How To Care For Sustainable Fabrics

Don't be afraid of sustainable fabrics!

"Sustainable fabrics feel great and are terrific to wear and they also wash like a dream. Here are some tips on caring for sustainable fabrics!"

Viscose From Bamboo

Viscose from bamboo is a really hearty fabric, it has a silky feel but you can wash and dry it like cotton. It even lasts better than cotton. We recommend on our viscose from bamboo garments that you cold wash on regular or delicate and hang dry (uses less power). If you are in a time crunch you can always throw it in the dryer though with no worries!

Soy

Soy is a bit more delicate than viscose from bamboo. We recommend a cold water wash and tumble dry (again hang dry to save power and money). Spot treat any stains as needed, but make sure you test your stain treatment on an area that won't show if the color gets bleached. Viscose from bamboo, organic cotton and soy all can be ironed freely.

Organic Cotton

Organic Cotton, is....well...Cotton. You can wash, dry and iron like you would with normal cotton. Cotton always shows wear and tear if you apply a lot of heat to it, so go easy on hot dryers.

Hemp

Hemp is the heartiest fabric of them all. Hemp actually looks and feels better the more you wash and dry it! It softens up over time like your favorite jeans. So do what ever you want to it. Wash, dry, hang dry and press, whatever suits your fancy.
