clothing innovations :: natural puffer

Plastic microfibers come up quite a bit around here, so I thought you might be interested in hearing about this all natural puffer jacket by Older Brother. I feel like it is less pure innovation and more a blending of ancient + modern elements. The outer fabric is hand beeswaxed, organic cotton. The colored jacket + vest are naturally dyed with chaga mushrooms, wood extract + iron oxides. The puffer fill is made out of cruelty-free tree fill. Not a plastic microfiber in sight! And these jackets are made in California.

This puffer is a bit pricey, but it's a beautiful example of what can be done when we, humans, put on our thinking caps + do what it takes to make it happen! Bravo, Older Brother! Lead the way!
