Our Organic Cotton
Products is to connect our supply chains down to the farm to
ensure we understand conditions on the ground and have the
ability to work as partners on the solutions. Thus far, we
have succeeded in doing so for our organic cotton blend
t-shirt program and seek to do the same for our organic
cotton woven materials.

Why We Choose Organic Cotton.
- Organic cotton sustains the health of soils, ecosystems,
and people.
- Its cultivation relies on ecological processes and
cycles, rather than artificial inputs which can have
unintended adverse effects.
|
- Growing conventional cotton uses 11 times more water
than organic cotto
 n.
- Regular cotton is grown with harmful pesticides that
leach into the environment, while organic cotton is made
using beneficial insects.
- Organic cotton contributes less than half as much to the
world?s rising CO2 emissions as regular cotton does.
- Conventional cotton has had a disastrous effect on the
lives of many farmers, while organic cotton is far more
ethical.
- Regular cotton can cause less-than-desirable side
effects to the skin, but organic cotton is hypoallergenic.
