Kee-Ka..Ohh so soft organic cotton

I just recently received two adorable t-shirts from Kee-Ka for the boys. At Kee-Ka all of their stuff is made from organic cotton.

What is organic cotton?
Organic cotton starts with organic farming practices, which use seeds that haven’t been genetically modified or treated with pesticides. Pest control is accomplished through the use of natural predators and other natural practices. From growth through harvest, the process is monitored according to a set of Organic Growing Standards adopted by governmental bodies.

Is organic cotton softer and more durable?
Since organic cotton plants aren’t bombarded with toxic chemicals they tend to produce longer fibers, which yield stronger yarn and more durable fabrics. Pesticide-free long cotton fiber also feels softer, more breathable and luxurious against the skin.

I am extremely picky when it comes to clothing for the boys. I am one who has to touch and feel the stuff before I buy it. I hate clothing that has a chemical smell, clothes that are scratchy and irritating to the skin, and one’s that don’t feel any softer after you wash them. This is what makes the clothes from Kee-Ka so appealing. Not only that, organic cotton is gentle on the skin, there are no harsh chemicals. This is definitely a plus for young sensitive skin.

The boy’s shirts came in the cutest little boxes. Kee-Ka’s trademarked little brown boxes are made from recycled paper and are designed so you can easily mail a Kee-Ka gift to your favorite baby: The box lid has flaps that you pull out, moisten and seal to the bottom of the box. Then, you simply address the box, add stamps and drop it in the mail! They even tell you the amount of postage you will need to mail one in the USA.

At Kee-Ka they believe in crafting fashionable products in socially and ecologically responsible ways: using 100% certified organic cotton and low-impact dyes, as well as working with Fair Trade and Fair Wage suppliers around the world.

These two shirts have easily become favorites of mine. They are so soft and the boys love being in them. I have washed them 2 times already and they come out beautifully. The boys love to snuggle up on the couch and watch t.v in their diapers and tiger and monkey t-shirts ($24) from Kee-Ka. So sweet!

I would definitely recommend something from Kee-Ka for your special little someone, or as a special gift. For a limited time Kee-Ka is offering DoubleBugs 15% of your entire purchase. Just enter the coupon code DBUGSWEB at checkout. Offer valid until September 15, 2008.
