What is hemp fabric?
Made from the fibres of the hemp plant's stalk, hemp fabric is a textile material. The long fibre strands are taken and separated from the bark by retting. Then, it is spun together to produce a long thread woven into a fabric.
Hemp requires minimal water and pesticides to grow, making it an environmentally friendly and sustainable choice for clothing and other textiles.
Similar in texture to linen and jute, it resembles linen material.
Benefits of wearing hemp clothes
The biggest appeal to hemp clothes? Where do we start?
-
It is eco-friendly
One of the most attractive qualities is that hemp clothing is eco-friendly. Its source, hemp plants, don’t take a lot of space to grow when compared to cotton. Not to mention, hemp is organically biodegradable, unlike other non-naturally biodegradable items that can spend long periods in landfill.
-
It is durable
Hemp fabric is known for being highly durable. It’s not susceptible to shrinking and is also quite resistant to pilling. Since hemp fibres are spun together in long threads, it has a very pleasant soft fabric texture. While your typical cotton shirt can last up to a decade with proper care, hemp clothes can last at least double or triple that.
-
It is odour resistant
Perfect for those who tend to sweat, hemp clothing is odour-resistant. Unlike cotton, hemp has natural moisture-wicking properties. It also has antibacterial qualities, making it resistant to mould.
-
It is soft on the skin
Hemp material is noticeably gentle, allowing it to be soft on the skin. This is because of the fineness of the hemp fibres. Furthermore, it is breathable and insulating, helping preserve accurate body temperature and promoting comfort.
-
It is hypoallergenic
In addition to being soft on the skin, hemp material is also hypoallergenic. This means it is ideal for people with sensitive skin. Hemp clothing won’t irritate the skin; it has antibacterial and antifungal properties that can kill bacteria that come into contact with it.
