12 13 OUR MATERIALS & FABRICS All the fabrics that Stanley/Stella uses aremade fromorganic, sustainable or recycled materials to ensure that our envi- ronmental footprint is as gentle as possible – GOTS-certi- fied organic cotton, Tencel ® made from FSC/PEFC-certi- fied wood pulp, GRS recycled cotton, and GRS recycled polyester. While making this eco-conscious decision, we never compromise on comfort, style or functionality. Whatever the type of knit or weave – from smooth single jersey, durable piqué and cozy sweats, to robust ripstop and sturdy canvas – we always choose our fabrics with the utmost care to ensure the best possible fit, feel and perfor- mance, as well as superior printability. MATERIALS KNITTED FABRICS WOVEN FABRICS ORGANIC COTTON RECYCLED COTTON RECYCLED POLYESTER TENCEL ® Natural, GMO-free fibre grown without any chemicals. Our cotton yarn is made of long staple fibres only, and is combed and ring spun. Soft, breathable, and easily printable. Made from pre-consumer waste, including our own cutting waste. Shorter fibres require blending with higher-quality fibres like recycled polyester for accessories and organic cotton for t-shirts. Made from recovered PET bottles to reduce plastics pollution. All components on our jackets are recycled polyester, easing end-of- life recyclability. Strong and durable. Made from wood pulp from FSC/ PEFC forests. These fibres are blendedwith organic cotton to offer added coolness and a fluid drape. SINGLE JERSEY BRUSHED PLAIN WEAVE FRENCH TERRY SLUB SINGLE JERSEY SHERPA RIPSTOP LOOSE SLUB SINGLE JERSEY 1X1 RIB CANVAS PIQUÉ 2X2 RIB The basic knit structure where the front side is smooth, while the back side is piled with loops. Sweatshirt fabric is called “brushed” when the inside loops of a French terry knit are carefully brushed, for a soft, warm feel. The most common type of woven fabric, with yarn in a criss-cross pattern. The front side has a smooth jersey structure, while the back side has a distinct loop structure. The same as single jersey, but with slub yarn, which gives the irregular appearance. Fabric that is brushed on the front side for a sheepskin look, and that feels cozy and warm. Woven fabric reinforced with cross-hatched threading for better resistance against rips. Slub yarn knitted in a looser way, giving a more flexible fabric. Used for sweatshirt cuffs and hems, with single alternatingwales that look identical on both sides of the fabric and offer greater stretch. Highly durable plainweave, woven with threads of different sizes. Knitted using tuck stitches to cre- ate a honeycomb-like geometric structure, commonly used for polo shirts. Used for sweatshirt cuffs and hems, with double alternating wales that offer even more elastic- ity than 1x1 rib.
