Would be great if it was possible to filter based on the clothes origin. I believe this could appeal to many users, for instance, r/AvoidChineseProducts (https://old.reddit.com/r/avoidchineseproducts/) has been growing a lot lately.

I of course understand that it would be difficult and time consuming to collect this information, however, India recently forced companies, including Amazon, to display country of origin, so might be able to scrape the information from their sites.

Thats a fantastic idea, and yes my goal is to be as descriptive as possible with every item, including country of origin, it just amounts to me putting in the work to do research on every item, Im willing to do it and I hope it can be useful to more users soon!
