    About

    Well Spent features responsibly made products that look good and don’t cost an arm and a leg.

    What does responsibly made mean? It means no sweatshops, a low environmental impact, and nothing disposable. We cover items that are designed and built with thoughtfulness and intention.

    All of the information that appears on this site has been gathered with cooperation from the brands featured. We can only vouch for the information’s veracity insofar as it is what we have been told.

    Pitches

    We’re always on the lookout for new products to feature. That said, we have very strict criteria regarding what makes it on the site. Firstly, every item has to be made in a responsible manner – that means no sweatshops, a low environmental impact, and nothing disposable. Secondly, items must be aesthetically pleasing. And thirdly, items must be reasonably priced for what they are.

    If your product(s) meets that criteria, then send your pitch to pitches@well-spent.com. Please note that due to the high volume of emails we receive, not every pitch will be responded to. Also, if you’re emailing us about a slim wallet you’re funding on Kickstarter, your email will be ignored. The world does not need another Kickstarter-funded slim wallet.

    All pitches made via Well Spent’s Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram will be ignored.

    Advertising

    We apply the same criteria to our advertisers that we do to the products we feature. If your brand or product meets that criteria, and you’re interested in learning more about advertising on Well Spent, send an email to brad@well-spent.com.

    Please note that we do not post sponsored content. The only type of advertising we offer are banner ads.

Inspiration is Where You Find It: Ian Fleming

November 21, 2012 | By Jake Gallagher

Did you know the word “seersucker” originated from the Persian phrase “shir o shekar,” meaning “milk and sugar”? Keep that in mind as you feast your eyes on these Seersucker shirts from Ratio Clothing. Blue or red? Striped or gingham? English spread or button down collar?

Ratio Clothing New Fabrics

June 4, 2012 | By Brad Bennett

Photos by Nathan Michael. When I first came across the Ratio Clothing website, it seemed too good to be true. A made in USA custom shirt for under $100? How was such a thing possible? So, when the label offered to send me one of their shirts for review, I was happy to accept, if…
