Overview:   I usually have a good experience when I buy Hurley products. I buy a lot of their tees and after much use, the shirt is still in great condition. The front design itself shows that they don't use much dyeing, except for the shirt as a whole, so it's somewhat sustainable. The design seems to be made of some kind of polyfilament so chemicals are involved in the production of the design. But I am going to assume the polyfilament is a lot more sustainable than screenprint dyeing. This shirt costs around $20 so it shows that the labor costs was met accordingly to Mexican wages.
