nau.com: sustainable urban + outdoor apparel

We love this renewable fiber for its exceptional quality, and we make sure the sheep shorn for us are treated with the utmost care.

Organic Cotton

The question isn't whether to use 100% organic versus conventional cotton. The question is: how can we use it to improve other fibers?

Recycled Polyester

It's the most sustainable fiber used to produce weather-resistant outerwear. It also happens to be our most versatile fiber.

MicroModal®

Often considered the world¹s softest fiber, MicroModal® is, hands down, one of our favorite renewable fibers.

Waxed Organic Cotton

There's nothing sustainable about applying an oil-based wax to conventionally grown cotton. That's why we decided to make our own.

Tencel

With a fine hand and superb performance characteristics, Tencel could be the most luxurious technical fiber we use.

Waterproof Wool

Wool is incredibly versatile. But add a waterproof layer and suddenly you add another dimension to an already superior natural fiber.

Cocona

We discovered Cocona® insulation while looking for an alternative to goose down, and, so far, we're impressed.

Goose Down

Goose down offers the highest warmth-to-weight ratio than any other natural or synthetic insulation. But it also presents an ethical challenge.
