Unlike other companies jumping on the green bandwagon to create profits or make their shareholders feel good about their investment, Clothing of the American Mind (cotam.org) has been green since its inception in March of 2004. COTAM is a grassroots company deeply committed to creating apparel that is environmentally safe and responsible, politically and socially conscious, sweatshop free, American made and Fair Trade.
