Sharing the GladRags Love
Every so often we like to share a few of the love letters and rave reviews we get here at GladRags. Have your own story of how reusables changed your life? Let us know in the comments!
P.S. We love you too!
I am so glad my sister bought me my first set (and the set I still use) of GladRags about 4 years ago. They were the most useful gift I have ever received. Every time I use them, I feel so good about myself for keeping all those pads from going into the landfills. I live in China, so I was sharing with one of my Chinese friends how I don't use disposables. She was shocked, and related to me that all women in the Chinese countryside used to use something similar to GladRags (and some still do), only until recent years. When I informed her of the impact on the planet and how this isn't gross at all, she decided to get on board and have her mother make her some cloth pads too! Some people I talk to still think cloth pads are gross, but I hope to change their minds too. My Chinese friends have really taught me so much about reducing, reusing and recycling. I hope I can share some of this knowledge with them too. -- Amanda
Thank you very much for your outstanding product! I just received my order this week and love my new pads. I cannot believe how comfortable they are and how fresh I feel! There is nothing like soft flannel against your skin! I wish I knew about these sooner. I bought my first few liners from Earthward in Amherst, NH and then contacted your company and placed a larger order. Thank you for the prompt shipping and awesome customer service! I will be telling all of my friends about your awesome company! I am doing a great thing for my body and the Earth as well! Thank you GladRags! -- Kristine
I must have bought my first set of three purple pads in 1992, that was the year I moved to Portland. I bought a second set of three about a year later. Both sets are still with me and working fine. The second set of black envelopes (with orange patterned inserts) has gotten a bit threadbare, but honestly, I think I've had them 18 years and they're still quite functional! The sewing around the edge hasn't lost a stitch. One of the best investments I've ever made environmentally and financially! -- Katrina
