Why We Chose Ramie — A Fiber with Quiet Strength

In a world of excess, we chose a material that speaks softly yet lasts long.

Some materials speak louder than others. Ours doesn’t shout — it simply endures.

When we began shaping Lathr®, we wanted each product to feel honest. Not polished to perfection, but crafted with purpose. That search led us to Ramie — a plant fiber known for its quiet resilience and delicate texture.

Ramie isn’t new. It’s one of the oldest natural fibers known to humankind — strong, breathable, and kind to the skin. What drew us to it wasn’t just its history, but its tactility — the way it feels between your fingers, firm yet forgiving.

In a bath ritual, Ramie becomes more than a material. It’s a texture that grounds you — turning something as ordinary as a shower into a mindful moment. That’s the kind of beauty we believe in: unhurried, understated, and real.

At Lathr®, we’re not here to sell perfection. We’re here to offer honest care — objects made with intention, designed to last, and shaped by natural rhythm. Ramie simply became the fabric that carried that belief forward.

A quiet fiber, a steady ritual, a brand built on feel — that’s where Lathr® begins.
