100% Upcycled, Recycled Natural fibres
This third generation, family owned mill is reimagining the way denim is produced, using a circular economy model to maximize a material"s useful life, repurposing it into something new instead of sending it to a landfill. This mill turns post-industrial waste from local garment factories back into fibre, then upcycles the fibre into unique, fully biodegradable denim and twill. The entire process is chemical-free, dye-free, and synthetic fibre-free, while minimizing water and energy consumption. Revolutionary!
Upcycled Lightweight Denim Shirting - Light Blue
A goes with everything classic chambray shirting made entirely of cotton fibres recovered from garment industry waste? Sign us up! This upcycled fabric has been skillfully rewoven into a classic chambray weave of blue warp and white weft threads with tiny speckles throughout - we love the character and texture of this fabric. At 5 oz, this lightweight cotton shirting has a crisp hand and drape that will soften considerably with washing, and is ideal for tops, shirts, dresses, jumpsuits, and breezy trousers. Opaque, it does not require a lining.
Always pretreat fabric before sewing to remove chemical sizing from the manufacturing process. Pre-washing also gives you a better sense of the true drape and handfeel of a fabric. We recommend washing and drying fabric in the same way you intend to wash your finished garment. Be sure to separate brights and colours, as some dyes and prints may run the first few times you wash them.
It’s important to wash and dry denim to remove any potential shrinkage down the road. Machine wash in warm water and tumble dry on medium. To preserve the intensity of dye and recovery in stretch denim, it’s best to wash your finished jeans in cool water and hang to dry. Use a hot iron when pressing.
