There are online retailers like Backcountry.com that have organic clothing for men. They market for the outdoor industry but they can work in any casual environment.

Eco-Friendly Handbags

Backcountry.com stocks organic outdoor apparel…

Outdoor sports online retailer Backcountry has been around since 1995. They stock some garments that are made out of organic cotton material. The outdoor apparel industry has been one of the first clothing sectors that is rapidly going to manufacturing their clothes out of organic material. Perhaps, it is because outdoor enthusiasists live and breathe the environment and as a result they are more eco conscious when it comes to their consumer habits.

They have a few selections for women. Below are most of them. For men, I will write another post…
