    • Natissea


      Natissea was started by Mathilde, a fashion designer in Paris who was really keen to participate in the creation of sustainable and responsible fashion necessary for the preservation of our planet.

      She totally fell in love with hemp because of its quality and its countless natural properties.

      The name Natissea, refers to the necessary and fundamental links that humans "weave" with "nature" in order to "seal" their well-being and fulfilment.

      Natissea was born from a deep desire to protect nature, animals and also the people who will wear our knitwear. Our skin is permeable and soaks up all the substances with which it comes into contact, and this is even more true for toddlers!

      Hemp fibers were the first to be used in antiquity, but their properties remain largely unknown to this day. Hemp helps regulate body temperature in both directions. If its textile use is favoured in the summer period, it is nonetheless used for the insulation of houses, which proves its effectiveness even in the event of extreme cold.

      A thermoregulating, antiperspirant and antibacterial fibre that does not need any chemical treatment to grow, it's possible and for your greatest pleasure, it can be knitted!

      "We defend more sustainable and more natural consumption habits. Natissea offers you a vegan, healthy and cruelty-free option. Because being a committed brand comes first and foremost through action. Our products are made in France. And our packaging is biodegradable and comes from recycled materials. Every day, we step up our efforts to help create a better world."
