Fabric Breathability Sustainability Skin-friendliness
Polyester ❌ Poor ❌ Plastic-based ❌ Traps heat
Cotton ✅ Good ⚠️ High water use ✅ Soft
Linen ✅ Excellent ✅ Sustainable ✅ Cool feel
Hemp ✅ Excellent ✅✅ Eco superstar ✅✅ Gets softer over time

 

Why Hemp Wins:
It’s naturally thermoregulating—keeps you cool in the heat and warm in chill. Plus, it’s antimicrobial, meaning less sweat odor. Win-win.
