THE COTTON STORY
Founded in 2015 by Syëd, in Great Britain, The Cotton® London was born out of a desire to design and produce the world’s finest cotton clothing brand for men – the ultimate in quality and luxury with minimalist design and with a consideration for sustainability in every element of the supply chain.
OUR FOUNDER
Syëd has always been interested in and appreciative of good quality menswear. However what really got him intrigued by the world of cotton was the fact that 2700 litres of fresh water is used up to create a single T-shirt. People own so many T-shirts, and they usually are cheaper than a sandwich which does not seem quite right. This started his quest for answers and his idea for a sustainable minimalist design luxurious cotton clothing brand was born.
A technology consultant by day, and entrepreneur by night—Syëd has built his online brand through his unflinching dedication and willingness to put in the time to learn something new. His absence of formal training of the fashion industry has enabled him to learn on the go, through sheer grit, hard work and life experiences. He believes this is an on-going process and each day is an opportunity to learn more and explore more. He has travelled the globe in search of the very best fabrications, quality manufactures ensuring our products are truly finest, easy to care for, wonderfully durable and made to last.
