100% Egyptian Cotton / Fil d’Ecosse
Our Essentials are entirely made (100%) Egyptian Giza cotton.
Our unique Fil d’Ecosse / Cotton Lisle is made from cotton exclusively grown on a small plot located east of the Nile Delta and is often referred to as the “White Gold”.
This cotton, well known for its finesse and outstanding quality, is hand-picked, guaranteeing the highest levels of purity, all without chemicals. The harvest is done at maturity when the capsules burst and release the fibers.
Our selected cotton lisle is a cotton with "very long fiber", accounting for only about 3% of the world's total cotton production. The length of the fiber is more than 34/36 mm and its uniformity is remarkable displaying a high level of strength.
Furthermore, we are proud of our Oeko Certification - Tex Standart 100. Our yarns are only dyed with coloring substances that meet the ecological and human requirements established by the Oeko-Tex brand. Our socks also undergo and antibacterial treatment
