Once the cotton bolls mature, they’re carefully harvested and ginned locally in New Mexico. Ginning separates the cotton fibers from the seeds, ensuring the raw material remains pure and ready for the next stage, all while keeping the process close to the source.

The cleaned cotton travels by truck to North Carolina, where it’s spun into yarn. This transformation from raw fiber to yarn lays the foundation for every garment—resulting in soft, strong, and durable yarns that are built to last.

If the yarn is to be woven, it undergoes plying in North Carolina. Plying involves twisting multiple strands together, adding extra strength and durability. This step ensures that the final woven fabric maintains its structure while staying soft and breathable.

Next, the yarn — plied for wovens, unplied for knits — is transformed into fabric. For our knits, the yarn is sent to South Carolina to be knit into soft, flexible textiles perfect for everyday wear. For wovens, the yarn is sent to Pennsylvania, where it’s woven into premium, durable fabrics.

Once knit or woven, the fabric heads to our trusted “finishing” partners in North Carolina or Pennsylvania. Here, the fabric is washed and prepared for cutting.

The finished fabric is then cut and sewn into garments by skilled artisans. Our knit pieces - ie: tees and sweatshirts - are crafted in Georgia with the perfect drape. While our woven pieces - ie: trousers and jackets - are tailored in Pennsylvania for a structured, timeless silhouette.

For select styles, we use plant dyes in Pennsylvania. These earth-derived dyes celebrate the beauty of nature’s imperfections — offering rich, unique colorways without the toxins or waste of conventional dyeing methods.
