Algodon cotton is finer and stronger, and thus softer to the touch.
Algodon means ‘white cotton’
The fiber from which algodon cotton is manufactured has a higher spinning count and longer staple length than regular cotton.
Cotton fabrics with long fibres are produced in Egypt more often, whereas the shorter ones are found in India. This difference between quality improves durability of clothes produced by bamboo-based textiles as they can absorb more moisture before becoming wet.
In addition, shirts made from algodón have less twisted yarns on them so that it becomes shinier when laundered and pressed compared to regular cotton shirts because no knots or snags happen all through the fabric due to twists created during manufacturing.
Algodon cotton is finer and stronger, and thus softer to the touch.
It feels more like silk than like ordinary cotton: fine and light with a smooth satin finish. It also drapes beautifully and has a wonderful soft feel about it. 100% organic algodon clothing from bamboo-based textiles is good for people with sensitive skin.
A shirt made from algodon is softer and produces less lint than regular cotton shirts.
When washed and pressed, it has a more luxurious appearance than ordinary polyester or even silk because there are no knots or snags to cause wrinkles on the surface of the fabric due to twists created during manufacturing.
Algodon cotton is stronger than regular cotton without the addition of chemicals or dyes, so it can be worn on a hot summer day and won’t feel damp with sweat, nor will it go static in winter.
