Not All Cotton Is Created Equal: Why We Chose Organic Combed Ring-Spun Cotton

Because what touches your skin should align with how you want to feel.

You wear cotton almost every day. But do you know what kind of cotton touches your skin?

Most people don’t. And honestly, most brands don’t talk about it. But at The Ei8ht, we do — because what you wear becomes part of your energy.

Some cotton is soft. Some is cheap. Some is kind to your skin. Some to the planet.

We chose to go all in. That’s why every Ei8ht piece is made from organic combed ring-spun cotton — a premium material that’s soft, clean, strong, and conscious.


What does “organic” mean for you?

  • No pesticides
  • No chemical residues on your skin
  • No harm to the earth or the farmers growing it

It’s clean. It’s safe. It lets your body breathe.

What does “combed” mean?

Think of it like brushing your hair — it removes the rough bits. The cotton gets smoother, softer, and kinder to your skin.

What does “ring-spun” mean?

It’s how the cotton is spun into yarn. Slow, intentional, and tight — so your shirt lasts longer, feels better, and doesn’t pill or sag.


Why we combine all three

When you wear an Ei8ht t-shirt, you feel the difference. You feel the smoothness. The strength. The purity. You feel like your clothing matches your rhythm — not the pressure of fast fashion.

For sensitive skin, or just sensitive souls

This fabric is for:

  • People with allergies, eczema, or skin conditions
  • People going through treatments or healing journeys
  • People who just want better — for themselves and the planet

The choice that aligns with you

You deserve to wear something that was made with care.
You deserve comfort that doesn’t come at a cost to your health or the planet.
That’s why we chose this cotton — and why you can trust it.
