Where does all the unused and unbought clothes go?

I wonder! Clothes are everywhere. If I enter malls and other clothes stores I cannot think they will all be purchased. Just imagine world wide the tons of clothings that are unsold. And the industries never stop to produce new ones. So if they are not bought and used where all these clothes go because I have never heard of condemned clothings that were burnt, of course some are given as relief goods but I think this is not still enought to catch up with the number of clothes being made every year.

Discount locations of the store and then after that they are either thrwon away or maybe given to charity.

I think they're still on the go for sale. Some may be distribute to a mere store; say a surplus shop. OR maybe donated to some charitable institutions.
