World Cotton Day – 7th October 2025
Long before fashion was an industry and clothing became commerce, cotton was already a part of Sri Lanka’s soul.
When King Vijaya first arrived on these shores, legend says he saw Kuweni, of the Yakka tribe, seated at her loom under the island sun – weaving cotton into culture. That moment wasn’t just myth. It was the start of something that still lives on.
At Moose Clothing Company, we don’t just work with cotton – we honour it.
Because cotton is more than a fabric. It’s a story. A thread that runs through generations, connecting craft, community, and comfort.
From the ancient handlooms to today’s high-tech factories, cotton continues to power Sri Lanka’s apparel industry, one of the biggest contributors to the Sri Lankan Export Economy (SEY). It sustains thousands of lives, fuels creativity, and carries Sri Lanka’s name to the world – one garment at a time.
At Moose, we use cotton not only because it’s soft, breathable, and versatile – but because it’s part of who we are. We believe in creating clothes that feel good, look great, and respect the journey of the material itself.
So today, on World Cotton Day, we celebrate the fiber that shaped us.
The fabric that moves with you. The one that’s always been there.
This is not just cotton. This is Moose.
Woven with pride. Designed for you. Made for every day.
