A smooth hemp sateen fabric with a clean white surface, subtle luster, and refined natural texture. At approx. 180 GSM, this fabric sits in a versatile light-to-midweight range, making it suitable for breathable garments, soft tailoring, and elegant everyday sewing projects.

How it’s made:

This fabric is woven in a sateen weave, giving it a smoother face and softer surface than a basic plain weave hemp. The hemp yarns add natural strength, breathability, and slight slub character, while the sateen construction creates a more polished handfeel and a gentle, understated sheen.
