Organic cotton comes from seeds that have not been genetically modified (non-GMO) and is grown without the use of chemical pesticides or fertilisers. Organic cotton farming uses natural me thods, such as crop rotation, which benefit not only the soil, fauna and the environment, but create biodi versity and promote good health and quality of life for farmers and their communities.
Cultivating organic cotton ensures that no chemical insecticides, fertilisers or pesticides flow into the soil or into adjoining rivers, lakes or seas. This also means that the water used for organic farming is not considered as lost water, as it can be reused again and can return to the soil and other water sources without causing any harm. The overall positive effect on water, animals and biodiversity means that the well-being and livelihood of cotton farmers and their communities are respected and protected.
Benefits of organic cotton include: 26% less potential for soil erosion, 46% less impact on global warming, 70% less acidification of land and water, and 91% less surface and groundwater use.
Our cotton clothes may shrink slightly in the wash. Ensure you follow the care instructions on the product label. See our size guide for information about fit.
100% cotton clothes: wash at 30°C. Do not tumble dry. Ironed at 110°C or less. Do not bleach. Do not dry clean. Do not iron artwork, print, or embroidery.
