Canvas Fabric

Organic canvas fabric from Lebens­kleidung - extra strong and sturdy

The fact that the Canvas fabric has something to do with cannabis is probably not to be considered common knowledge. The popular cotton fabric was originally once a hemp tissue and was first given the name "Canevas", which in turn goes back to the Latin "cannabis".

Previously woven by hand and flattened with the hammer, today's cotton Canvas fabric is made by machine. The thread is alternately pulled from the front and back by pre-tensioned warp threads creating a very rigid fabric, which is always used when it should be particularly robust and durable.
