Click on any fabric below to explore how it feels against your skin
👆 Initial Touch
Cotton feels soft and welcoming against your fingertips. The surface has a gentle, slightly bumpy texture from the natural fibers. It’s neither slippery nor rough – just pleasantly neutral. When you first touch quality cotton, there’s an immediate sense of comfort and familiarity.
👕 Against Your Skin
When cotton drapes against your body, it feels breathable and gentle. The fabric doesn’t cling or create static. It has enough structure to maintain its shape while feeling soft enough for all-day comfort. High-quality cotton becomes even softer with each wash, developing a lived-in comfort.
🌞 Summer Feel Notes
Cotton feels particularly pleasant in summer – it doesn’t trap heat against your skin and has a cooling effect when air moves through it. The fabric feels fresh and clean even after wearing for several hours.
👆 Initial Touch
Linen has a distinctive rustic texture that immediately feels authentic and natural. Your fingers detect the slightly irregular weave and the characteristic “slubs” (thicker sections) that give linen its personality. It feels substantial yet lightweight, with a crisp, dry hand-feel.
👕 Against Your Skin
Against your body, linen feels refreshingly cool and airy. The loose weave allows air to flow freely, creating natural ventilation. Initially, it may feel slightly stiff, but this is actually beneficial – the fabric holds itself away from your skin, preventing clingy, sweaty discomfort.
🌞 Summer Feel Notes
Linen is the ultimate hot weather fabric – it feels like natural air conditioning. The texture that might seem rough in winter feels perfectly cooling in summer heat. It gets softer and more comfortable with each wear.
👆 Initial Touch
Bamboo fabric surprises with its silky-smooth surface that rivals expensive materials. Running your fingers across bamboo feels like touching a cloud – incredibly soft with an almost luxurious slip. The surface is uniform and fine, without the texture variations found in other natural fibers.
👕 Against Your Skin
When bamboo drapes against your skin, it feels incredibly gentle and cool. The fabric seems to actively wick moisture away, leaving your skin feeling dry and comfortable. It has a subtle cooling effect and never feels sticky or clingy, even in humid conditions.
🌞 Summer Feel Notes
Bamboo feels amazing in summer heat – like wearing nothing at all. The moisture-wicking properties mean you stay dry, while the softness prevents any chafing or irritation during active summer days.
👆 Initial Touch
Silk has an unmistakable smoothness that feels almost liquid under your fingertips. The surface is so refined that it seems to glide beneath your touch. There’s a subtle warmth to silk that comes from its protein fiber structure, making it feel alive and responsive.
👕 Against Your Skin
Against your body, silk feels adaptively comfortable – cool when you’re warm, warming when you’re cool. The fabric drapes beautifully and moves with your body like a second skin. It’s incredibly lightweight yet feels substantial and luxurious.
🌞 Summer Feel Notes
Silk feels sophisticated in summer – cool and elegant for special occasions. However, it can show perspiration, so it’s best for air-conditioned environments or evening wear when temperatures are milder.
👆 Initial Touch
Viscose feels silk-like but more relaxed. The surface is smooth and has a pleasant drape that flows between your fingers. It’s not as perfectly smooth as silk but has a more accessible, friendly feel. The texture is consistent and refined without being precious.
👕 Against Your Skin
When worn, viscose feels fluid and breathable. It drapes away from your body beautifully, creating airflow and preventing that clingy feeling. The fabric feels cool initially and maintains a pleasant temperature throughout wear, though it can feel slightly damp in very humid conditions.
🌞 Summer Feel Notes
Viscose offers silk’s elegance with better summer practicality. It feels cool and comfortable for most summer activities, though avoid it for intense exercise as it can retain moisture.
👆 Initial Touch
Merino wool surprises with its soft, non-itchy texture. Unlike traditional wool, merino feels gentle and smooth with just a hint of natural texture. The fibers are so fine they feel almost cotton-like, but with a subtle bounce and resilience that’s uniquely wool.
👕 Against Your Skin
Against your body, lightweight merino feels thermostat-like – it actively regulates temperature and wicks moisture away incredibly effectively. You’ll notice it keeps you comfortable across a wide range of temperatures, feeling neither too warm nor too cool.
🌞 Summer Feel Notes
Lightweight merino feels surprisingly good in summer – much cooler than expected. It’s perfect for active summer pursuits because it manages moisture excellently and naturally resists odors even with repeated wear.
