Hemp may be known for its durability, but its comfort and style are second to none. Hemp fiber is much finer than Flax and ramie. Compared with flax and ramie's fineness of around Ne 650 to Ne 1900, hemp fiber's fineness can reach Ne 2800! It makes hemp textiles feel softer and much more comfortable. The higher the hemp content, the softer it gets. Hemp doesn't wear out, it wears in. All in All, the PERFECT material for bags!
