  • Hope it doesn't feel like I'm shooting you down - just curious - when other manufacturer's are manufacturing using recycled cotton, for example, is there any reason you chose to use presumably virgin cotton given sustainability is the name of the game here?

    Good luck.

  • My time at Raeburn taught me recycled cotton doesn’t last as long. I’m guessing that’s why.
    Also organic cotton uses five times as less water to produce.

  • Yeah, I did some further reading and Patagonia have to combine it with (recycled) polyester to increase the length of the fibers. Five times less water than non-organic cotton, but still more water than recycled cotton/recycled poly, presumably?
