Environmentally sustainable development is gradually penetrating global society including commercial and non-commercial organizations, catalyzed by the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which were set forth in 2015 (UNDP, 2022). Negative environmental outcomes, such as water pollution, air pollution, microplastic pollution, resource wastes, drive the needs of environmentally sustainable development of textile and apparel (T&A) industry. The resource-intensive T&A industry faces numerous challenges for transitioning into an ecologically friendly market, which involves all stakeholders along the supply chain, from producers to final consumers. However, the consumer, as a critical driver of sustainability in the industry, is not well understood in terms of their environmental understanding, attitudes and behaviors. Moreover, the influence of domain-specific environmental knowledge has been underestimated or ignored outright in previous research. On the contrary, existing research demonstrate that the personal responsibility, beliefs and locus of control influence individuals' intentions or behaviors. This study adapted the Environmentally Responsible Behavior (ERB) model to evaluate consumers' sustainable consumption intention for T&A products.There are two main goals of this research. Firstly, this research investigated the influence of consumers' domain-specific environmental knowledge (subjective and objective) on sustainable consumption intention for T&A products. Secondly, this research examined the influence of three types of personality traits (i.e., personal responsibility, general environmental beliefs-eco-centric and anthropocentric, and environmental locus of control-internal and external, on consumers' sustainable consumption intention for T&A products. An online survey was conducted to collect consumers' knowledge, personality traits, and sustainable consumption intention data. A two-stage Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to evaluate the measurement model, analyze final structural model and test hypotheses.The findings suggested that subjective environmental knowledge of T&A industry, personal environmental responsibility and eco-centric environmental beliefs significantly influence consumers' sustainable consumption intention for T&A products. This research not only provides contributions to the existing literature on sustainable consumption behavior of T&A industry, but also provides T&A brands and retailers with insight into consumers' sustainable consumption. Further the findings suggest implications for educators, policy makers and additional stakeholders in pursuit of a more sustainable T&A industry.
