About Us

From the first "Dirt Shirt" tinted with that infamous red clay, earth creations has now grown into a full line of eco-friendly, clay dyed clothing made from sustainable fibers such as organic cotton and hemp.

 

What We Do

We use natural clay and low impact dyes combined with environmentally friendly fibres such as organic cotton and hemp to create sustainable, colourful clothing for men, women, and children. Our clay dyed eco friendly range includes 1) Regional designs 2) Nature inspired designs by local artists and 3) Learning by Wearing designs

 

How We Do It

We use a natural clay dyeing process which starts with a pre-dye soaking bath for all of our garments. Next we place our garments in a dyeing bath consisting of our regionally sourced clays or low impact dyes to colour our fabrics, we then transfer the garments to a setting bath which binds the clay to the fibres so that the colours of our naturally dyed garments remain in the garment. Lastly, we transfer to a finishing rinse to remove any excess clay.

 

Why We Do It

Nature is our greatest Inspiration and Protecting the Earth is our Passion. At earth creations, we are trying our best to make a difference by positively impacting the lives of everyone involved - from the organic farmer, to the fabric knitter, to people wearing our clothing.
