An Italian Master roll, of course. What's your roll? Basic, Casual, or the Master?
Charles S, Designer and Founder of Cotton the First
Until April of 2020, Charles has been designing shirts, but then his life changed since the release of his face masks. A sewing machine is now his new best friend as he cuts and sews every single mask for you. The design you see here is unlike other masks, the mask keeps structure and it’s so durable and loved by the community across the US.
On May 13th, 2020, Charles’ initiative was featured in San Francisco Chronicles, you can read more here.
At over 1,500 masks in, 750+ hours spent, $4500 donated to Give2SF Relief Fund, ACLU, and SF Pride. He always gives everything he does his very best. He adds, “We will get back to wearing our cool button down shirts out and about again. But for now, I want to help and this is how I’m helping.”
