9 jackets made almost entirely from recycled plastic
Everlane, a clothing brand that prides itself on its radical transparency and use of ethical factories, is now doing its part to help the environment.
Beginning on Wednesday, the company is rolling out a new outerwear line, called ReNew, made of recycled plastic.
According to an open letter from Everlane's founder, Michael Preysman, 99 percent of each ReNew product is made from discarded plastic bottles; the only parts that aren't are the zippers and trims, which he stated cannot be sourced from recycled materials at this point.
"ReNew also marks our commitment: to eliminate all virgin plastic from our supply chain by 2021. That includes our products. Our warehouses. Even our offices and stores," Preysman wrote. "We know we’re only a small piece of the global puzzle. But together, we can make a big impact."
