COMPOSITION: 60% organic cotton, 40% recycled cotton
Organic cotton is harvested in India, in the Mumbai region. GOTS certification, whose standards are very strict, assures us that cotton is grown and harvested in good social, wage and environmental conditions.
The cotton thread is made in Spain, by the RECOVER company. This company mixes fibers from old jeans as well as GOTS organic cotton, to obtain a new yarn, therefore composed partly of recycled fibers and organic fibers.

Finally, this new yarn is dyed and woven by the company TEDJOS ROYO, still in Spain, in Valencia. To find out more, visit the MUD JEANS website: https://mudjeans.eu/pages/sustainability-fair-production-tejidos-royo
