Everyday linen
Hypoallergenic and processed without heavy chemicals. Just like the sturdy flax plant that requires minimal pesticides, linen fabric is exceptionally strong and naturally moth resistant. It turns softer the more you wash it, resulting in even more comfort over time.
After harvest, flax stalks are allowed to dry in open air for several weeks before they undergo threshing. Fabrics made from these fibers are typically quite strong and durable. The flax plant requires little water, especially when compared to cotton. It can thrive in harsh conditions and is a fast growing plant. When untreated or naturally dyed, linen fabric is biodegradable and extremely durable.
Linen is made from a natural source: the flax plant. The production process is simple. Flax is an annual plant, meaning it only lives for one growing season. From seed planting, it is ready to be harvested in about one hundred days and requires minimal irrigation.
According to the European Confederation of Linen and Hemp, “Across its lifecycle, a linen shirt uses 6.4 litres of water” compared to 2,700 litres for a cotton shirt.
Breathable and thermoregulatory: Linen fabric is actually perfect all year round! It can withstand high temperatures, absorb moisture without gathering bacteria, and, acting as an insulator, keep you warm in winter and cool in summer.
