Organic Cotton Clothing
Great selection of Organic Cotton Clothes
COTTON is referred to as Organic Cotton when the growers and manufacturers follow strict guidelines by the National 
Organic Standards Board. All phases of production from growing in richer soil to reduce the necessity for chemical pesticides - to processing it into usable fabric – are inspected and certified. The numerous benefits of organic cotton begin with the purity of the fibers and dyes which produce an excellent choice for people with any kind of skin allergies or other health problems.
Certified Organic Cotton • Crop-to-Garment • USA
From Texas Fields to Finished Apparel
SOS From Texas is one of the rare U.S. crop-to-garment operations — growing certified organic cotton on their own Texas farms and carrying that cotton through the supply chain into finished apparel. This farm-to-fabric approach prioritizes traceability and quality by starting with cotton they grow themselves.
Organic Cotton Certification
The cotton grown by SOS From Texas is certified organic by the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) under the USDA National Organic Program (7 CFR Part 205).

Note: “USDA Organic” here refers to the certified organic cotton and farm operation. Finished-garment labeling depends on how the full manufacturing chain is certified.
Why isn’t this garment labeled “USDA Organic” if it’s made from organic cotton?
USDA Organic certification can apply to agricultural materials (like cotton) and to the processing/handling chain. While the cotton in this garment is certified organic, using “USDA Organic” as a finished-garment claim typically requires the key handling and manufacturing steps (for example: ginning, spinning, fabric production, and cut-and-sew) to be certified under the USDA National Organic Program as well. If any one of those is not organic certified, the garment cannot be labelled with the USDA Organic.
Many responsible textile facilities are not certified under USDA organic handling rules, even when they work with certified organic cotton. We prefer to be completely transparent about what “organic” means at each step — starting with the certified organic cotton itself.
What about undyed, unbleached fabric — does that change anything?
Using undyed, unbleached cotton can reduce chemical processing, which we love — but USDA organic labeling is still primarily about certified chain-of-custody through handling/processing steps. So the absence of dyes doesn’t automatically make the finished garment eligible for “USDA Organic” labeling unless the required operations are certified where applicable.
This garment has a small amount of non-organic material (thread / neck tag). Is that allowed?
Minor components like sewing thread, labels, and trims are common in apparel and can be compatible with organic-content standards depending on the labeling category and applicable rules. In our case, the organic claim we make is focused on the certified organic cotton used in the garment.
Should we show the USDA Organic seal on this product page?
To avoid confusion, we do not use the USDA Organic seal as a finished-garment badge on this product page unless the full garment supply chain is certified for that use. Instead, we document and link the farm-level organic certification (Organic Integrity Database verification) so you can confirm the certified organic cotton origin.
If you’d like, we can also add a separate “About Our Organic Cotton” section (away from the Buy Box) where the USDA seal is shown clearly as a farm/cotton certification reference — without implying the garment itself is certified.
