Pima Cotton originated in Peru with the Pima Indians. Pusser’ s designed Pima Cotton sweaters are knitted in Peru using authentic Peruvian gown Pima Cotton. The longer the staple of cotton, the better the quality of the product. For those who like numbers, Pima Cotton measure between 1.4 to 2 inches in length while sall other short staple cotton fibers measure up to 1.1 inches. Pima cotton knits and fabric come out softer and more durable than if they were to be made from a shorter staple cotton. Additionally, because of the softness of this fabric, Pima is ideal for people who have sensitive skin. Due to its log fibers, Pima Cotton has gained a reputation for producing a smooth fabric that is soft to the touch, resistance to fraying, tearing, pilling, wrinkling and fading. It is said that Pima Cotton has a 50 percent longer life expectancy than other cotton products.
