I worked in fast fashion retail for 12 years and saw a lot of horrible things. I have since left and started knitting/sewing my own clothes as well as trying to buy secondhand to the best of my ability. Amanda’s podcast reinforces why I do it and has opened my eyes to so much more than I could...Read full review »

Amanda, you are amazing. You are a truth teller and speak with an authority that I haven’t found in any similar podcast. For every 99 of us who love you, 1 person might have a different opinion. And you know what? You can’t control how they feel - full stop. We can only control ourselves. Lean...Read full review »

Amanda is great are breaking down and explaining why the fast fashion industry can sell such low priced, low quality clothes and still make a profit. She covers so many angles about how consumerism, marketing ploys, influencers, over-consumption, legal requirements, false beliefs about charitable...Read full review »

I listen intently to everything you have to say, it means so much. But you’re most recent podcast. Hit hard in a good way. The quote you made” nothing changes without people” and how we need to bring more people in to this community is so important. The one thing I really see on social media is...Read full review »

Please stay in the fight! I know it’s discouraging and fighting fast fashion is an enormous challenge. But you have reached me!! You have had an amazing and important impact on my life and shopping habits. Because of my size limitations and personal style preferences I can’t really shop at many...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to Clotheshorse for years now, but I’ve been holding off on writing a review until I could best articulate why I love this podcast so much. I read somewhere that the reason they think that Meghan Markle’s podcast didn’t succeed was because she was so guarded, and the best...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to only one podcast with any consistency for probably ten years now and this one has been the first one to replace it as my go-to, favorite podcast. I just started a job in retail so I was looking for podcasts about fashion and the industry in general. I got all that and so...Read full review »
QueenBreen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/17/23
I have learned so much from my podcast. My favorite thing about the Clotheshorse podcast is that Amanda takes incredibly well-researched deep dives on heavy and complex issues, but never makes the subject matter feel overwhelming or intimidating to us listeners. The podcast is smart, at times...Read full review »

Amanda’s detail-packed episodes reveal some of the hidden realities of clothing production & consumption in our society. I wish I had learned so much of this in college or even high school, but turns out a lot of people make money from hiding the truth! Amanda busts it all open with...Read full review »

I’ve been listening for 1 year or so at first I thought this was about fashion ins and outs etc and I was not about it but then realized that it’s about the most important thing- how to think about clothes and the environment and all the minutiae that is involved with it, a looking at how people...Read full review »

Having worked in the corporate retail/apparel industry for 15 years, I can say that Amanda is the real deal (not that you needed me to confirm that, it’s obvious by her incredibly thoughtful and detailed take on every topic). I can’t listen to Clotheshorse in public because at least 5-6 times an...Read full review »

Episode 3 about reselling truly resonated with me. When Amanda spoke about the impact of trolling and mean messages , I could totally relate. So many great points were made on all the subjects covered. There is so much I could say , but the gist of it is: As a long time re-seller, it was very...Read full review »

I never miss an episode and always look forward to the next. When I can’t wait, I am slowly making my way through the older episodes. Amanda is a relatable host and breaks down topics in easy to understand ways. It’s a very well researched show and I feel like I’m meeting with a friend each week.
@a_thrifted_wardrobe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/08/23
Amanda never ceases to amaze me with this show. Every episode is full of thought provoking ideas that stir up change in my life. She clearly is very passionate about the work she does and it shows with the in depth research, variety of guests and her wide array of topics. Please keep up the good...Read full review »

I love how well-researched each episode is, the banter and the little sentimental moments. I always walk away feeling really hopeful. Love it.
JesTodd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/03/22
New favorite podcast! Love that Amanda talks about individual action, consumer action, and policy instead of presenting them in opposition. The anticapitalist ecofeminist analysis of fashion and crafting we all need, and this podcast has brought me so much inspiration! Has a lot of ads, but...Read full review »

Unmissable and engaging podcast about everything concerning slow fashion.
Jimmy Wilding Shufflebutt via Apple Podcasts · Norway · 08/10/22
This podcast is great and full of information, but I ended up stopping listening bc the episodes are so long and feel like they need a lot more editing.

I always wondered how primark sold things so cheaply ( both quality and price). I need to walk into a forever21. Through this podcast I realized I am rarely in clothing stores. I am not a clothes horse. I never think about clothes until I really need something. Now I think about it. So, If you...Read full review »

It’s so easy to just have a pod about fun things we buy at the thrift but this is not it. The host gets into the behind the scenes of secondhand clothing cycle retail and consumer side. Really compelling and great discussions are had here.
Shewhocannotbenamed via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/27/22
I recently found clotheshorse on Instagram and started listening to the podcast. I’m a huge fan of slow fashion and really interested in sustainability. This is an awesome podcast with diverse voices in so many different areas in the fashion, actionable steps, and great content! Please give this...Read full review »

I worked in fast fashion for years, at retail and corporate level and in design rooms. This podcast encapsulates why I no longer do so. The world needs to hear this!

This show is awesome— letting consumers know what actually goes on behind the big (and small!) brands. I really love the transparency and the down to earth delivery. Super excited to learn more as I keep listening. Thanks Amanda!
sillylily2021 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/16/22
I love both of Amanda’s podcasts and have listened since the beginning. I finally was compelled to leave a review though because of her cat’s name being an homage to Janet Yellen. I always say to my baby girl ‘they call you Janet cause you yellin!’ and crack myself up. Love her sense of humor,...Read full review »

I love this show and Amanda is so dedicated and hard working and truly inspiring…..she’s doing the hard work of pointing out the big sustainability issues with the style industry—but she doesn’t stop there! She’s all about *solutions* and gentle encouragement and showcasing incredible people who...Read full review »

First time listener, I was trying to listen to episode 97. The ads at the beginning of this go on for almost 10 minutes. I couldn’t even make it to the actual content because each next ad gave me more anxiety. My anxiety peaked when I realized I was at minute 7 and still no end of ads in sight. I...Read full review »

This podcast is well worth a listen, I’m currently working my way backwards through older episodes from 2020. Amanda’s interviews with Aja Barber and Liz Ricketts introduced me to new voices and even more podcasts, but I think my favourite so far is ep.84. Thank you Amanda for being so honest...Read full review »

Like the title says. The podcast is interesting when it gets started, but you can hear 10-30 mins of sponsorship at the top of the episode.
RunAwayJoinCircus via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/28/21
Recently found this podcast through a friend’s IG post and I am hooked. I am loving to/hating to learn all about the horrors of fast fashion. The interviews are fascinating! I keep sending links to my friends. I’m also appreciating the episodes about “slow gifting.”
LakeRuby via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/06/21
Amanda’s perspective thanks to her history in fashion buying is one I haven’t had a chance to hear much of before, and brings so much more detail and clarity to the processes within the industry that need to be changed for us to have justice for people and the climate. She is such a funny, warm...Read full review »

I first fell in love with Clotheshorse because it was the fashion industry podcast I had been searching for. As the pod evolved, I was blown away with how many things I would learn each episode- not just about clothes, but about consumerism, waste, the dark side of a lot of things 🤣and meet...Read full review »
Meredith4Real via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/12/21
This podcast has really made me take a long hard look at my consumption habits - I did not like what I saw. Amanda and her guests are super knowledgeable and really drive home the human costs of the fashion industry that the average consumer really knows nothing about. Thank you for the work you do!

Host Amanda is wonderful company on your way to learn more about the fashion industry and to make more sustainable and informed choices for yourself, the people who make your garments, the planet and the future. It’s cool to care about fashion. Don’t give your money to a$$holes!
myklebustete_malin via Apple Podcasts · Norway · 09/05/21
Excellent informed talk on the business of clothing: behind the scenes scoops on fast fashion corporations, interesting info on the what goes on with the buying and selling of second hand clothing, and what it’s like running a small business in fashion.

Okay so I’m literally 22 minutes into the most recent episode, which is my first clotheshorse episode ever, and I’ve already become a patreon patron because THIS IS THE PODCAST IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR!!!

Amanda gives you a lot to ponder about the clothing industry in this podcast. Every episode is very well researched and focuses on one aspect of the industry from labor rights to shipping costs to what happens in thrift stores.

If you wear clothes, you need this podcast.

I absolutely love this podcast. As an owner of a small second hand business (@atticvintagepdx) I have learned SOOO MUCH from Amanda.

I love this podcast so much, I am learning so much more about where my clothes come from and what goes into it. Our world is in a terrible state and WE are the ones who can make the difference by changing our buying habits and demanding that companies do better.
