§ 01What Is Combed Cotton?

Combed cotton receives an additional process that removes shorter fibres and impurities before spinning, leaving longer, more uniform fibres that can create smoother yarn.

§ 02How Is Regular Cotton Different?

Regular carded cotton does not receive the same additional combing treatment. Its quality still depends on raw cotton, yarn, knitting, dyeing, finishing and garment construction.

§ 03Why Does KHAVYN Use Combed Cotton?

KHAVYN's Signature Round Neck, Oversized and Polo collections use 100% combed cotton to support a refined feel and clean appearance.

§ 04Is Combed Cotton Better for Premium T-Shirts?

No single specification defines premium quality. Consider cotton and yarn quality, GSM, construction, fit, stitching, finishing and colour together.

§ 05The KHAVYN Approach

Carefully considered materials, clean silhouettes and understated details form KHAVYN's approach to Crafting Everyday Luxury.
