Introducing: The Organic Linen Shop

At MATE, we believe what we wear should connect us to the natural world. That’s why our Organic Linen Collection is made with GOTS Certified Organic Linen and non-toxic dyes—better for your skin, better for the planet. Every piece flows with life, capturing moments of both stillness and movement with effortless grace. We like to call it, The Simple Sophistication of Linen.

 

Why We Love Linen

Linen, derived from the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum), is one of the oldest and most beloved natural fibers. Not only is it timeless in its aesthetic, but it also comes with a range of benefits for both your skin and the environment.

Skin-loving & Breathable

Linen’s unique fiber structure wicks moisture away from the body, releases heat, and promotes airflow, making it exceptionally breathable. Naturally hypoallergenic, anti-static, and resistant to bacteria and fungus, Linen is an excellent choice for those with sensitive skin.

Durable & Long-Lasting

Linen is one of the strongest natural fibers, capable of withstanding frequent washing, sunlight, and high temperatures. The best part? It only gets softer with time, making it a long-term investment in both comfort and quality.

Low Water Usage

Unlike other fibers, flax requires minimal irrigation to grow, thriving even in dry, marginal soils. This makes Linen a more water-conscious alternative compared to conventional cotton.

Naturally Chemical-Free

Flax is inherently resilient and requires little to no pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. Organic Linen farming prioritizes soil health and biodiversity, reducing harmful agricultural impacts.

Biodegradable & Earth-Friendly

Linen is 100% biodegradable, breaking down naturally over time—unlike synthetic fabrics, which can linger in landfills for centuries. Choosing Linen means choosing a circular, waste-free approach to fashion.

Efficient Land Use

Flax is a low-maintenance crop that grows in diverse soil conditions, requiring less land than cotton and making it a more mindful choice for textiles.

Better for Your Skin, Better for the Planet.
