Cute apron.

Like you, Will, I run websites that aren't for profit. I am willing to donate my time and skills, but somethings cost money – like hosting. I think your apron idea is a good one – and fits with the theme and readership of this blog.

Honestly there is nothing wrong with selling a couple of things to support a good and just cause. The tact, or lack of in which the selling is done is the important issue.
There are numerous union made and cooperative distributors, both within the u.s., and without that can create these goods. Support of sweatshops and distributors that exploit people may benefit a cause through increased revenue in the short term but in the long term display hypocricy, devalue virtues and echo the sentiments of so many corporations that have been shouted down by many of us for putting “profits over people.” A clear line is drawn. Whether the “green” anarchist movement embraces exploitation for the defense of it’s political prisoners remains to be seen. This is solely a criticism of a tactic of exploitation I find reprehensible and vanguardist, and have never condoned nor used in my projects. Very free market capitalist in nature. To make a point, dialogue and critical comments do not equate negative, as we suppose ourselves anarchists shouldn’t we be able to voice our opinions, or should we toe a party line? I assume this is not what is intended by green is the new red?
That being said, good luck with the projects, and if you need a distributor that is cooperative, or union made the person responsible can feel free to contact me

@R:
The aprons are adjustable at the neck–to give you an idea of fit, I’m about 6′3″, and the apron comes down to about 4 inches above my knee (it can be longer by adjusting the neck all the way). Hope that helps! Will

Hi Matt,
We use USPS. Sorry for any inconvenience. Perhaps there is another address you could use? Thanks!

Do you know what shipping provider this site uses? USPS doesn’t ship directly to me at my university. UPS and FedEx work fine, though. Thanks.
