The benefits of linen

When it comes to lower-impact materials, linen is one of the oldest and most-loved. It’s a plant-based fibre we’ve been growing for millennia, making lightweight, breathable clothes that last and last. There are many pros to linen, especially when incorporated into garments made by responsible brands.

When worn, linen withstands high temperatures, wicking away sweat without holding bacteria. For that reason, linen is often thought of as a summer fabric, but it’s actually wearable all year round. Linen ages like a fine wine, and becomes more soft and pliable the more it is washed over the years. And if left untreated, it can technically biodegrade at the end of its life, making it a much better option for the planet in the long run than most other fabrics.
