Organic vs Regular Cotton
Feel The Difference
Cultivation & Growing
Organic Pima: Grown without synthetic chemicals or GMOs.
Regular Cotton: Grown with synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Often GMO.
Harvesting
Organic Pima: Hand-picked to protect fiber integrity and softness.
Regular Cotton: Machine-harvested, often with chemical defoliants—can damage fibers
Ginning
Organic Pima: Requires a gentler ginning process to preserve long fibers.
Regular Cotton: Standard ginning methods can reduce fiber quality.
Cleaning & Spinning
Organic Pima: No chlorine or synthetic softeners. Combed gently to retain natural softness.
Regular Cotton: Often chemically treated to enhance texture—may irritate skin.
Dyeing & Finishing
Organic Pima: Dyed with non-toxic, low-impact dyes. No harsh finishes.
Regular Cotton: Commonly treated with synthetic dyes and finishes, some harsh on skin.
