5 facts you didn't know about why cotton is essential in summer

5 datos que no sabías sobre por qué el algodón es esencial en verano

    At La Muda, we believe cotton is the king of summer. It's not just our favorite fabric: it has real benefits that help you enjoy the season more. Here are five key points that demonstrate how essential it is to wear 100% cotton (or at least more than 60%) when the heat is on:


    1. It is ultra breathable and regulates your temperature

    Cotton allows air to pass through the fabric, keeping you cool even in the heat. Unlike synthetics like polyester, cotton doesn't trap heat or moisture. This means less sweat, less stuffy feeling, and greater all-day comfort.


    2. Absorbs up to 25% of its weight in water

    Do you sweat? Cotton absorbs it without feeling sticky. It can absorb up to 25% of your body weight in moisture, wicking sweat away from your skin. It dries quickly and keeps you dry and comfortable.


    3. Hypoallergenic and friendly to sensitive skin

    Cotton is soft and unlikely to cause irritation or allergies. Natural fibers help prevent acne and rashes, especially with so much sun and sweat. Ideal if you have sensitive skin or your little ones do.


    4. It doesn't smell like "pool" (or overheated sweat)

    Polyester can trap odor-causing bacteria, making your clothes smell bad even when they're clean. Cotton releases odors well when you wash it. This means less "gym scent" and more real freshness.


    5. He is strong, gentle and respectful

    Shocks don't affect it: cotton withstands washing, use, and drying. If it's of good quality—like long-staple cotton—it's even more durable and soft. It's also a natural, renewable, and biodegradable fiber, so you're good for the planet and your skin.


    Why choose 100% cotton?

    100% cotton fabrics guarantee all these benefits. With blends (less than 60%), you lose breathability and softness. So, when you're looking for your summer T-shirt, undershirt, or pajamas at La Muda, choose real cotton to feel the difference.
