Choosing Your Cloud Tracksuit Fabric

The fabric you choose will have a big impact on the silhouette and feel of your Cloud tracksuit. We designed this pattern for knit fabrics, with our incredibly cosy GOTS certified Organic Cotton Sweatshirting and matching Rib fabric range in mind! GOTS is the international gold standard in organic textile certifications, and we’re proud to say that our exclusive 100% Organic Cotton ranges are GOTS certified by the independent auditing body Control Union [1146287].

Organic cotton growing also uses only organic-approved fertilisers, herbicides and pesticides from plants, animals and minerals, decreasing your likelihood of exposure to unhealthy chemicals, as well as protecting farmers and workers, and their lands within the cotton production system.

All of the mills involved in the making of our Organic Cotton ranges are certified to GOTS and Bluesign, as well as environmental accreditations FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and OEKO-Tex Standard 100.

Our GOTS Organic Sweatshirting is a heavyweight pure cotton knit sweatshirting, thick and sumptuous for year-round lounging styles. This Turkish-made sweatshirting has been knitted with a smooth face and a loopback reverse which has been brushed to create a fleece finish. It's a luxuriously soft and cosy knit with a matt finish, minimal mechanical stretch and completely opaque. A dream fabric for tracksuits!

One of the best things about this GOTS Organic Cotton range is that every colour comes in matching rib! This non-tubular rib is also a heavyweight pure cotton, made in the same mill as our sweatshirting. It's knitted with a 3x1 face and a 1x1 reverse, creating a flatter finish on the reverse and ribbed face. This clever structure gives the rib extra stability and density creating a fully opaque fabric with slight mechanical width stretch, a dry hand feel and matt finish. Perfect for matching trims!

Being machine washable means garments made with these GOTS Organic Cotton fabrics are easy to care for too! Hooray! We recommend separating your colours and washing with cool or warm water and a gentle detergent for optimal longevity.

This dreamy fabric range is available in loads of tracksuit-worthy colours, browse our full range in your nearest store or online here!

Cloud also looks and feels amazing in our ZQ Premium Merino, which lends the pattern a chic yet casual drapey silhouette. Our ZQ Premium Merino range is ethically produced and comes in a wide array of colours, including Tumeric, Vintage Blush, Guava and Olive (pictured below). You can find our ZQ Premium Merino range in all stores, including our Online Store.

We're also loving Cloud in boiled or knitted wools, which lend the tracksuit a sculptural feel and clean finish. Frankie wears Cloud in Boiled Wool/Nylon blend in Terracotta below, which gives the perfect amount of soft structure for the Funnel Neck Sweatshirt option!

It's a rare occasion that we have merino sweatshirtings in stock, they're super popular and hard to come by! A handful of brushed options are available in stores and online now.

Brushed Merino Sweatshirting colours featured below from top to bottom are Ice Mint, Aquamarine, Almond Marle, Grey Marle and Night Sky.
