RECYCLED POLYESTER
Man-made fibre.
Polyester has strong fibres giving a long-lasting garment. It’s more resistant
to shrinking and wrinkles and is quick drying. Dyes quickly and produces
striking colours. We love recycled polyester because it reclaims plastic waste.
WOOL
Made by spinning from Sheep wool.
Wool is wrinkle-resistant, springs back quickly after stretching & repels
moisture. It’s also recyclable. It keeps you at a comfortable temperature
through all seasons & feels nice to wear. It’s anti-static and is
biodegradable.
LINEN
Made from the stems
of the flax plant.
Linen is 2-3 times stronger than Cotton & is anti-cling & anti-static.
It billows away from the body to dry out any moisture. Very breathable &
cool to wear. Considered to be one of the strongest of all-natural fibres.
RAYON & VISCOSE
Made using wood pulp, this
natural raw material is turned into fibre using a chemical process.
Rayon & viscose drape beautifully & are breathable. They are soft with
a silk-like feel & dye easily to produce beautiful, vivid colours.
COTTON
Raw cotton is spun into
thread & then woven to make fabric.
Cotton is natural and
breathable. It is hypoallergenic, soft and comfortable to wear and is
biodegradable.
MERINO
Merino wool is a
natural fibre grown year-round by Merino sheep.
It keeps you at a comfortable temperature through all seasons
& feels nice to wear. It’s anti-static and is biodegradable. We use RWS certified 100% merino which is made in Australia using New Zealand and Australian wool. They ensure ethical and sustainable practices are used for more information go here. We were also lucky enough to get some of the last
merino fabrics knitted right here in NZ, which is being used in a range of
garments.
