Our materials
At Myras, we want to offer another way of consume fashion, more natural and sustainable, avoiding synthetic and materials from animal origin in our clothes. We don't use cotton either because of the environmental impact of it's growing and processing stage.
We have always loved linen, so this fibre is part of our history of our brand DNA. More than just a trend, linen is for us the fabric of the future thanks to its environmental characteristics. Natural and ecological, linen is the very definition of Myras.
After more than two years of research, we are proud to have been able to find French and European partners committed to the linen sector, true enthusiasts and experts who were able to support us in the development of our collections. We wanted to know everything about our flax, down to the field in which it grows, to the farmer who cultivates it, to the hands that transform it into yarn and then into fabric. It is thanks to these committed partners that we are able to offer you this traceability on our materials.
To accompany linen in our collections, we use fabrics made of Tencel® (lyocell) or fabrics upcycled during capsule collections.
An environmentally friendly fiber
38,000 years old, linen is one of the oldest, if not the first textile plant fibre knew humanity. It is by nature an ecological and biodegradable fibre. It is grown in temperate zones close to the sea, in an area stretching from Caen to Amsterdam. Flax is grown in rotation and requires little fertilizer and pesticides, GMO-free and needs nothing other than the climate of its environment, which provides it with water rain, natural irrigation which is sufficient for its growth. This plant therefore limits the use of chemical products and does not require additional irrigation, compared to the cultivation of cotton for example.
Its cycle natural is very fast, but requires expertise, it only takes 100 days to see these pretty little blue flowers appear. The French farmers with whom we work are the guarantors of this know-how.
Zero waste
On this plant, everything is used and nothing is thrown away. 100% of the components of the plant are used (long fibre, short fibre, shives, seed and dust) by different sectors such as the textile sector, furniture, the automotive industry, construction, or even the food industry.
Local know-how
80% of the world production of flax fibers is grown in Western Europe, France being the leader. Our linen comes from Normandy, where this fibre is part of the history of this region. We have chosen a committed partner recognized for its expertise in this textile fibre.
Linen to wear
Linen has many qualities. It is a resistant, light and absorbent material. Thanks to its thermoregulatory character, linen is light and breathable in summer, warmer in winter, adapting to the your body temperature. Also recognized for its antibacterial properties, this material will bring you comfort and well-being, while respecting your skin.
