Our Authenticity Statement
Downtowngal purchases all items from major retail establishments
as well as from direct manufacturer relationships. When possible, all merchandise contains
original retail packaging, labels and in some cases the retail tag. We
are hyper-aware that our industry is polluted with so-called bargain designer
e-tailers that sell fake merchandise under the "authentic" claim. The sad
truth is that most of these e-tailers fake products are manufactured
using child labor---mostly in third world countries.
Downtowngal strongly admonishes this practice and we are currently donating
portions of our profits (for specific product categories) to the International Initiative To End Child
Labor. We hope our efforts and the efforts of others will start to offset
the difficulties these children and their families face--just to meet
the basic necessities of life.
If you would like more information regarding the International Initiative To End Child Labor and their cause, please visit their website and see the
valuable work they do.
