Did you know that a single pair of jeans can 'cost' up to 10,000 liters of water? That's as much as you'd use taking a daily shower for several months. Jeans production is one of the most resource-intensive processes in the fashion industry – which is why more and more people are wondering how to truly reduce their water footprint.
Studies show various values – and all are shocking:
3,781 liters – according to a life cycle analysis of jeans conducted by Levi's, this is the average water consumption associated with the production and use of one pair (fluencecorp.com).
10,000 liters – in broader estimates, covering the entire cotton production and dyeing process, this number can be more than twice as high (Harvard Business School – Levi Strauss case study).
Regardless of the methodology – it's clear: every additional pair of jeans means thousands of liters less water in the natural cycle.
By buying or selling used clothes, you support circular fashion – a system where items circulate longer instead of quickly ending up in the trash.
