I would love to hear your opinion: We need companies who are doing their best in sustainable development and we need brands that tackle the main problems of textile supply chains. MAC has improved a lot for some years, like working with hemp or alternative materials for trims. Keep up that work! But what does my LinkedIn community think about the claim mentioned below? The wording is quite misleading, as it makes you think, that not only the fabric but also the cotton originates from Germany. My question about the origin of the cotton, and the actual risk of the wording, in the original post was left without a reaction from the company for a week now. So I would love to hear your thoughts... See my comment on the original post: "Sounds great! May I ask: Is the fabric woven in Germany or does the cotton also come from Germany? Your text sounds like the raw material was grown in Germany, which would be very challenging according to the climate, right?"

SEQUEL TO THE "MADE IN GERMANY" SERIES 👖🇩🇪 Last year, MAC has successfully introduced a "Made in Germany" capsule that was 100% made in Germany. The limited-edition menswear styles now return in the current fall/winter collection and come with a material upgrade for the cold season. A high-quality corduroy fabric mixed with organic cotton from Germany combines warming properties with maximum comfort. A positive side effect: producing close to home reduces emissions and creates jobs in the region. 👉 Discover our "Made in Germany" styles: https://lnkd.in/e8fYsC_r #madeingermany #organiccotton #lennoxsport #macjeans #macjeans_official
