Robots can build cars and do surgery. But making clothes is very hard for robots. Most clothes today are made by hand in Asia.
A company called CreateMe has a new idea. Their robots use glue instead of sewing. They glue pieces of cloth together to make underwear and t-shirts. This is easier for robots to do.
If robots make clothes, factories could move back to the US and Europe. This would help the environment. But many workers in Asia might lose their jobs.
