Material
70% Organic Cotton 14% TENCEL™ Lyocell 14% Polyester 2% Elastane
This soft, high stretch denim is made to last. Like traditional denim, the main fibre used is cotton; which offers a comfortable, breathable finish to the fabric. This denim also incorporates EME polyester which offers high stretch, good retention and durability.
Certified organic cotton is grown without the use of synthetic fertilizers or hazardous pesticides, which protects biodiversity and waterways and builds and maintains soil fertility. The organic cotton for this fabric was sourced from Turkey.
TENCEL™ Lyocell fibres are derived from wood sourced from sustainably managed forests. TENCEL™ Lyocell fibres have gained a commendable reputation for their environmentally responsible, closed loop production process, which transforms wood pulp into cellulosic fibres with high resource efficiency and low environmental impact. This solvent-spinning process recycles process water and reuses the solvent at a recovery rate of more than 99%. TENCEL™ is a trademark of Lenzing AG.
