This cape is made from our fine weave, 100% cotton fabric. Its dimensions are 62 cm long and 90 cm wide, and the shoulder width is 30 cm.

Made of 100% cotton with 50% of the threads hand-spun from native cotton from the Oaxaca coast. We use white cotton and coyuchi cotton (naturally brown). Our cotton is grown by family farmers, on rain fed plots, inter-cropped with corn and other edible plants. Agro-ecology practices are applied to increase agro-biodiversity and food security. In this way, we seek to regenerate the soil and conserve water for the future. The black thread we use comes to us pre-dyed.

This garment is made of 100% cotton, fine weave fabric. The thread is handmade by one of the 300 artisans who uses a spinning wheel originally designed by Mahatma Gandhi. The fabric is woven on the pedal loom. The thread is dyed with plants from the state of Oaxaca, by hand in our workshop. Everything is made in the homes of artisans who live in the homesteads and towns of San Sebastián Rio Hondo.
