MATERIALS

Organic Clothing

Xylem's fabrics are meticulously selected from the finest providers of organic cotton, hemp, silk and soy materials. Each garment is hand colored in small batches, using custom mixed, low-impact dyes, and all waste is reduced and recycled responsibly. Our stretch fabrics embrace and enhance your body and offer infinite fashion combinations, allowing you to express your unique self in a different way every day.

That's why Xylem features unique fashionable designs made from Soy "Kashmere", Organic Cotton, Hemp, silk and Tencel which creates clothing that is both rich in style and environmentally sensitive.

Soy "Kashmere"


Soy Kashmere" is the world's first cloth made from soybeans. This exceptional eco-friendly fiber is made from the renewable natural resource of unused protein remaining from the production of soybean oil, tofu and soymilk. Soy fabric is being referred to as vegetable "Kashmere" because of its incredible luster, loft, drape, and durability. All byproducts of soybean fiber production are of a harmless nature and are completely recyclable. The soy is non-gmo and is blended with organic cotton and spandex.

Organic Cotton


Cotton is the most used fabric of the conventional clothing industry. It is cool, comfortable, and breathable. We use the organic version of this well-known textile, which is grown without the use of toxic pesticides or fertilizers, and supports healthy agricultural practices.

Hemp


Hemp has a sensuous drape and hang, similar to that of linen. It is also extremely durable, yet insulating making it desirable for both blistering-hot summer and bitter-cold winter wear. We use 100% pure hemp, as well as tencel, wool, and silk blends.

Tencel


Tencel is the trade name for a human-made, natural fabric called "Lyocell" that is cool and breathable, like rayon, with a gorgeous, flowing drape. Tencel is made from the cellulose of farm-raised trees, grown on land that has been deemed unsuitable for food growth or animal grazing.
