It really depends.

Search online if you are willing to pay for shipping and handling.

Otherwise you just have to keep an eye out. In some 'non-capitalized' stores they may carry hemp material items. I know "Bath and Body Works" has just opened a new line of 'hemp products', however that is probably not what you are looking for.

Finding 'hemp' clothing is not impossible, however it is just not located everywhere. Large cities, that may have a large variety of people and shopping, would most likely carry some form of hemp product. It just really takes time to keep your eye out. Check tags, and ask store clerks from the get-go if they carry any hemp products.

My best advice would be to do a search online though.

I would say that it does. There are many ethical clothing companies that produce using hemp.

Allow there can be similar oppression, if you can't find non-abbusive cotton clothes, then hemp can be an alternative.

Hemp is also an undersused crop, it is versatile, and was originally banned because of competition with the cotton industries...free trade my ass...anyway you can try searching or something, but I don't think there are any major stores specialissing in hemp. The only times I have seen it is in small local stores so I couldn't give much advice. Although I have seen it on sale readily at festivals such as Glastonbury.

I wear a shit load of hemp jewelry. When you know how to, you should make your own stuff.
