Understanding the fabrics that make our clothing exceptional

Understanding Quality

The difference between ordinary clothing and quality pieces often comes down to materials. We research and test fabrics to ensure they meet our performance and sustainability criteria. This section explores the materials in our collections.

Each fabric has unique characteristics. Understanding these properties helps you make informed decisions and care for your garments properly.

Our Fabrics

Organic Cotton

Our organic cotton comes from farms in California and Texas that use regenerative agriculture practices. Organic cotton relies on natural pest management and crop rotation, resulting in a softer, more durable fiber.

The fabric breathes well, making it suitable for year-round wear. It absorbs moisture efficiently. After multiple washes, organic cotton develops a soft texture.

Grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers
Softer and more durable than conventional cotton
Excellent temperature regulation properties
Biodegradable and environmentally sustainable

Merino Wool

Sourced from New Zealand farms practicing ethical animal husbandry, our merino wool is a fine grade. The fibers measure less than 19 microns in diameter, eliminating the itchiness associated with conventional wool while maintaining insulation properties.

Merino wool naturally regulates temperature. It resists odors through natural antimicrobial properties, reducing the need for frequent washing.

Fine fibers provide softness
Natural temperature regulation
Odor resistance reduces washing frequency
Elastic fibers resist wrinkles

European Linen

We source our linen from Belgian and French flax farms. Flax requires minimal water and no pesticides, making it a sustainable textile crop. The long fibers produce fabric with strength and a distinctive texture.

Linen's hollow fibers create natural airflow, making it suitable for warm weather. The material's natural stiffness relaxes with wear, developing a soft drape. Each wash enhances its character.

Strong natural fiber with durability
Breathability for warm weather
Natural antibacterial and hypoallergenic properties
Minimal environmental impact from cultivation to production

Caring for Your Garments

Proper care extends the life of your clothing. Each garment comes with specific care instructions. Here are general guidelines for our most common materials:

Cotton

Machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry to prevent shrinkage. Iron on medium heat if needed.

Wool

Hand wash in cool water with gentle detergent or dry clean. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat. Store folded to maintain shape.

Linen

Machine wash in lukewarm water. Air dry or tumble dry on low. Iron while slightly damp for best results. Embrace natural wrinkles as part of linen's character.

Bamboo

Machine wash in cold water on gentle cycle. Hang dry or tumble dry on low. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners to maintain fiber integrity.
