Everyday quality
This fabric does the job for daily wear. Not premium, not bad — it's the middle of the road. At least it's easy to care for.
Cotton biodegrades in 1-5 months. When you're done with this, it returns to the earth — not the ocean.
Recycled synthetic reduces virgin plastic use, but still sheds microfibers. Better than new plastic, but natural is best.
