Hurray for options! Made in the USA, sweatshop-free or not. It's interesting that Urban Outfitters priced their leggings out to be the same as American Apparels, especially since we all know "Made in China" is cheaper than "Made in Downtown LA".
I'd like to take this opportunity to complain about the decline in quality at Urban Outfitters. Erin recently bought a pair of tights that snagged almost instantly, and I bought a woven belt that was assembled backwards. And a couple weeks ago, my friend Rose tried on a dress. It would have been cute if the straps weren't different lengths! Anyone else notice this?

They also have hoodies that look like the American Apparel flex fleece hoodies. Haven't really paid attention to the quality of the clothes though since everything is way over what I can afford.
