Goldline Extra Long Staple Cotton

Goldline is the highest level Thomas Mason service programe in 2/140s yarn count, which was created originally for the company’s bicentenary (1796-1996) celebrations. Over the last ten years, the collection has been renewed several times and the new edition was further enriched by refined, tradition-based creative research and use of the finest raw materials.

Egypt’s finest cotton, ‘Giza 45’, is used for Thomas Mason’s Goldline.
The particular climatic conditions and fertile soils along the Nile and around the delta gives rise to the finest cotton in the world. Egypt is currently the world’s leading producer of long fibre (>1 and 1/4 inch) and very long fibre (>1 and 3/8 inch), the famous ‘long and extra long staple’ cotton.

Highly acclaimed ‘Giza 45’ is grown in Kafir S’Ad, a small area to the east of the Nile delta, and represents 0.4% of Egypt’s total annual cotton production: just 19,200 of the total 4,539,111 metric cantars (the unit of measurement for cotton corresponding roughly to 50 kg). These fibres make it possible to achieve the fineness, lustre and softness of the best shirt fabrics.
