Behind the thread
Supima is a fiber known for its softness, strength, and beautiful natural luster. Grown in the USA, Supima®️ cotton comes from the states of California, Arizona, Texas, and New Mexico.
It is different from other types of cotton due to its unique, extra-long staple fiber that gives the Supima cotton its valuable properties like strength, softness and natural sheen. In addition, the extra-long staples allow it to be spun into a fine yet durable single-ply thread. This is what makes the Supima clothing a softer, longer lasting, and more breathable luxury products.
The main difference between the various types of cotton is the type and length of fiber. Regular cotton has an average fiber length of about an inch, while Supima®️ cotton has fibers that are typically 1.5 inches.
