Pastel P-6 Logo Organic Crew T-Shirt - White

This lightweight organic cotton T-shirt uses no GMO seeds or toxic pesticides, benefits soil quality and biodiversity, and saves 27 gallons of water compared to a conventional cotton T-shirt. Fair Trade Certified™ sewn.

The Pastel P-6 Logo Organic Crew T-Shirt is made from ringspun U.S.-grown organic cotton that’s sourced from member farms of the Texas Organic Cotton Marketing Cooperative. Patagonia original design inspired by a vintage Patagonia label is screen-printed with inks that are PVC- and phthalate-free. Crewneck styling with regular-fitting, classic straight cut. Taped shoulder seams for comfort and fit retention. Sturdy side seams keep garment from twisting and shrinking when washed.

Patagonia pay a premium for every Fair Trade Certified item that carries our label. That extra money goes directly to the workers at the factory, and they decide how to spend it. The program also promotes worker health and safety and social and environmental compliance and encourages dialogue between workers and management.

In 1996, with an increased awareness of the dangers of pesticide use and synthetic fertilizers in growing conventional cotton, Patagonia began the exclusive use of organically grown cotton in all of their cotton products.

The quality of organic cotton is equal to or better than conventionally grown cotton, yet organically grown methods support biodiversity and healthy ecosystems, improve the quality of soil and often use less water. Growing organically takes more time, requires more knowledge and skill, and, for now, costs more. But it’s worth it.

To ensure they are buying cotton that is organic as defined by the USDA’s National Organic Program, Patagonia requires numerous certificates issued by an accredited third-party certification body for every step of the supply chain, from farm to factories.
