Why Choose "Filo di Scozia" Cotton?
"Filo di Scozia" cotton is one of the most luxurious cotton varieties. It it imitates silk and is known for its luster and sheen.
Combed cotton undergoes a process of removal of small fibers from the yarn. As a result, fabrics from combed cotton are softer and more comfortable.
Double Twisted
Double-twisting of cotton yarns almost doubles their durability and strength.
Singed
Singeing is a process of burning off any protruding fibers to achieve smoothness, luster, and silkiness from the yarn.
Mercerized
Mercerization is a processes of treating the cotton with caustic solution to improve luster, dye affinity, and shrinkage resistance.
