That’s the phrasing of someone who loves their shoppies. The main benefit is using, honing and promoting a skill to make quality clothes for yourself and your loved ones that will be significantly removed from the chain of dumb but vicious exploitation.

Yeah, it may not be completely exploitation free, but it’s a step in the right direction for the people with time and skills.

That’s a very narrow segment of people though, and even for those people I would argue it’s a better use of time to just…buy fewer clothes in the first place. This sounds like a bourgeois solution for people with a sewing machine and several hours free to make clothes for themselves.
