Fabric Information

		Cotton: Cotton is a natural fiber derived from the cotton plant. Cotton is noted for its versatility, its appearance, its performance, and its natural comfort. Pima cotton (also known as Egyptian, Sea Island, and extra long staple cotton), has unusually long, silky fibers, and is prized for its smooth, lustrous appearance and soft silky hand. Read more
		Rayon: Rayon was the first manufactured fiber. Unlike most man-made fibers, rayon is not synthetic. It is made from wood pulp, a naturally occurring, cellulose based raw material. As a result, rayon's properties are more similar to those of natural cellulosic fibers, such as cotton and linen, than those of synthetic fibers such as polyester and nylon. Read more
		Linen: Linen fabric is made from the fibers of the flax plant. Highly absorbant and a good conductor of heat, linen fabric feels cool to the touch. Linen is the strongest of the vegetable fibers, with 2 to 3 times the strength of cotton. It is smooth, making the finished fabric lint free, and gets softer the more it is washed. Read more
		Tencel: Tencel® (a trademarked brand name for lyocell) is a natural cellulosic fiber, creating a fabric with excellent moisture absorption. In addition, lyocell has an exceptionally soft hand, and is found to be particularly agreeable to those with skin sensitivities. Lyocell was introduced to consumers in 1991. Lyocell is produced from wood pulp called cellulose. Read more
		SeaCell: Seacell® is a fabric made out of lyocell and seaweed. The theory is that your skin will absorb nutrients from the seaweed, which is mineral and vitamin rich.  A cellulose-based fiber is manufactured using the so-called lyocell process. This lyocell fiber then serves as the "functioning substrate" for the seaweed. Read more
