Hemp is one of the oldest and most ecologically friendly fabrics in the world. Hemp fabric has been found in tombs that date back to 8,000 BC. Known for durability and strength it was utilized by Levi Strauss in the very first jeans that they ever made. As organic clothing, hemp provides superior durability, warmth and a natural softness making it an excellent choice for both comfort, wear and tear.
Hemp comes from the plant Cannabis sativa and it often gets mistakenly labeled as a drug like it's close cousin marijuana, which it is not. In fact until the middle of the 20th century hemp was one of the most valuable production crops in the world.
How does hemp compare with cotton? The hemp plant produces a fabric that is much stronger and more versatile than other fabrics including cotton. Hemp clothing actually lasts 3-4 times longer than cotton so in the long run it is much more cost effective. It also provides better insulation to keep you cool in the heat and warm when it is cold out. Hemp clothing is highly regarded for its UV protection as well.
Not only is hemp clothing organic and eco friendly, it's also comfortable to wear as well. At Effort's we have worked for years to develop the ideal blends of hemp and cotton to provide the very best in comfort, style and durability. We have a wide selection of hemp clothing for men and women at very reasonable prices and we can ship to anywhere in North America.
