure to join us at The Good Festival on May 11 from 11AM - 4PM for a day filled with eco-conscious fun and inspiration. Donate old jeans and bring a second pair to have 'revived', explore eco-conscious brand initiatives and innovative products, admire the sustainable art and fashion ready-to-wear looks from Berkeley College students, and so much more! RSVP here.

Bring any unwanted clothes or textiles, by any brand and in any condition, to an H&M store. Hand in your bag of old clothes at the register and receive a thank-you coupon to use toward your next purchase. Easy! Once you’ve dropped off your previously loved fashion in one of the garment collecting boxes, an H&M business partner takes over. It empties the boxes and sorts the contents into three categories; rewear: wearable clothes are marketed as secondhand clothing. Reuse: If the clothes or textiles are not suitable for re-wear, they’re turned into other products, such as remake collections or cleaning cloths. Recycle: All other clothes and textiles are shredded into textile fibers and used to make, for example, insulation materials.
