The folks at Econscious are now producing items from Hemp. So let’s take a look at this Hemp Washed Soft Mesh Trucker.
The Hemp Washed Soft Mesh Trucker follows the basic trucker design, with a front that is 55% hemp and 45% cotton, with the back mesh material made from 100% recycled polyester.
There are six colors available, Olive/Oyster (shown), Navy/Oyster, Earth/Oyster (shown), Black/Oyster, Charcoal/Black, and Black/Black. And they are pricey, at $22 per unit. As a reference, an organic cotton cap normally runs closer to $5-$8 range, with an imprint.
But they are the only folks that seem to have a hemp cap, and honestly, with the explosion in related marketing for marijuana, and CBD oils and products, they have a large market to service, as everyone is looking for promotional items they feel they can tie in with the new industry. Econscious is also doing hemp grocery totes and pouches, but so far not tees or other wearables.
I will say the quality and feel of the cap is very much like a premium fashion cap, and people will be able to tell that these are not your basic trucker caps.
If you are interested in hemp caps to promote your own business, or to get a sample, email info@proformagreen.com for information and pricing.
And as always, if you really want to do something sustainable, do not buy promotional products. All products are consumption at one level or another. So if you must buy, 1) Buy local (i.e. made in USA), 2) Buy useful, long lasting items, 3) Buy sustainable/recycled/recyclable products if possible.
