Raw Hemp Sweatshirt
It goes from plant to sweatshirt in the fewest steps possible.
- The sweatshirt is left in its raw, undyed state
- Built with 55% hemp
- Hemp combined with organic cotton for softness
Hemp has been banned by governments, had war declared against it, and been accused of bringing down modern society. But the truth is hemp is one of the most extraordinary plants on Earth. With 4x the durability and 8x the tensile strength of cotton, the Egyptians used it to haul rocks around when they were building the pyramids, and Chinese warlords built their armour from it. Christopher Columbus’s voyage to the New World in 1492 was made possible thanks to the strength of his hemp sails.
From an environmental perspective every tonne of hemp produced removes 1.6 tonnes of CO2 from the air. It requires zero pesticides and very little water to cultivate. And it’s so smart scientists now use it to clean up soil, water and air contaminated with radioactive isotopes after nuclear meltdowns.
As for clothing, the plant’s fibres grow to over 4 metres which makes them incredibly soft yet really strong. It’s breathable, water repellent, antibacterial, UV resistant and biodegradable. So we’re now going back to building clothes out of it in its raw and undyed state.
100 Year Sweatpants
Ultra-soft sweatpants that keep out wind, fire, rain, and temperatures 4x hotter than the sun.
Technical Details
They’re windproof, abrasion resistant, water repellent and fire resistant on the outside, and fleece lined on the inside.
Windproof, abrasion resistant, water repellent and fire resistant
Stick the 100 Year Sweatpants under a microscope and you’ll find 4 different layers of technology that start with the material itself. The inside of the fabric is made from an incredibly dense fleece that’s 4x more windproof than a regular fleece, while the outside of the fabric is a blend of modacrylic and aramid fibres for fire resistance. On top of that there are two coatings. One makes the sweatpants highly abrasion resistant, the other helps it shed rain and snow.
The sweatpants can withstand temperatures of 19,400°C. That’s 4x hotter than the sun.
Most high strength, fireproof materials will do a good job of keeping you alive, but a bad job of making you comfortable. These sweatpants change that.
The pockets are reinforced with ultra-tough Cordura
There are also two angled back pockets fitted with water resistant zippers and protected by storm flaps. All the pockets are lined with ultra-tough Cordura to prevent them from wearing out over time.
The 100 year sweatpants are built from an ultra-tough, all-weather, fire resistant supermaterial.
4x more windproof than regular fleece
The underside of the sweatpants is a soft engineered fleece, and it’s this inner layer that provides the warmth and comfort you want from any great pair of sweatpants. It has an extremely compact structure that traps thousands of tiny thermal air pockets and makes it 4x more windproof than regular fleece. It means you can either wear the sweatpants as your regular chill-out pants, or as your insulation layer in colder temperatures.
