What is Monki clothing made of?
Based on our analysis of 50 Monki products, the average garment is 61.6% natural fibre. The most common single fibre is Cotton (in 58% of products). The remaining material is typically synthetic — polyester, polyamide, or acrylic.
Is Monki cotton?
Sometimes — cotton appears in 58% of the 50 Monki products we analyzed, but it's usually blended with synthetics. Only 36% of items are nearly all-natural (95%+ natural fibre), so check the composition before assuming a piece is pure cotton.
Is Monki 100% cotton?
Some pieces are. Of the 50 Monki products we analyzed, 18 are 100% cotton (or near-pure, 95%+) — that's 36.0% of the catalog. The rest are blends.
How much polyester does Monki use?
24% of Monki products are polyester-heavy, meaning polyester makes up 50% or more of the garment. This is below average for fast fashion retailers.
Is Monki mostly synthetic?
24% of Monki products are polyester-heavy (50%+ polyester). Average natural fibre content is 61.6%, so the rest of the catalog is mostly natural-led.
Does Monki use natural fabrics?

Is Monki sustainable in terms of fabric?
Fabric composition is one factor in sustainability. With an average of 61.6% natural fibre, Monki is better than many competitors on this measure. Natural fibres generally biodegrade and shed fewer microplastics than synthetics.
