The «Silk Of South America»

Pima Baumwolle

For over 10 years, we have been using one of the best quality cotton yarns - Pima cotton - for our most successful product, our calf socks. This type of cotton, which is particularly popular in Peru, has extraordinarily long fibres.

At the same time, the fibres feel silky, which is why Pima cotton is known as the «silk of South America» As well as these properties, which are extremely important when it comes to processing, the plant itself is particularly fungus-resistant. This means fewer pesticides are required, which is good for the environment.

Quality you can feel

We use top quality Pima cotton - and quality comes at a price - in order to provide a top quality product. On the finished item, the long cotton fibres mean significantly reduced fraying or peeling. The silky properties of the cotton make the garment extremely comfortable to wear.

We have had excellent experience from our calf socks made of Pima cotton, and this is reason enough for us to offer other products in the same high quality Pima cotton. Which is why we are now making our entire underwear range and these t-shirts from the «silk of South America» too.
