COOLING
The smooth, waxy flax fiber traps very little air and therefore makes for a particularly cool, breathable and dirt-repellent fabric. Linen is also hypoallergenic and dries quickly. The ideal material for your summer cap!
ANTIBACTERIAL
Flax is naturally germicidal and neutralises odours. Similar to wool, linen products can simply air out. This prevents excessive washing and saves resources.
RESOURCE-SAVING
Linen is one of the few fibers that can be grown in Europe. Compared to cotton, its production is considerably more environmentally friendly, is purely mechanical and does not require chemical additives.

Materials& Production
Outer fabric 100% linen from European cultivation
Linen is made from the stalks of the flax plant. It is very resistant, which means that the use of pesticides is largely unnecessary if it is cultivated in a species-appropriate manner.
Flax is one of the oldest cultivated plants and was the most common textile fiber until the middle of the 19th century, when it was replaced by cotton due to time-consuming manual processing.

Lining 100% Organic Cotton
Our organic cotton is sown and harvested manually, without the use of genetic engineering, chemical, or synthetic pesticides. Instead, farmers employ beneficial insects and natural pesticides, such as an extract from neem trees. Due to cultivation in areas with favorable climate and soil conditions, artificial irrigation can largely be avoided. To maintain soil fertility, biodiversity, and prevent soil erosion, our organic cotton is grown in crop rotation. Farmers are fairly compensated and have coverage in case of crop failure. Child labor is prohibited. For more information on organic cotton, you can find our guide here.
HANDMADE in Portugal
We manufacture our caps in collaboration with a family-owned workshop in the north of Portugal.
