The Hot Love Movement

Where did the name The Hot Love Movement come from?

Simply put, it means being PASSIONATE about humanity and the environment we live in.

top

What is your mission?

The Hot Love Movement has the mission of creating a shift in global consciousness through spreading love, peace, sustainability and freedom of expression one person at a time.

top

What are the 4 pillars?

As you see by our mission, spreading love, peace, sustainability and freedom of expression are at the core of everything we do. Think of the 4 pillars as the foundation of the movement.

top

How did the movement start?

Very good question! About two years ago, it birthed from our shared appreciation for t-shirts. We wanted to make our own and express ourselves through them. Once we began tossing ideas around, not only did we realize that we have similar taste in fashion, but that our views of the world and our dreams of a better place are also the same. It made sense for our designs to express our stance on current events and issues as well as our aspirations to help better this planet that we all share.

What does my purchase support?

Your purchase supports PROJECTSUSTAIN.org. Project Sustain is a global effort focused on demonstrating the importance that sustainable development and the environment has far beyond global warming. Project Sustain is working to create models of self-sustainable development for low-income rural and urban populations in the US and abroad through the use of high-efficiency and low-cost technologies in the fields of renewable energy and agricultural science. The goal is to demonstrate tangible shifts in literacy rates, overall health, economic growth and political freedom just by addressing issues that most of us take for granted. Check out www.projectsustain.org for more information.

What percentage goes to the cause?

Right now, approximately 20% of net profits go directly to support project sustain. As the movement continues to grow, so to will the percentage donated to Project Sustain.

Tell me about your products?

One glance, and you can quickly tell that we have a message, which we are currently spreading through fashion. However, we don’t consider ourselves a fashion company. In the future, we plan to use many different mediums to connect, inspire and empower.

top

Are your products produced using sustainable processes?

Our t-shirts and hoodies are made from environmentally safe, organically grown cotton. They are produced right here in the United States, using fair labor practices. The Print/Dye process does not use PVC and phthalates. We use water-based inks instead of plastisol (so no worries, if you iron touches the design!)

As our product line expands, we will continue to explore new and exciting ways to provide you products made out the of best materials (both new and recycled) and that are all conscious of the planet!

top

Where do the designs come from?

From us, from you, from the world around us.

top

Washing instructions?

Since our neck label states that our shirts are made from 100% organic cotton, we figured that it self explanatory to wash the shirts in the same manner you would wash any other cotton shirts. We recommend that you wash your shirt with like colors and that you use an eco friendly detergent containing a lot less chemicals. They are just as efficient, smell much better and are not detrimental for our environment.
