The Vollebak Hemp and Black Algae T Shirt is an eco-friendly garment created to provide consumers with an alternative to the existing black fashion styles on the market. The shirt is crafted without carbon black -- a pigment sourced from petroleum and in almost all black garments -- and is instead achieved with black algae grown in giant ponds. The pigment is then printed onto hemp sourced from a farmer cooperative in the Himalayas in northern India.
The Vollebak Hemp and Black Algae T Shirt offers a decidedly sustainable take on dark garments, and is UV-resistant, water-repellent and even antibacterial. Priced at $110, the shirt will only become even more comfortable with wear thanks to its hemp construction.
