For starters, take a look at our Customer Comments section to get an idea of how our customers feel about hemp clothing in general.
Hemp clothing is remarkably comfortable..it's always love at first try-on. if you've never worn anything hemp,and you doubt the claims start with something basic like a Tee shirt. It's not uncommon for us to ship a Tee and 3 days later there's a re-order for more...it often snowballs from there.
Qualities of hemp:
Hemp Fiber: Hollow, so in Winter, it acts like a thermal. In Summer, it's cooler than cotton by about 5 degrees.
Anti-microbial: You can wear a hemp shirt or top for many days with no "aroma". Hemp kills bacterial, staff and fungus, so even if you don't wear deodorant, you can continue to wear your hem garment. Hemp clothes are truly "travel perfect" clothing. You simply don't need to pack as much.. According to the result of the inspection by China Shandong Sanitation and Antiepidemic Station, the hemp cloth could kill 99.4% of trichophyton and gympsum, 92.6% candidaalbiecan, 99.8% of aspergillus etc.
Strong: Hemp is cellulose rich, so it's strong. In fact 5-20 stronger than cotton. Cotton is a flower and doesn't contain very much cellulose.
Organic. Hemp does not require herbicides or pesticides to grow. 40-50% of all the applied pesticides in the world are used on cotton. Think of the contamination to water aquafers. I contend that Dow, Monsanto and the like will be major lobbies against the legalization of industrial hemp, at least until they discover ways to profit from hemp.
Comfortable: Comfortable like you can't imagine. Never itchy or scratchy, it's not just for hippies anymore, and forget the burlap rap, this stuff is like nothing you've ever imagined. Always love at first try-on. Like nothing you've ever worn, tops or bottoms. Starting out the morning wearing hemp clothing is as good as sunshine and your morning coffee.
Feed the Planet: Hemp seed contains between 25-30% protean, EFA's (Essential Fatty Acids...the body does not manufacture EFA's), and high in Omega 3's (as in fish oil).
We could be feeding starving nations with foods derived from the hemp seed...in a matter of months (given that they could be processed in under developed countries with the proper equipment to de-hull, etc.)
Hemp protean powders, hemp oil, and the hemp seeds will turn starving countries around. We need to address this seriously and remove the political cowardess that would negate efforts to promote hemp as a vital, universal food.
