- 4:38retail.
- 4:39And
- 4:39not
- 4:39to
- 4:39mention
- 4:40there
- 4:40is
- 4:40also
- 4:40the
- 4:40sustainability
- 4:41angle
- 4:42of
- 4:42this,
- 4:42Chris.
- 4:42And
- 4:42I
- 4:43think
- 4:43that
- 4:43this
- 4:43could
- 4:43be
- 4:43an
- 4:43interesting
- 4:44play
- 4:44that
- 4:44they
- 4:44didn't
- 4:45really
- 4:45touch
- 4:45on
- 4:45in
- 4:45the
- 4:46article,
- 4:46but
- 4:47she
- 4:47is
- 4:47under
- 4:47so
- 4:48much,
- 4:48well,
- 4:49she
- 4:49is
- 4:49under
- 4:49so
- 4:49much
- 4:50pressure
- 4:50for
- 4:51the
- 4:51textiles
- 4:51waste
- 4:52that
- 4:52they're
- 4:52putting
- 4:52out
- 4:53into
- 4:53the
- 4:53world
- 4:53because
- 4:54of
- 4:54their
- 4:54rapid
- 4:55manufacturing.
- 4:56If
- 4:57people
- 4:57get
- 4:57the
- 4:57products
- 4:58at
- 4:58home,
- 4:58it's
- 4:59not
- 4:59easy
- 4:59to
- 4:59exchange
- 5:00that
- 5:00or
- 5:00not
- 5:00worth
- 5:00the
- 5:01money
- 5:01to
- 5:01exchange
- 5:01it.
- 5:02So
- 5:02they
- 5:02just
- 5:02end
- 5:02up
- 5:03becoming
- 5:03waste.
- 5:04And
- 5:04so
- 5:05I'm
- 5:05curious
- 5:05to
- 5:06see
- 5:06that
- 5:07if
- 5:07they
- 5:07have
- 5:07these

- 5:08and
- 5:08shops,
- 5:08will
- 5:08they

- 5:11for
- 5:11a
- 5:11scenario
- 5:12where
- 5:12they
- 5:12might
- 5:12be
- 5:12able
- 5:12to
- 5:13bring
- 5:13in
- 5:14their
- 5:14Shein
- 5:15product
- 5:15that
- 5:15they
- 5:15didn't
- 5:16like
- 5:16or,
- 5:16or
- 5:16was
- 5:17the
- 5:17wrong
- 5:17size
- 5:17or
- 5:18didn't
- 5:18fit
- 5:18as
- 5:18they
- 5:18expected
- 5:19and
- 5:19then
- 5:20that
- 5:20could
- 5:20be
- 5:20recycled
- 5:21and
- 5:21they
- 5:21get
- 5:21a
- 5:21credit
- 5:22to
- 5:22shop
- 5:22the
- 5:22Shein
- 5:23in
- 5:23the
- 5:23store
- 5:23or
- 5:23something
- 5:24like
- 5:24that.
- 5:24Like,
- 5:24I
- 5:24still
- 5:25think
- 5:25that
- 5:25France
- 5:26especially
- 5:26is
- 5:26going
- 5:27to
- 5:27be
- 5:27very
- 5:27tight
- 5:28on
- 5:28Sheehan
- 5:28and
- 5:28watching
- 5:29the
- 5:29waste
- 5:29that
- 5:30they,
- 5:30they
- 5:30put
- 5:31out
- 5:31from
- 5:32being
- 5:32in
- 5:32physical
- 5:33retail
- 5:33there.
- 5:33So
- 5:33I
- 5:33think
- 5:34that
- 5:34could
- 5:34be
- 5:34an
- 5:34interesting
- 5:35play
- 5:35for
- 5:35them
- 5:35too
- 5:36to
- 5:36start
- 5:36to
- 5:36test
- 5:37and
- 5:37see
- 5:37like
- 5:37what
- 5:37kinds
- 5:38of
- 5:38things
- 5:38we
- 5:39do
- 5:39in
- 5:39store
- 5:40that
- 5:40reduce
- 5:41our
- 5:42sustainability
- 5:43footprint.
- 5:44So
- 5:44that's
- 5:44another
- 5:44thing.
- 5:45You
- 5:46had
- 5:46me
- 5:46up
- 5:46until
- 5:46sustainability.
- 5:47I
- 5:47think
- 5:47putting
- 5:47fast
- 5:48fashion
- 5:48into
- 5:49more
- 5:49stores
- 5:50and
- 5:50more
- 5:50units
- 5:51through
- 5:51that
- 5:51fast
- 5:51fashion
- 5:52process
- 5:52has
- 5:52me
- 5:52a
- 5:52little
- 5:53skeptical
- 5:53of
- 5:53that
- 5:53argument.
- 5:54But
- 5:54I
- 5:54100%
- 5:54agree
- 5:54with
- 5:55everything
- 5:55you
- 5:55said
- 5:55up
- 5:55until
- 5:56that
- 5:56point.
