Clothing comfort
This poplin from organic cotton is breathable and feels soft. Cotton is relatively flexible, it is very comfortable, feels soft on the skin and can absorb up to 20% of water without feeling wet. Organic cotton fabrics are produced eco-friendly and are also skin-friendly. This includes the dyeing of this yellow fabric, the GOTS standard forbids dyes that are known to be allergene.

Origin of the material
The organic cotton was grown in the Turkish districts near the Aegean Sea (so called Aegean cotton). Turkey has a large cotton industry and the cotton was spun and knitted there in GOTS-certified factories, thus limiting the carbon footprint.
