The poncho is the most important handcrafted product of the Latin American continent, made with processes and techniques passed down from generation to generation. Its beauty has become so appreciated that it is now worn all over the world. Our poncho is machine-woven and the fringes are finished by hand.
We stand for sustainability and the socio-economic development of South America.
Products made by TASHAY are 100% sustainable, as they are made exclusively from natural fibres, so their environmental impact is well below industry standards. Cotton in the region is grown by small farmers using only safe tools.
The cotton is bought directly by the Warmi Sayajsunqo Association in north-west Argentina under fair-trade conditions, and the community uses the profits from the textiles sold to fund health, resource management, craft and education projects. In this way we support thousands of families and many small businesses.
Light – skin-friendly – durable – very heat-resistant
Cotton is highly elastic, gentle on the skin and does not scratch. It is also a durable, stretchy fibre, ideal for the warmer seasons.
