It isn't just small companies that are going organic; Nike, Patagonia, and REI all currently offer some sort of organic clothing lines. For now, sales are very small compared to traditional cotton, but with the organic fiber market growing by nearly 25% last year, you'll probably start seeing these "natural" clothes in more and more places.
