Benefits of Linen Fabric
We only have one earth and we have to take care of it even if we choose fashion.
Since we wear clothes all the time, it's also important to create a sustainable wardrobe in order to reassess our footprint on nature. But how do you build a sustainable wardrobe anyway?
First, refine your sense of style based on your feelings and needs. Don't buy or keep anything you're not sure about or don't wear anymore.
Second, buy products that have a lower impact on nature when manufactured and/or disposed of. Do it yourself, recycle, reuse, repair and donate if possible. Get out of the fast fashion track.
We created a brand Gyihoong to satisfy them. It's not perfect, it can't save the world (hopefully it will), but at least, it uses eco-friendly materials and craftsmanship available in the market, and human labor is always appreciated.
Linen - one of the oldest known clothing materials, is also one of the most luxurious. It's also one of the most sustainable options available to us today.

Flax also has antibacterial and insect-resistant properties. Flax products will not mold in normal environments. In addition, flax also has the function of purifying the air. For example, it can absorb formaldehyde in the air and quickly decompose and volatilize it.
