Halbar is recreating fast fashion with the idea of slow fashion. 52% believe the quality of apparel has decreased in the last couple years, we see this as a reflection from fast fashion. Fast Fashion has provided cheap prices for a multitude of fast manufactured clothing; it has allowed quick fashion to keep up with trends and styles. However, this fast fashion has created enormous amounts of waste in energy and production with an immense amount of toxic waste. It takes 132 metric tons of coal to pro duce the 60 billion kilograms of textiles made each year. Cutting back on just 2.2 pounds of material can help reduce carbon emissions by nearly 8 pounds.

We a t h a l b a r a r e w o r k i n g t o d o j u s t t h a t i n o u r s l o w c r a f t s m a n s h i p o f o u r clothing. Our handmade clothing is made out of high quality materials, with a higher level of personal attention and quality control from our designers. It is made to last for years, rather than to be discarded after one or two seasons, in contrast to the fast-fashion consumerism that fuels demand for mass production.

There are multiple environmental benefits associated with recycling clothing. It reduces the amount of pesticides used in growing cotton or to make fabrics from petroleum sources and the water needed to dye fabrics, and cuts down on the pollutants, greenhouse gases and volatile organic compounds released into the water and air from manufacturing processes. 11

LOCATION BREAK DOWN: TOP 4 SUSTAINABLE STATES IN US + COLORADO benefits in ranking from above-average pollution scores, scoring sixth best for birth-defect inducing toxins and carcinogenic chemicals released into waterways. Colorado also ranks 12th in particle pollution. The “Centennial State” has very good policy scores, ranking seventh for energy saving targets, according to ACEEE’s assesment. More than 6% of Colorado’s total energy output is from alternative resources, the eighth best rating in the country. Population: 5,024,748 (22nd) GDP: $252.6 Billion (19th) Toxic Waste: 41,532 Tons (19th) Carbon Footprint: 98.1 Million Metric Tons (27th) Alternative Energy: 10.0% (14th)

+ OREGON ranks in the middle third for all of our pollution metrics, including 29th in EPA toxic waste violations and 33rd in toxic exposure, according to the RSEI index. On the other hand, Oregon does exceptionally well both in policy and alternative energy. In the Pew Center on Global Climate Change’s list of state energy-saving programs, Oregon has the second-most, behind only California. The state also produces the second-most hydroelectric energy, and the eighth most non-hydroelectric alternative energy, mostly from state wind farms. Population: 3,825,657 (27th) GDP: $165.6 Billion (26th) Toxic Waste: 61,876 Tons (23rd) Carbon Footprint: 43.5 Million Metric Tons (10th) Alternative Energy: 63.4% (3rd)

+ MONTANA is unofficially nicknamed “Big Sky Country.” It is understandable that residents would be proud of their air, as it is tied for the lowest rate of ozone particulates in the nation, according to the American Lung Association. The state also ranks well in many other categories. It ranks seventh for total energy used, however this is largely the result of the state’s relatively low population density, the third lowest in the country. Population: 974,989 (44th) GDP: $35 Billion (48th) Toxic Waste: 37,758 Tons (17th) Carbon Footprint: 37.7 Million Metric Tons (9th) Alternative Energy: 36.5% (6th)

+ IDAHO generates the greatest relative amount of renewable energy in the country, with 84.5% of all energy coming from alternative sources. Idaho ranks fifth for producing geothermal energy thanks to its unique terrain, and sixth for conventional hydroelectric power, thanks to the Snake River Plain and the state’s smaller rivers. Furthermore, the state has the fourth lowest rate of CO2 emissions from fossil fuel combustion. This is largely the result of the state’s extensive use of renewable energy. Population: 1,545,801 (39th) GDP: $54 Billion (42nd) Toxic Waste: 4,808 Tons (9th) Carbon Footprint: 16.2 Million Metric Tons (4th) Alternative Energy: 84.5% (1st)

+ When leaving with your garment, hang it straight back into a hand in a well-ventilated location.

+ Freshen the garment by leaving it in a steam bathroom while showering.

+ Spot clean or hand wash in cold water using cold-water or biodegradable specific detergents.

+ Do not discard used products. Donate or recycle the iteams and give us an ot h e r opp or tu n it y to te l l an ot h e r stor y.

+ Reduce carb on emissions by switching to cold water. Energ y Star states that almost 90% of the energy consumed by a washing machine goes to heating water. In fact, each household that makes the switch to coldwater washing eliminates about 1,600 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions a year.

international focus + Vancouver Canada Vancouver is said to be the world’s greenest city by 2020. The city is most known for using renewable resources like wind, solar, and wave power. 90 percent of the power supply is hydroelectric. Vancouver also has the lowest per capita carbon emission of any major city and is aimed to decrease emission by an additional 33 percent by 2020. They also enforce strict “green building” restriction codes in which all new developements must be carbon neautral.

+ Oslo, Norway In Oslo, Norway, 2/3 of the area is covered in protected forest, waterways and agricultural land. The town has city lighting that adjusts by traffic conditions and weather. They are key in using bio-methane from waste to power mass trasit and heating and provide biking programs to reduce transportation emissions. Oslo has implemented an increased number of electrical cars that receive free parking, free tolls and access to lanes generally reserved for public transportation. Heating systems are powered by 80 percent renewable energy-biomass from residual waste. Within the next decade, Oslo pans on using 100% renewable energy for heating and aims to cut carbon emissions by 50 percent by year 2050.

+ Curitiba, Brazil Susainability, energy efficiency and anything environment friendly has been in Curitiba, Brazil’s plan of action since the early 1970s. There are nore than 52 square meters of green space per resident and more than 1.5 millions trees are planted and over 28 parks and forests developed. Inexpensive and fast transit service for resients are used to reduce vehicle emissions. A key finding is that 90 percent of residents recycle 2/3 of their daily garbage. Consumers are able to exchange trash for trasit tokens or fresh produce. This system has reducted waste in even the poorest sections of Curitiba. Mayor Jamie Lerner states, “When a city accepts as a mandate its quality of life; when it respects the people who live in it; when it respects the environmWWWent; when it prepares for future generations, the people share the responsibility for that mandate.”

+ Copenhagen, Denmark In Copenhagen, more than 1/3 of the city’s 1.2 population regularly bike to work, leaving 217 miles throughout the city dedicated to bike lanes. The city is aiming for 50 percent of the population to bike for transportation by the year 2015 which will close down major roads to cars and develop 43 more miles of bike lanes for transportation. Copenhagen is known for having the largest wind tubine industry in the world and is the leader in win production with roughly 19 percent of the country’s power needs is by wind. There is a well0known offshore wind farm planned for this year that wil feature 111 turbines that will supply an additional 4 percent of power needs. Copenhagen’s ultimate goal is to be the first carbon neural capital by year 2025. A mandatory green roof policy will be implemented and will require all new developments to incorporate vegetation into building designs. Parks are being installed so that by year 2015 all residents will be able to walk to a green location in less than 15 minutes. 38

A shir t reused saves the environmental cost of a new shirt produced. Our designs reuse what was already there eliminating the production costs and moving forward with creating a quality product.

jacket backpack

hooded vest

what was... The hooded vest was once a Cotton T-shirt which would take anywhere from 700 to 2,000 gallons of water to produce about a pound of conventional cotton – enough for a single T-shirt or 3.5% of the total amount of water used in crop production worldwide. This also pollutes 50 billion cubic meters of water every y e a r. B u t t h e r e a l i s s u e i s n’t n e c e s s a r i l y P T F E , w h i c h i s c h e m i c a l l y i n e r t a n d non-toxic, but the synthetic chemical used in its production – perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA).

what is... Our T-shirt vest is made out of goretex a breathable waterproof fabric. Goretex is made from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), as included in non-stick frying pans. Halbar benefits from the reuse of this toxic production process, thus saving 42 gallons of oil and half a ton of toxic air emissions for every 150 products produced.

what was... A combination of rayon and polyester fabricate to produce the raincoat. Rayon is an interesting fabric due to its artificial origin but made from naturally occurring fibers. However souring is minimal, wood grown intensively in appropriate areas can cause soil degradation and erosion. In addition can cause high air pollution and water emissions. Polyesters can be added to the blend that produced the raincoat; the laminated or coated poly is covered with PVC films which are generally the least exp ensive for longer-term fabrications. However, polyester is a non-renewable resource with minimal local sources available.

what is... Halbar has a benefit where they can take this old product and turn it around a n d o r s o u r c e p r o d u c t m a d e f r o m Te n c e l , a n a l t e r n a t i v e f i b e r.

The tiny amount of remaining emissions is decomposed in biological purification plants.

harem pant skirt

sleeping jacket

what was... The sleeping jacket – a by-product of rayon, viscose, acetate – has its benefits along with challenges. Rayon is a renewable purified wood pulp resource that is reusable and biodegradable. However souring is minimal, wood grown intensively in appropriate areas can cause soil degradation and erosion. In addition can cause high air pollution and water emissions.

B e i n g f r o m Wa s h i n g t o n , w e c o n s i d e r wood fibers to be a renewable resource, but it still takes a lot of energy and some nasty chemicals to produce rayon. Again, our advice would be to care for your rayon to maximize its lifespan and try not to buy newly manufactured rayon.

Polye s te rs l am i nated or coated with PVC films are generally the least expensive for long-term fabrications. However, p olyester is a non-renewable resource with minimal local sources available. With a long line of processing there often involves use of carcinogenic chemicals such as benzene, toluene, arsenic and heavy metals.

what is... At Halbar we take this product forget the waste of production and take into consideration

that

sometimes

other

materials

such as nylon, taking 30-40 years to decompose. This is a major benefit for our re purposed designs that create quality with life span.

T h e f i b e r i s u s e d i n it s l e a st pro c e ss st ate w h i ch pro vides a bio degradable material that can b e rec ycled. However, wo ol often involves the use of pesticides and fertilizers and can consume large amounts of water and chemicals and pro duce heavily p olluted wastewater. The sheep that are farming can degrade the land.

what is... Now if we all looked to Halbar and promoted this reuse ideal of use what you have, do what you can and if everyone bought just one reclaimed woolen garment each year, it would save an average of 300 million gallons of water and 400 tons of chemical dyes.

With a long line of processing, the process often involves use of carcinogenic chemicals such as benzene, toluene, arsenic and heavy metals. Many of the dyes and carriers that are added are allergy provoked. Most sleeping bag productions are manufactured out of goose down, which bears some responsibility for the carbon cost of raising geese and the portion becomes significant due to the intensity of the methane (produced by geese) as a green house gas.

The material becomes a non-degradable fabrica-

hammock pant

what was... Cotton is the primary product for use in the hammock pant. The fiber once benefited in the local sources available, biodegradability and rapidly renewable resources. However, cotton can use large quantities of insecticides and fer tilizers during production, in addition to intensive farming can lead to land degradation and the numb er one kno ck is the use of large amounts of water. Ab out 1,500 gallons of water are required to produce the 1.5 pounds of cotton used to make a single pair of jeans, not including the water used to dye and finish t h e f a b r i c .

In addition to create a bonus garment, we try to reuse 100% organically grown cotton, which does not use pesticides, herbicides, synthetic fertilizers or defoliants at any point in its growth and development. Cotton grown in the United States uses comparatively less water; although about a third of a pound of chemical pesticides and fertilizers go into each pound of conventionally-grown American cotton. 59
