Recycled Ocean Bound Plastics Better for the Planet: Recycled polyester gives you the same technical performance you get in virgin polyester, with a vastly smaller footprint. What’s more, it can be recycled again and again, without significantly degrading in quality. It provides a valuable use for post-consumer and post-industrial plastic (which may otherwise end up floating endlessly in our oceans), and weakens our dependency on petroleum as the raw material for our apparel needs.
Organic Cotton Better for the Planet: YES, Organically grown cotton is significantly better for the planet than conventional cotton. Conventional cotton is one of the most chemically intensive crops globally, whereas organic farming protects ecosystems, uses less water, and lowers greenhouse gas emissions.
Recycled Ocean Bound Plastics Better for You: It takes roughly twelve (12) post-consumer plastic bottles to make a t-shirt. Those bottles are shredded into flakes, melted into pellets, spun into yarn, and then knitted into apparel. The result is a super soft t-shirt that you can wear proudly for many years to come.
Organic Cotton Better for You: Organic Cotton is substantially better for “you” because it is grown without toxic synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or formaldehyde-based treatments.
