Why we started LAMAN
Growing up in Haryana, every affordable T-shirt we could find was synthetic polyester — sticky in the heat, rough on skin, and deformed after a single season.
We searched for a 100% natural cotton option at a fair price and could not find one. So we made it ourselves.
LAMAN exists to give people a real option: pure cotton, three weights, no polyester, no inflated middleman price.
We publish the fabric specification, the lab results and the price openly on every product. If a claim cannot be sourced, we do not make it.
The store is at lamanclo.store. The fabric evidence is at /proof.
Cotton vs polyester
Cotton — what LAMAN uses
- Absorbs moisture and allows it to evaporate
- Breathes in 40°C Indian summer heat
- No static charge against the skin
- Biodegrades at end of life
- Zero microplastic shedding when washed
Polyester — what LAMAN avoids
- Derived from crude oil refinement
- Holds sweat against the skin in heat
- Builds static charge
- Does not biodegrade
- Releases microplastic fibres each wash
