In summer garment washed hemp plays an important role: its appeal is casual and
relaxed. Its feel soft and precious, the colours are lively and light as a summer 's breeze.
Organic cotton hemp mixes have turned out to be very successful especially for summer
polo shirt, men's shirt and trousers.
The stem of the hemp plant grows up to 5m hight and is filled with fine, robust fibres
which can be worked into rope and textiles, Hemp fibric is very similar to linen. It creases
a little and is very easy on the skin. Exspecially in summer, its high absorbency makes it
pleasant to wear, while the fabric never feels damp. Hemp fabric is firm, tear-resistant
and odor and dirt repellent. With all of these properties it remains permeable, cool and
keeps its shape. Due to its THC content (tetra hydro cannabinol) the hemp plant has a
natrual defense against pests and is easy to grow ecologically. The fibres are less
sensitive than other natural fibres to bacteria, fungus and moths.
We like combining hemp with cotton for jersey fabrics. The cotton keeps the shape better
and the hemp becomes softer. As far as colours go, jersey has a light, textured blended
effects. We work with very high quality jersey shirts and pullover. Hemp textiles are easy
to care for and they can be machine-washed.
Hemp is a characteristic feature of our collections, especially in summer, The
product range includes suits, skirts and dresses, blouses and tops, caps and bags.
Care instructions:
We commend washing coloured fabric at 40C, Hemp can be pressed with a
hot iron, preferably when the fabric is still slightly damp. Tumble-drying is not recommended as it makes ironing more difficult.
