Add 100% linen pieces to your capsule wardrobe, perfect for all-season wear. We love linen for its temperature-regulating properties, ensuring breathability in the summer and insulation in the cooler months. Made from the resilient flax plant, your linen sets and separates will become softer and more pliable as you wear and wash them.
Hemp
Invest in quality pieces that will stand the test of time with hemp, a versatile fabric
celebrated by slow fashion enthusiasts for its eco-friendly cultivation. Hemp fibres are exceptionally strong and durable, making garments resistant to wear and tear. With its moisture-wicking properties, you can comfortably wear hemp all year round.

GARMENT CARE
You are quickly becoming a conscious shopper by choosing natural fabrics to be a staple in your wardrobe. To maximize your garments lifespan, make sure to take the proper precautions caring for your pieces. We encourage you to hand wash your Slate garments in cold water and lay flat or hang to dry. Minimize the use of detergent to protect the fibres and do not tumble dry.

To smooth out wrinkles, we suggest steaming your garment. Steam adds moisture to the fabric while softening it and removing any creases. If you prefer to iron, do this while the garments are slightly damp and use a high setting with lots of steam and heat.
