If 10,000 NY Baby Biters wear a onesie made from recycled materials instead of a new one, we'll keep the weight of over 150 strollers in pesticides from blanketing the environment.
Americans own a collective 1.5 bil T-shirts; laid end-to-end, that's enough to circle the Earth 34 times.
A Ruby in the Rough
The Bite
Got a real gem hidden in that pile of old T-shirts? Before the moths have a field day, polish it up into something worth keeping: a Ruby and Dash kids' tee or onesie. No sappy bears-and-bows here: R&D collects unwanted adult college, concert, floral, whatever T-shirts, then hand-sews them into one-of-a-kind clothes for your little punk. Check out the custom-made online archives to see how that 1986 Kiss tour shirt you just can't throw away can be born again...on a newborn. You can even pick out a print to silkscreen on. Brilliant.
