Braintree launch hemp/ 'fur jacket A modern-styled light denim jacket is the new addition to Braintrees expanding range of hemp clothing

Braintree have launched a new range of hemp clothing. Complimenting their existing range, these new styles are set to cause a fuss. Topping the range is a light denim jacket with fake fur lining. The hemp jacket with style is styled as part of the Ladies range and comes with or without sleeves.

Full length hemp/cotton and hemp/ rayon skirts also seem to be a very popular addition to the Ladies wear. Whilst the men do not miss out with the new style 'over-shirts to complement the already best-selling hemp/ rayon long and short-sleeve shirts.
