Organic cotton tops made for what sits closest to your skin
Tops are among the pieces we wear directly on our skin for hours at a time. That is why the fabric matters to us.
Our organic cotton tops include tank tops, tees, long sleeves, bra tops and soft layers designed for everyday wear and movement. Depending on the style, they are made from 100% organic cotton or organic cotton with a small amount of elastane for comfortable stretch and shape retention.
The finished organic-cotton pieces — not only the cotton fiber — are GOTS-certified and produced according to the requirements of the GOTS standard. Each product page shows the exact fiber composition, so you always know what you are wearing.
A softer alternative to synthetic-heavy tops
Many active and everyday tops are made mainly from polyester, nylon or other synthetic fibers. At Orbasics, organic cotton forms the foundation of this collection.
It gives the fabric its soft, breathable feel and makes these pieces easy to wear throughout the day — whether you are layering a long sleeve, moving through yoga, wearing a tank on warmer days or simply looking for comfortable everyday basics.
Some styles are made from 100% organic cotton, while others contain a small percentage of elastane where stretch is needed. That is why we do not make blanket “plastic-free” claims across the collection. Instead, we show the exact composition of every piece.
What we mean by low-tox clothing
When clothing sits directly against your skin, transparency around fibers, dyes and textile finishes becomes especially important.
The organic-cotton products in this collection are GOTS-certified as finished products and produced according to the GOTS standard. According to our material and production specifications, the fabrics are PFAS-free, use azo-free dyes and receive no formaldehyde finishes.
Rather than making absolute “toxin-free” promises, we prefer to tell you exactly what we use, which standards apply and which treatments we avoid.
From organic cotton tank tops to long sleeves
Build an easy wardrobe around the pieces you wear most. Choose from racerback tanks, tees, fitted long sleeves, bra tops and soft layers in solid colours and Orbasics prints.
Wear them on their own, layer them throughout the seasons or pair them with our organic cotton leggings.
