LINEN

Linen prevents germs and molds from breeding because it has four times hygroscopic nature that cotton does as well as that it’s fast-dry.
It results in preventing bad odors. It is said that linen is the most durable of all the natural fibers.
The used linen is from France -French linen- and this has the lovely feature which gives you a crisp feeling of linen. The fabric is thin and easy to use as a scarf.
※The laundry symbol says “dry clean” as linen is likely to shrink when washed.
