Hemp

Hemp fiber comes from the stalk of the Cannabis sativa plant. It is one of the fastest-growing plants on earth and produces a strong, breathable fabric that improves with washing.

Where it comes from

Hemp grows in temperate climates across Europe, China, and North America. It grows quickly, requires minimal pesticides, and improves soil health.

Properties

Durable
Hemp is one of the strongest natural fibers available — stronger than cotton and resistant to UV degradation.
Breathable
Hemp fabric is porous and breathes well, performing similarly to linen in warm conditions.
Improves with washing
Hemp softens over time while retaining its structural strength.
Low environmental footprint
Hemp grows quickly without heavy pesticide use and can improve soil health through phytoremediation.

Microplastics

Hemp is a natural plant fiber. It does not shed synthetic microplastics and biodegrades at end of life.
