Give your old shirt a new home

We all have a surplus of shirts at the back of our wardrobes that we never wear; it’s now time to dig them out and head on down to this year’s “National Shirt Exchange Week”, which runs from September 26^th to October 2^nd. To mix things up, T.M.Lewin is teaming up with Shelter, a housing and homelessness charity, which not only means the shirts that you don’t want become something that someone else does want, but you’re also doing your bit as a good samaritan.

Each shirt you donate will be given to Shelter, and in return T.M.Lewin will donate £2 per sale. And before you start making an excuse like, “But I can’t make it to the store!” there will also be a shirt exchange initiative available online, where you will be sent a donation bag to take shirts to your local Shelter store.

To celebrate this wonderful cause, T.M.Lewin will be building a house made of donated shirts in Paternoster Square, London (26^th) and in Spinningfields, Manchester (28^th) from 8am to 6:30pm. There’s just one condition – the “White Label” collection is not included in this initiative. But get on down and help out – who knows, you might even spot a famous face or two.
