Transparent Supply Chain
There is nothing on the market like the Cotton of the Carolinas t-shirt brand. TS Designs is leading the industry by bringing the entire process, “from dirt to shirt”, back within arm’s reach – or at least, a day’s drive. Everything happens within less than 600 miles, where a typical t-shirt can travel 13,000 miles or more. It’s not just USA made; it’s Carolina made.
These shirts are made from conventionally grown North Carolina cotton and you can track them through the entire supply chain back to the farmer. You can even meet the farmer yourself during our annual Cotton Harvest Tour. Try one on for size! They’re made from a super soft, medium-weight (5.4oz) ringspun fabric.
