I was wondering which designers/companys still use this as a means of manufacturing...

I know that Liz Clabourne, The Body Shop and Nike did...do they still? Any others?
Cuz I don't agree with it and I don't really wanna support a company or designer that does but most people don't realize which companys do this so they are buying their products with out realizing how they are made.
 
I know for sure that The Gap, Inc. did. Not sure if they are still doing that today, since it was exposed in public on the news. They had their sweatshops in Honduras I think, and the girls who worked in these sweatshops complained about extreme unfair treatment...they even had lawyers to back them up. Not sure if they took it far as to bring a major lawsuit against the Gap, but I do know that it was brought out into the public that the corporation did these things. I also wanted to add that we never know what is really happening until we find out the truth like how I found out about the Gap. Since the time that these injustices were exposed, I haven't shopped there. Look at the horrendous prices...its never been that expensive before.
 
That's a good point The Gap has increased their pricing yet everything still looks the same in terms of style and quality...I forgot about The Gap actually I heard about that too
