KAPOK Clothing - What is Kapok?
KAPOK
Kapok is a very fine and soft, naturally grown hollow fibre. It grows only naturally in trees in subtropical space in solid seed capsules and can not be cultivated. Since the fibre is very fine and short, it can be used for fabrics only in the blend with other fibres, such as organic cotton. Bleed uses the functional fibre blended with organic cotton for our Essential T-shirts.
