Cotton the First was founded on the belief that timeless fashion deserves a modern fit. Designed for those who appreciate quality and versatility, our slim-fit pieces—hard to find in regular stores—offer a refined, city-inspired aesthetic. Each design is produced in limited runs of just 100 pieces, with our founder personally visiting the factory to ensure exceptional craftsmanship.
Featured in the San Francisco Chronicle for repurposing shirts into masks and donating over $6,000 to the city, we have also been recognized as an emerging brand in Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s incubator programs.
Since 2018, our philosophy has remained simple: fewer but better pieces—quality over quantity, always.
