Organic Clothing Directory

Organic clothing is produced without the use of artificial chemicals such as fertiliser and pesticides in materials like organic cotton and without the use of growth hormones or routine antibiotics for the fabrics that come from sheep, alpaca etc. Organic clothing offers the most comfortable and health positive properties out of any clothing as the natural fibres help to lower asthma causing substances and reduces the absorption of chemicals through the skin.

Here are 8 compelling reasons why... you should be using organic cotton.

1. QUALITY. The wide variety of chemicals used in the growing and processing of conventional cotton - some 82 of them - only serve to weaken the structure of the fibre and eventual fabric. Organic cotton is more durable.
2. COMFORT. Consumers consistently report that organic cotton products feel better against their skin. As any kinesiologist will confirm, organic cotton products resonate more harmoniously with the human body.
3. WELLBEING. Chemicals are not good for us and are largely to blame for the escalation of degenerative diseases in our society today. They are absorbed through our skin and through our lungs, especially when body heat causes them to vaporise.
4. SMELLS BETTER. Being absolutely pure and free of additive substances such as formaldehyde, commonly used in the "finishing" of conventional cotton, organic cotton has a delightful natural aroma.
5. ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE. Conventional cotton is disastrous for our environment, poisoning our soils and our waterways, consuming vast amounts of water, much of it needed to distribute chemical sprays.
6. SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. Every time we purchase a cheap imported conventional cotton product, we support the mindless practices that helped produce it. Every time we purchase an organic product, we affirm conscious, life-enhancing practices - we are helping to build a better world.
7. FAIR TRADE. It takes a lot of conscious, well-intended effort to grow cotton organically. Around the world, the experience is that organic farmers care for their workers - and not poisoning them is a good start! We are tending to see whole communities turn away from chemicals and start to receive a fairer return for their product, which is now at a premium.
8. NOT G.M. About 80% of Australia's cotton is now grown from genetically modified seed. Usage of G.M. seeds can contaminate organic seeds, making it impossible to grow organically. Certified organic cotton is grown from seed that has not been genetically modified.
