Mr Ben’s Hemp
Hemp clothing
Hi my Name is Mr Ben and I am a Tailor who makes all my clothing myself here in the UK.
I make my Clothing from 100% Organic, Naturally dyed (with plants, roots and shoots) Hemp fabric (some of which is handwoven). I am trying to encourage people to buy quality, natural fibre, local made clothing instead of cheap plastic clothing.
Hemp is one of the most ethical and sustainable fabrics on the planet, all the way from the carbon trapping and soil cleaning Hemp plants, to the Long lasting and strong natural fibres.
My Fabrics are hand sourced in India (as no hemp fabric is currently being made in the UK) I have spent 2 months visiting the workshops and all parts of the fabric production myself to ensure that all the processes were sustainable and ethnical. The cloth is then Shipped to the UK where I do all the cutting, sewing, pressing and finishing of the garments myself.
My website is currently in production but follow what I’m up to on Instagram @mrbens_hemp
