Red jacket made of coarse hand-spun cotton

This plum red jacket has a beautifully sturdy structure of coarsely spun cotton. The cotton is spun at home by a spinner with an authentic Ghandi spinning wheel. The fabric is then woven on a hand loom by a local weaver at home.

Local economy

Spinning and weaving at home is a solution for many people in remote villages. They do not have to leave their village to work and can set a time schedule for their work themselves. In India, spinning and weaving was a crucial part of the local economy for a long time. It has almost completely disappeared with the emergence of large cotton factories and the fast fashion industry. Cotton Rack gives people a chance by having the fabrics for their collection made by people in the villages.

The jacket is fairly tight so pay close attention to the sizing.
