Our Philosophy
At AXIS, fabric isn’t just material—it’s the foundation of every garment. Our selection process is rigorous, guided by a simple question: How can this fabric enhance your everyday life? Whether it’s staying cool in the boardroom or comfortable on the golf course, we prioritize innovative, functional fabrics that deliver exceptional performance without compromising on style.
The Best of Both Worlds
Bamboo for Dress Shirts
The popularity of bamboo garments is growing as an eco-friendly alternative to cotton, and there is a valid reason why...
Some fibres are just naturally better than others, and we've made the conscious decision to use Bamboo for the following reasons:
- Silky smooth: Bamboo fibres are inherently smooth, which allows creates a dress shirt that is insanely soft.
- Resistant to creases: Unlike the typical anti-wrinkle cotton shirts, bamboo is naturally resistant to creases without the help of chemicals.
- Anti-bacterial: A natural component in bamboo, Kun, actively resists growth of icky bacteria. With bamboo, we nolonger have to worry about nasty odours.
- Breathability: We live in HK, so we know how hot it can get during the summer season. A bamboo fabric helps keep you surprisingly cool when it's hot out as it's extremely breathable.
- Sustainability: Unlike other materials that require harsh chemicals and pesticides to grow, bamboo is a fast-growing plant (~8 weeks to reach their maximum height) that requires very little water, no pesticides, and no fertilizers. In the time it takes for the bamboo to be processed into an Axis dress shirt, there's already a new shoot in its place.
