we got SOUL
Triple Five Soul announcs new line of hemp & soy clothing

The news rolling off today's PR Newswire is that Brooklyn's Triple Five Soul and L.A.'s Syrum Versus Venom have signed supply deals with Candian Hemptown to make future T5Soul and SVV clothing form hemp, soy, bamboo and a new enxymaticly processed hemp silky tissue. Way to go guys!! Proud Hemptown cheif, Jason Finnis beams: "Our partnership with SVSV will promote alternative organic fabrics to a mainstream fashion customer. David Gensler and his team have created amazing brands and this alternative fabric line will go a long way to promote organic textiles as a fashion item."

Now the mainstream can get behind these truley innovative fabrics! the PRN wire goes further describing the new technologies: "In addition to the company's expertise in Bamboo and Soy, Hemptown and the Canadian federal science organization NRC have jointly developed a patentable enzyme process to transform industrial hemp into a soft, white fibre. The process and the end product, called CRAILAR(TM) is highly environmentally sensitive, grown organically without the use of pesticides, toxic fertilizers or the enormous fresh water irrigation required by cotton"

...just remember, you can't smoke it, don't even think about it.

hey thanks mira! I got a beutiful hemp jacket in amsterdam a few years ago... i don't remeber the manufacturer, but also in Harlaan there's a shop called BNK (it used to be called BioNature Kleiding?) and they have great products! All environmental and good worker conditions.... also, it may be a bit far for you.. but there's an amazing online store callde Rawganique and they have amazing quality and prices and are 100% hippy in their labour and materials...
