We\u2019re proud to say that, while we\u2019re not perfect, every day we take small steps towards ensuring that mindfulness remains a core value at Nicobar.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nicobar now uses organic cotton and 50% recycled wool to produce the clothing line. The brand stated, \u201c\u2063Virgin\u2019 wool production is land and water intensive which requires energy, water, and chemicals to turn the shorn fleece into the clean dyed fibre. But \u2063\u2063recycled wool doesn\u2019t require any of this. It is a comparatively lower-impact process, saving water, eliminating resulting wastewater, and also uses significantly less energy than what is required to produce new fabrics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking about organic cotton, the brand said it is being used to craft all the core clothing including t-shirts for now and will further work to expand this across all clothing <a href=\"http:\/\/172.105.37.82\/topic\/collection\">collections<\/a>. \u201cWe\u2019re continuing to expand our use of organic cotton into many of the styles we offer,\u201d concluded the brand.<\/p>\n<p>\u2063\u2063<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWe get asked about when the next, next, next collections are coming, but we consciously choose to only make smaller<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":1039,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3],"tags":[2130,1912,2142,347],"yst_prominent_words":[107,265,1266,2137,2139,2135,340,1097,171,2132,2134,2131,2141,2138,2133,686,2140,1526,2136],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/indiacityblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1038"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/indiacityblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/indiacityblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/indiacityblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/indiacityblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1038"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/indiacityblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1038\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/indiacityblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1039"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/indiacityblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1038"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/indiacityblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1038"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/indiacityblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1038"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/indiacityblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=1038"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
