49% Cotton, 38% Tencel

Everyday quality

This fabric does the job for daily wear. Not premium, not bad — it's the middle of the road. Follow care instructions carefully to extend its life.

🌱

Cotton biodegrades in 1-5 months. When you're done with this, it returns to the earth — not the ocean.

💧

Cotton absorbs moisture but doesn't wick it. Great for a hot day, terrible for hiking — you'll stay wet.
