Top chains are urged to ban sandblasted jeans

quote [ "Dead workers aren't fashionable," said Sam Maher, co-author of Labour Behind the Label's Killer Jeans report ]

Ah well, this wears out lungs, too. This is from 2011, for the record.

aand it seems like the campaign was partly a success with some bans. Don't know how they achieve the worn-out look otherwise, though:

Hire people to wear jeans until they have the worn-out look. Then label them eco-friendly, organic, all natural, cruelty-free, locally sourced and sell them for lots of money.

If companies were forced to pay the families of the people they kill, they would probably try to kill fewer people.
