What to Consider
Materials & Construction
- ·Linen — One of the strongest natural fibers — gets softer and more beautiful with every wash. Quality linen can last 20-30 years.
Longevity & Care
- ·Linen — Machine wash gentle, air dry. Wrinkles are part of the character and soften with wear. Iron on high if desired.
Sustainability
- ·Linen — Made from flax, which requires minimal water and no pesticides. The entire plant is used, producing zero waste.
Cost Per Use
- ·Linen — Linen's decades-long lifespan makes it one of the best cost-per-use fabrics available, despite higher upfront costs.
- ·Outerknown is known for products that hold up over years of use — which typically means a lower cost per use than cheaper alternatives that need replacing.
- ·Priced around $100 (midpoint of $50–$150 for Apparel). At ~8 uses/month, this hits the $1-per-use "worth it" mark in 1 years — and falls to roughly 21¢ per use across a 5-year lifespan.
