Trashie
Trashie's Take Back Bag is the easiest way to get rid of clothing and other textiles you do not need anymore. Simply buy a bag (or a bundle of them) fill it up, mail it back, and Trashie will ensure those items never make it to landfills, rerouting them to third-party retailers Trashie individually vets for compatibility. That means your old T-shirt, depending on its condition, could end up going to someone in need or being broken down to create carpet padding or pet bed filling, among other things. You earn exactly $30 in TrashieCash for each bag you send back, which you can redeem for deals — direct cash equivalent or a certain percentage off — to buy yourself new things from your favorite brands.

Long gone are the days of stiff, wrinkled chinos. Modern pants are cut from a different (better) cloth, and Jack Archer's Jetsetter Tech Pants are a prime example. Crafted from premium Rebound fabric sourced from Japan, they're stretchy, wrinkle-free, anti-odor, and stain-resistant, making them great for travel. The fit provides room where it's needed but is slim where it's not, and is enhanced by a diamond-shaped gusset that prevents tightness in the crotch and the curved-waist design that provides a lift to the backside. Built with premium stitching, they also feature a zippered coin pocket and hidden reflective tape that's only revealed when they're cuffed. Now available in two cuts: the original, best-selling Slim Fit and the new Straight Fit, which offer a roomier fit from the knee down.
