Question 5

What is the difference between raw Japanese denim and regular denim?

Accepted Answer

Raw Japanese denim is denim fabric that has not undergone any pre-washing or distressing treatments and is often made from high-quality cotton grown and woven in Japan. The fabric is typically thicker and has a more substantial feel than regular denim, and is often dyed with natural indigo to create a deep, rich blue color. Because the fabric has not been pre-washed or treated, it will fade and develop unique character over time with wear and wash, resulting in a garment that is truly one-of-a-kind.
Regular denim, on the other hand, is typically pre-washed or treated with various chemical and mechanical processes to create a specific look or texture, such as fading or distressing. The cotton used in regular denim can come from a variety of countries and may be of varying quality, resulting in a wider range of fabrics and finishes. While regular denim can also develop character over time, it may not have the same depth of color or texture as raw Japanese denim.

Question 6

What is the difference between super heavy organic cotton and regular cotton?

Accepted Answer

Super heavy organic cotton is a type of cotton fabric that is made from certified organic cotton fibers and is typically much thicker and heavier than regular cotton. This thickness and weight is achieved through the use of longer and stronger cotton fibers, resulting in a more durable and long-lasting fabric. Additionally, organic cotton is grown using environmentally friendly farming practices that avoid the use of harmful chemicals and pesticides, making it a more sustainable and ethical choice.
Regular cotton, on the other hand, is typically made from conventionally grown cotton fibers and may not be as thick or heavy as super heavy organic cotton. Conventional cotton farming practices often rely on the use of chemicals and pesticides that can be harmful to both the environment and the people involved in production. Additionally, regular cotton may not be as durable or long-lasting as super heavy organic cotton due to the use of shorter and weaker cotton fibers.

Question 7

What are the benefits of choosing super heavy organic cotton?

Accepted Answer

Super heavy organic cotton is a more sustainable and ethical choice for clothing and textiles due to its use of environmentally friendly farming practices and durable, long-lasting fabric. Choosing organic cotton also supports farmers who are committed to sustainable agriculture, and reduces the use of harmful chemicals and pesticides in the production process. Additionally, the thick and heavy nature of super heavy organic cotton makes it ideal for creating high-quality, long-lasting garments that will stand up to wear and washing over time.

Question 8

Is super heavy organic cotton more expensive than regular cotton?

Accepted Answer

Super heavy organic cotton may be more expensive than regular cotton due to the higher cost of organic farming practices and the use of longer and stronger cotton fibers. However, the higher cost is often reflective of the superior quality and durability of the fabric, making it a worthwhile investment for those seeking long-lasting and sustainable clothing and textiles. Additionally, some consumers may be willing to pay a premium for organic cotton due to its environmental and ethical benefits.

Question 9

Does importing materials from other countries affect your commitment to sustainability and ethical practices?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. We are committed to using only materials that meet our standards for sustainability and ethical practices, regardless of their country of origin. We work closely with our suppliers to ensure that they meet our requirements for fair labor practices, environmental responsibility, and ethical sourcing. We believe that by sourcing the best materials available from around the world, we can create clothing that is both beautiful and sustainable.

How do I plant the seeds from the hangtag?

Accepted Answer

Question 12

What are the benefits of using plantable seed paper for hangtags?

Accepted Answer

Using plantable seed paper for hangtags is an eco-friendly and sustainable alternative to traditional paper hangtags. It not only reduces waste, but also encourages customers to engage in sustainable practices by planting the seeds and growing their own plants. This promotes a connection with nature and a deeper appreciation for the environment. Additionally, our seed paper is made from recycled and biodegradable materials, making it a more sustainable choice overall.

Question 13

What types of seeds are embedded in your plantable seed paper hangtags?

Accepted Answer

Our plantable seed paper hangtags are embedded with a variety of non-invasive seeds such as wildflowers or herbs. We carefully choose seeds that are easy to grow and will thrive in a variety of environments. We also strive to choose seeds that are native to the regions where our clothing is sold, in order to promote local ecosystems and support regional biodiversity.
