KNT365の素材について
TRANPA / ORGANIC COTTON
We support Indian farmers in their transition to organic farming and ensure traceability throughout the entire process — from seed selection and cotton cultivation to yarn production.
We choose cotton not only for what it feels like against the skin, but for the story behind it.
For the things we wear and use every day, we believe the invisible background matters too — and should be something we can trace, understand, and share.
TERRY / ORGANIC COTTON
We embrace the natural irregularities of Indian organic cotton.
Because the cotton is hand-picked and grown using methods close to nature, tiny traces — such as colored fibers, dried leaves, or animal hair less than 1mm in size — may sometimes remain in the yarn.
These marks are usually treated as imperfections and removed.
We see them differently.
They are traces of nature, and a reminder of the way the cotton was grown and harvested.
Rather than eliminating every trace, we choose to embrace them as part of creating with greater respect for nature.
RECYCLED MATERIALS
A pre-dyed polyester yarn made from recycled PET bottles, used for pouch zipper straps and knitted patches.
At KNT365, we believe every detail should have a reason to exist.
Even the smallest components are carefully chosen to carry our material philosophy through to the parts that come into direct contact with your hands.
Internal summary
Indian organic cotton, grown on farmland free from pesticides and chemical fertilizers for more than three years, and harvested by hand.
By avoiding pesticides, this material helps reduce health risks for farmers while also offering a more thoughtful choice for the people who wear it.
A material chosen with care — for those who grow it, and for those who live with it.
Contamination as evidence
Because the cotton is hand-picked and grown in an environment close to nature, small traces such as colored fibers, dried leaves, and animal hair may sometimes remain.
These minute traces are often treated as contamination and considered imperfections.
At KNT365, we see them differently.
They are evidence of a material that remains close to nature and to the hands of the people who grow and harvest it.
Web copy direction
We choose materials that are not perfectly uniform, but retain traces of nature.
NO SOLID GROUND is a collection that does not hide these imperfections.
Instead, we embrace them as part of the material’s truth — and as a way of moving closer to what truly matters.
