CATA Consumers Against Toxic Apparel Video


SOS from TEXAS Organic Apparel

HOMEGROWN ORGANIC APPAREL
IN 
U.S.A.


It doesn't get any better than this.  This certified organic farm in Samnorwood, TX grows the cotton used for it's organic apparel.  Their product line includes baby, women and men's apparel.  We are honored that SOS from TEXAS has chosen to honor the CATA Pledge and give you a 10% discount on all your purchases.  From start to finish these clothes are definitely the real deal!


We Grow Organic Cotton T-Shirts

SOS t-shirts are made from organic cotton grown on our certified organic farms. We have been certified organic by the Texas Department of Agriculture since 1992. This certification information is provided with our products to show our authenticity. We are finding organic products in the market with very vague organic credentials. U.S. Organic Standards require a 3 year chemical free farming period before being allowed to be "certified organic".
Our cotton is planted in mid-May and harvested after frost in November. The harvested cotton is ginned at our certified organic gin and then shipped to a certified mill in North Carolina for spinning into yarn. The yarn is also knitted, finished and sewn in the Carolinas. SOS products have a pedigree as we can tell you when and where they were planted and trace their development into a finished product.

SOS organic cotton products are 100% Made in the USA, "sweat shop free", by American workers being paid a fair and lawful wage. These standards do not allow for a "cheap" organic t-shirt, but a product with a very high value and quality that our customers can be proud to wear for many years.
As we grow organic cotton t-shirts, we share our land with you, our customers. SOS organic cotton is "good for man and good for the land" as these practices improve our environment, create jobs for people in rural American and keep our family farm and heritage sustainable. SOS organic cotton products are truly unique and we hope you enjoy the fruit of our land. Check out Blog for updated information and product selections.

A Little Bit of History

Organic cotton clothing from our certified organic farms.
The old picture is of our family in the fields where I now grow organic cotton. The Oldham family has been growing cotton in Texas for more than 100 years. Our grandfather broke out prairie grass to plant cotton in the rich soil. We maintain this fertility with organic farming practices which include crop rotations and enhancing the habitat for beneficial insects. Nothing synthetic is added and nothing is taken out except cotton. From this cotton, we make organic tee shirts. SOS FROM TEXAS is pleased to offer our customers the fruit of our land in our organic cotton garments. See the whole process of "growing an organic cotton t-shirt" on our youtube video.

Making sustainable clothing for everyday living!
(a quote from Vital Hemp owner Ron Alcalay)












VITAL HEMP'S OUTLOOK ON THE  FUTURE.............

he vision of vital hemp

Vital Hemp envisions a world where people wear comfortable, affordable, high-quality hemp clothing, loving it because it looks and feels so good, and is good for people and the planet too.

By re-introducing the public to the superior qualities of hemp clothing, people will begin to understand the value of the hemp plant as a sustainable source for other commonly used products. Wearing vital hemp and using other hemp products fosters positive attitudes that will result in the re-legalization of the cultivation of industrial hemp in the USA.
We envision a world where people wear soft hemp clothes for years, wearing them in until they're softer than any cotton that wears out in months. Where babies wear hemp diapers because they're anti-bacterial and anti-fungal; where kids play in hemp jeans, and where we all sleep in the most comfy hemp sheets, dreaming of the clean oceans we'll swim in the next day, surfing in the clean air, with real blue skies, sailing with the happy dolphins and whales and feeling healthy and at peace because the world is healthy and at peace. And yes, this is possible, and we can provide for all. And no, this was not written under the influence of hemp's cousin
