Roughly 10% of carbon emissions come from the apparel industry. But there is a shift already happening: clothing made from natural fibers. These provide an eco-friendlier alternative without compromising on style or comfort.
Coldlander’s entire catalogue prioritizes natural fibers or fibers that are at least biodegradable and free from polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
Natural fiber clothing, like organic cotton, linen, and Merino wool, offers breathability and durability, making them perfect for everyday wear. When you wash your clothes (no matter what they’re made of), micro-fibers come off in the wash, go through the wastewater and end up in the ecosystem. Unlike synthetic microfibers that can take centuries to decompose (from polyester, e.g.), natural fibers return to the earth much more quickly, reducing your fashion carbon footprint.
But the benefits go beyond environmental impact. Clothing made from natural fibers tends to be softer and more comfortable, creating a breathable and skin-friendly wardrobe staple. Choosing natural fibers isn't just a fashion statement; it's a lifestyle choice that aligns with a more mindful and conscious way of living.
Natural fiber clothing doesn’t have to be limited to graphic T-shirts and underwear. Coldlander specifically curates a collection of versatile and classic modern clothing that not only reduces your carbon footprint but gives you more options with each piece.
Whether you’re shopping for cotton summer tops, wool overcoats for women or hiking shorts for men, join us in embracing the beauty and benefits of natural fibers—because looking good should never come at the cost of our planet.
