[Themaintainers] Right to repair and textiles — pointers on existing work?

[Kobiljski Aleksandra]

Dear Maintainers, 




I'm currently working on a piece examining how the EU's 2024 Right to Repair Directive excluded textiles from its scope, and I'm trying to map the wider landscape of right-to-repair scholarship and advocacy before finishing the argument. 




I'm far less familiar with the US side of this movement and its history but my impression so far is that textile and garments repair did not loom large; the movement has centered largely on tractors (the John Deere fight) and electronics (Apple, and related FTC action). 




If I'm missing relevant work - where right to repair has intersected with textiles specifically - I would very much appreciate pointers. 




Many thanks in advance, 
Aleksandra Kobiljski
