Size Guide

Fabric

35% Recycled Polyester, 60% Polyester, 5% Elastane.

This fabric has good hold and drape. It maintains it's stretch wash after wash. You won't need to iron or steam these garments as the fabric is hardy in its' resistance to wrinkling. It is fast drying and we would therefore recommend hanging to dry rather than using machines.

This fabric contains recycled polyester. We think 35% recycled is a good start but no where near good enough. We are working to secure fully recycled fabric options.

Virgin polyester is made from non-renewable resources. We are limiting our use of virgin polyester and will eventually swap this out for a fully recycled alternative. While we have stock we are utilising this fabric on garments that will have a useful life - that is garments that will be worn often and for a long time. We hope this will create a benefit from this fabric that already exists.

This fabric is highly durable, stretchy and comfortable to wear. The fabric is double layered throughout the body and single layered on the sleeves to avoid any restrictiveness at the arms.
