· COTTON TWILL ·
Cotton twill is a twill weave fabric, which forms very fine diagonal stripes like on jeans. It is a fabric that is often used in workwear thanks to its good hold and comfort.
We chose a twill with a little elastane to guarantee optimal comfort.
ORIGIN COTTON TWILL
Historically, twill was a silk fabric, both soft and strong. Today, the term "twill" refers to a particular type of weave and not to the material of the fabric. This weaving produces fabrics that are always flexible and relatively light compared to the classic twill range. Our cotton twill is manufactured and then made in Portugal.
· COTTON CANVAS ·
We use a special cotton canvas made from organic and recycled cotton. It is woven in one of the oldest French factories. Today, it is managed by the sixth generation of the family who founded it in 1840 in the Vosges.
This region of France is traditionally renowned for its expertise in fabric weaving.
ORIGIN OF COTTON CANVAS
Canvas was originally made from linen, hemp or nettle fibers. Nowadays, cotton canvas has largely replaced nettle or linen canvas, and is used for craft purposes and clothing.
· SEERSUCKER ·
Seersucker is a lightweight, breathable fabric characterized by its distinctive embossed effect created by a unique weaving process.
Made of cotton, the texture of this fabric allows for better air circulation, an ideal ally for summer. It requires very little ironing, which adds to its practicality.
SEERSUCKER ORIGIN
Originally used in India, seersucker is now prized for its ability to draw heat away from the body, making it a popular choice for summer clothing.
