OUR WAY TO SUSTAINABILITY

Why we have choosen certified Organic Cotton for T-shirts and Hats? Because nothing feels better than organic cotton; it’s soft, it breathes and it feels just as good on your conscience as it does on your skin. Although it comes from a plant, conventionally grown cotton is actually very un-natural. According to sources conventional cotton crops are doused each year in millions of pounds of chemicals found in synthetic fertilizers, soil additives and defoliants. These substances wreak havoc on soil, water, air, and all sorts of ecosystems, including human ones. That’s a big price to pay for cotton.

Why we have choosen Recycled Nylon for our Swim Shorts? Econyl is a form of nylon that is made entirely from waste products. It is made from a range of post-consumer waste including abandoned fishing nets, plastic bottles, carpets and rigid textiles and aims to be a green alternative to the original product which is made from a derivative of oil. A relatively new product, Econyl launched in 2011 and it’s made by italian brand Aquafil Global, a leading manufacturer of Nylon.
