What We Love:

Local "seed-to-garment" approach significantly reduces carbon footprint.

Hand-harvested to preserve fiber integrity and prevent breakage.

Pima requires 50% less water than conventional cotton; naturally drought tolerant.

Naturally hypoallergenic, breathable, and soft — ideal for long-term wear.

Resistant to pilling, unlike many synthetic or short-staple cottons.

Fabric scraps from cutting are bundled and re-purposed into mops, rags, and mattress fillers, ensuring a circular supply chain.

Provides a premium hand-feel with durability suited for elevated everyday essentials.

What We Don't Love:

Not certified organic — farming may involve the use of synthetic fertilizers or pesticides.

Although improved practices are often used, suppliers are not officially certified regenerative.
