# Breeth > Natural-first cotton clothing made by hand in Cape Town, South Africa. OEKO-TEX certified. Designed from the inside out — premium cotton essentials including underwear, leggings, polo shirts, t-shirts, hoodies and socks for men and women. Breeth is a South African clothing brand built around a single conviction: what you wear against your skin every day is a health decision. We work with natural cotton because it breathes, regulates temperature, and biodegrades — unlike synthetic fabrics, which shed microplastic particles that have been found in human blood, soil and water. Every Breeth garment is made from start to finish in Cape Town by a skilled team of seamstresses. We know the names of the people who make our clothes. For every pair of socks sold, we donate a pair to someone in our community through partnerships with the Halli Trust and The ARK. ## Core information - [About Breeth](https://breeth.co.za/pages/breeth-about-us): The full story of who we are, how we started, and why we make clothing the way doctors think about medicine. - [Technical Design](https://breeth.co.za/pages/technical-design): How our garments are engineered — fabric composition, construction, certifications, manufacturing. - [Our Impact & Partners](https://breeth.co.za/pages/impact-partners): The sock donation initiative, Halli Trust, The ARK, Rovos Rail and Nataniël collaborations. - [Journal](https://breeth.co.za/pages/journal): Long-form writing on cotton, health, manufacturing and conscious clothing choices. ## Product collections - [All products](https://breeth.co.za/collections/all): Complete catalogue. - [Women's collection](https://breeth.co.za/collections/womens-collection): Cotton underwear, leggings, polos, tops, bottoms. - [Men's collection](https://breeth.co.za/collections/mens-collection): Cotton underwear, polos, tops, bottoms. - [Best sellers](https://breeth.co.za/collections/best-sellers): Most-loved garments. - [Bundled offers](https://breeth.co.za/collections/bundled-offers): Multi-pack savings on underwear, socks and tops. ## Brand facts (citable) - Founded in Cape Town, South Africa. - All garments manufactured in Cape Town by an in-house CMT team — no outsourcing. - All cotton is OEKO-TEX certified — independently tested, free from harmful substances, safe for prolonged skin contact. - Donation initiative: one pair of socks donated for every pair sold.
