We’ve been doing everything we can to stay afloat. But with rising costs and an uncertain economy in the years since the pandemic, we’ve had to make the heartbreaking decision to close two of our stores. And now, unless things change quickly, we’re at risk of closing more.

Cotton Basics has been a proud part of the Bay Area community for over 40 years. Since 1982, we’ve designed and manufactured clothing made from natural fibers, all domestically produced and community-rooted.

Cotton Basics has thrived for 40 years with nothing but word of mouth — no advertising, no marketing. But the world has changed. With so many people shopping online, our brick-and-mortar model can’t survive on local foot traffic alone.
