For hot weather, hemp has superior conductive qualities to those of all other textile fibers (equaled only by flax), allowing the wearer to feel cool, comfortable, and fresh in very hot and/or humid conditions.

- Hemp provides unparalleled protection from UV radiation.
- Hemp textiles have rich and supple texture and tremendous strength and durability.

- Plant fibers breathe much better than leather and synthetics - and hemp breathes better than all other plant fibers.
- Hemp fiber is also more environmentally sound than synthetics, because plant fibers are totally biodegradable and have been produced from a natural origin without the pollution resulting from the manufacture of synthetics.
- Hemp also has greater ecological benefits than other plant fibers since it is the most environmentally positive of all agricultural crops. It requires no chemicals in its production and actually improves the soil.
