Hemp Sisters
Basic clothing for men and women made from hemp and cotton. "Hemp Sisters is dedicated to providing one-of-a-kind, high-quality, hand-crafted clothing and accessories made of earth-sustaining, environmentally-friendly natural fiber materials such as hemp, nettle, recycled silk and wool.Hemp and nettle grow wild in nature and are hand-processed without chemicals on a traditional pit-loom by native villagers in the remote western villages of the Himalayan Kingdom Nepal. Recycled silk items are made by gathering waste pieces of silk from the cutting room floors of commercial producers in India and are then re-spun and hand knitted or crocheted into unique creations for Hemp Sisters. All Hemp Sisters items are hand-made by working women's cooperatives in Kathmandu, Nepal that pay fair wages, provide excellent working environments, and support the local women's community through scholarships and employment opportunities."

SOS from Texas
"We Grow Organic Cotton T-Shirts" for men, women, children and babies. This is one of those businesses that I just love, because they do every step of making the garments themselves. "SOS t-shirts are made from organic cotton grown on our certified organic farms. We have been certified organic by the Texas Department of Agriculture since 1992...Our cotton is planted in mid-May and harvested after frost in November. The harvested cotton is ginned at our certified organic gin and then shipped to a certified mill in North Carolina for spinning into yarn. The yarn is also knitted, finished and sewn in the Carolinas. SOS products have a pedigree as we can tell you when and where they were planted and trace their development into a finished product. SOS organic cotton products are 100% Made in the USA, "sweat shop free", by American workers being paid a fair and lawful wage...As we grow organic cotton t-shirts, we share our land with you, our customers. SOS organic cotton is "good for man and good for the land" as these practices improve our environment, create jobs for people in rural American and keep our family farm and heritage sustainable." And...these shirts are sewn with cotton thread.
very durable tee that will last many years and continue to soften with age and washings. the natural color varies from year to year with the type of growing season experienced by the cotton.

Earth Creations Clothing
Natural clay is the dye for this natural fiber clothing for men and women. One day after a storm, one of the founders went for a bike ride and ended up covered with red clay mud. When, after years of washing, it was found that the color could not be removed, clay-dyeing was born. SImple styles are made from hemp, organic cotton or organic linen and dyed various "earth" shades (and other colors using low-impact dyes). T-shirts are embroidered with nature-oriented themes.
