The Utility Vest is constructed with a handloom 3x1 denim with Khadi pockets. Khadi is a traditional Indian cloth promoted by Gandhi during the Indian independence movement in 1903, contributing to the development of Indian nationalism. It is made of handspun yarn either left in its natural undyed and unbleached state, or dyed with natural color. It is then woven on a handloom in Gondal, Gujarat, by the weaving collective Udyog Bharti that supports over 2000 weaving families in sustainable textile production.
The Utility Vest is made with 100% handloom cotton and 100% Khadi cotton for the trim with Kantha stitching. Handwash separate colours, and hang dry in shade. Lauren is 175cm tall and wearing size M.
