In 2008, San Francisco Magazine listed Eco Citizen as the "best green threads" in the city. The San Francisco Chronicle, Daily Candy, Greenopia, and many other publications also talk up the shop:

• Chic, stylish clothing made with sustainable materials is a win-win situation, and one that is hard to find. However, Eco Citizen Boutique off Union Street in San Francisco contains this winning combination – every article of clothing and accessory has minimal impact on the environment yet is extremely stylish. – Sarah Brinker, Greenopia
• Do your part and send offenders straight to Eco Citizen, a new shop in Russian Hill devoted to earth-loving, fair trade attire that’s actually chic. – Daily Candy
