Hemp is one of the oldest and most sustainable fabrics on the planet. It's lightweight, absorbent, and has three times the tensile strength of cotton. It's UV and mould resistant, hypoallergenic, and gets softer the more you wear it. It also requires very little water to grow and is naturally resistant to pests making it one of the most genuinely eco-friendly fabric choices available.
Braintree Hemp is one of the original names in sustainable hemp fashion, established in Sydney in the mid-1990s, setting out to prove that hemp could be both durable and stylish.

What is hemp fabric and why is it sustainable? Hemp fibre is lightweight, absorbent, and has three times the tensile strength of cotton. It's UV and mould resistant, hypoallergenic, and gets softer the more you wear it. The hemp plant also requires very little water and is naturally pest resistant making it one of the most environmentally responsible fabric choices available.
What is the difference between hemp and bamboo clothing? Both are sustainable natural fibres that are breathable and comfortable. Hemp is slightly more durable and textured, with a feel that softens over time. Bamboo is softer from the first wear, naturally moisture-wicking, and slightly more lightweight. Braintree's bamboo and hemp blend combines the best of both.
