Organic cotton

Kismet Yogastyle fashion is sustainable!

Kismet products are made from high-quality, environmentally friendly organic cotton.
Organic cotton prevents the leaching of farmland, which must be cultivated without synthetic and chemical fertilizers for three years in order to be certified. The seeds must not be genetically modified cotton and certain insect species are used as natural pesticides.

Organic cotton has a thicker humus layer than conventional cultivation and therefore uses less water as the nutrients can be optimally stored.
The cotton plant is a shrub.

The fibers of the cracked bolls are the spinning material. These fibers consist of 90% cellulose. Differences in quality result from fiber length and fineness: the longer the fiber, the more uniform and durable; and the finer the fiber, the softer and more pleasant it is.
The swelling capacity of the fiber enables high moisture absorption.

Our Vaju Pant, the Hari Short, the Agni Tee and the Kismet Logo Tank for women are ecologically conscious fashion with a high level of comfort and durability, making them sustainable in both senses of the word.

In it, environmentalist Alexandra Cousteau draws attention to the problematic methods used in the conventional cultivation of the cotton plant.3 trillion items of clothing are produced every year. Of these, 50% of all clothing produced worldwide is made from cotton. Conventionally grown cotton is 70% genetically modified and uses 2,700 liters of water to produce a single cotton T-shirt. Unfortunately, only 1% of organic cotton is grown worldwide.
