It took Andy 10 months and cost about $4,000 to make a suit entirely from scratch. How does this compare to the evolution of the textile industry? Actually, pretty well. Not incredibly long ago, clothing was still very much made by hand and sourced from sheep. Clothes were often hand made and only the wealthiest could afford a tailored suit…but the invention of new technology, new sources of raw material, and the acceptance of mass produced clothing has made clothing less expensive than ever before.

|| ABOUT ||
Today, getting what you need is as easy as a trip to the store. From food to clothing, energy, medicine, and so much more, Andy George will discover what it takes to make everything from scratch. His mission is to understand the complex processes of manufacturing that is often taken for granted and do it all himself. Each week he’s traveling the world to bypass the modern supply chain in order to harvest raw materials straight from the source. Along the way, he’s answering the questions you never thought to ask.
