Organic Cotton
Just like with your food, organic is where it’s at for fabrics, too. Organic cotton means that no pesticides, insecticides, genetically modified crops, or mechanised farming practices (A.K.A. all the stuff that shouldn’t belong in making our clothes anyway) were used to grow the cotton. Just how it should be.
Zero Pesticides
Organic cotton also uses 91% less water than traditional cotton to be grown, reduces levels of water pollution by 98% as compared to conventional cotton, and creates 46% fewer greenhouse gas emissions. It’s kind of a big deal.
Water Efficient
Suit Yourself
Rules are meant to be broken. Like the rule that a suit has to be worn with a dress shirt and tie. Going for our tee instead still reads ‘I’m put together,’ but it’s not overly formal.
Off-Duty Edit
Sometimes you just want to put on something comfortable without sacrificing your style. Pairing our tee with joggers and sneakers creates the laidback look you’re looking for that works for running errands and heading to the skate park.
Let's Hang
Jeans and a tee is a classic combo. But classic doesn’t have to mean boring. Add a button down or flannel and sneakers and you’re ready to step out for a Saturday afternoon beer at your local brewery.
