Hemp is a naturally strong, durable fiber, which is why we use it to make clothing you'll wear for years. It's also a remarkable crop: in the right conditions, it grows with relatively little irrigation and fewer chemical inputs than cotton.
The facts:
Stronger fiber than cotton. In a peer-reviewed comparison, hemp fibers measured 310–850 MPa in tensile strength, compared with 287–597 MPa for cotton. [BioResources, NC State University]
Resists pilling and wear. In 2025 lab testing of woven bast-fiber fabrics, hemp earned the highest pilling-resistance rating of the fabrics tested, holding up across repeated wear cycles. [Fibres & Textiles in Eastern Europe, 2025]
Uses less water. Hemp uses about 38% less water than cotton over a growing season, and its water footprint is roughly 60% lower. [Journal of Agrometeorology, 2023; Journal of Cannabis Research, 2025]
Needs fewer pesticides than cotton. Cotton is one of the most pesticide-intensive US field crops, with 42 million pounds applied across 10.3 million acres in 2021. Hemp is typically grown with substantially less pesticide input. [USDA data via Organic Trade Association]
Captures carbon as it grows. Published estimates put hemp's CO₂ uptake at roughly 3–15 tonnes per hectare during cultivation. At the higher end, that outpaces the 2–6 tonnes per hectare per year typical of forests. [Portland State University review; University of Cambridge research]
Can help clean soil. Hemp roots can absorb low levels of heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, and zinc from soil. This process is called phytoremediation. [Portland State University review]
Facts refer to hemp fiber and cultivation. Many of our garments are hemp–organic cotton blends.

"Trashie uses Fedex with QR Code labels. Very many Fedex stores and drop locations do not have QR code readers. Thus, my bag was not able to be shipped to Trashie :("
"I had three bags to send. I registered three bags to be sent and only one showed up with QR code, I tried logging into my account on the app and browser. The browser kept telling me login info was incorrect leading me a cycle of reset password sequences while the app just showed one registration and QR code. So, I only ended up sending one bag and throwing the other away. A complete waste because of third party. . . well, enshitification. I am disappointed that you all use Trashie as it just wants to make money off of good intentions to recycle clothes in an ecological, planet conscious way. Jungmaven , you can do better-- how about following Patagonia's system of recycling?"
"Trashie, what a name. For is it truly trash?? 🤔 The bag is a bit expensive, but ya can fit a lot in it to be repurposed in a good manner. I fit a jacket, sweater, 4-5 pairs of holy socks, shorts, swimsuit, 6ish boxer-briefs, and a pair of boots. Worth it to see everything hopefully made use of properly. 👍"
"I didn't expect the bag to be as big as it is! Making it very convenient to get rid of old clothes that are being replaced"
