At Rawbought, our mission is to create top-notch sleepwear that seamlessly blends comfort, style, and sustainability. A question we often hear is, "Why don't you use 100% Modal fabric in your products?" Today, we're peeling back the layers on our fabric choices to show you how they benefit you.
What is LENZING™ Modal and how is it made?
Modal is a dream come true for anyone who loves luxurious softness and eco-friendly fashion. Derived from beech tree pulp, this sustainable fabric is known for its silky smooth texture.
The production process involves breaking down the pulp into fibres, which are then spun into yarn. Additionally, Modal is more sustainable than cotton, as it uses less water and fewer chemicals in its production process.
The result? A fabric that is breathable, absorbent, and highly resistant to shrinking and fading. MicroModal, which is what our Je Dors Signature Pyjamas, Carezza Lace Pyjamas, and Daydream Essentials collections are made of, is even softer since it's made with finer fibres.
The Benefits of LENZING™ Modal
Modal offers numerous advantages that make it a popular choice for high-quality sleepwear and loungewear:
- Soft and Hypoallergenic: Its silky smooth texture feels incredible against the skin, and its hypoallergenic nature is great, especially for kids!
- Breathability: It allows air to flow freely, keeping you cool and comfortable.
- Moisture-wicking: Modal efficiently wicks away moisture, keeping you comfortable.
- Durability: Modal resists shrinking and fading, ensuring your garments look great wash after wash.
Why We Blend Modal with Elastane
Enhanced Comfort
When it comes to ultimate comfort, we've found that a little bit of stretch goes a long way. By adding stretch fibres like elastane, our garments move with your body. Whether you're lounging at home, drifting off to sleep, or out and about, you'll love the extra give that keeps you comfy all day long. The Daydream V Neck Tee perfectly exemplifies this, combining 95% Lenzing MicroModal with 5% elastane for a soft touch and added flexibility.
Better Fit
Stretch fibres help our garments maintain their shape, ensuring a perfect fit even after many washes – especially as it helps to reduce pilling! This blend keeps your sleepwear looking fresh and feeling snug without being restrictive. The Je Dors Signature Pyjamas are designed for maximum comfort, with just the right amount of stretch.
Accessible
Mixing Modal with other fibres also helps us manage costs, making our premium products more affordable without sacrificing that luxurious feel you love. By doing so, we ensure that you can enjoy high-quality, sustainable sleepwear without breaking the bank. Discover your everyday go-to's in our Daydream Essentials collection for women and men.
What we do is all about our commitment to comfort, fit, and affordability. We want you to enjoy the best of both worlds – the silky softness of Modal with the flexibility of so much more.
