Clothing made of recycled polyester
The advantage of recycled polyester is that no new polyester (made from petroleum) is produced, which consumes raw materials and energy and causes emissions. In addition, the waste mountain is reduced and/or the oceans are cleaner.
Recycled polyester is very elastic, dries quickly (useful for sports and swimwear) and can be completely waterproof when used for rainwear, for example.
For clothing such as blouses and shirts, we always prefer not to use polyester but organic cotton, Lyocell or linen. But rainwear, swimwear and tights need the functionality of polyester. For these categories, you will find items made from recycled polyester at Sophie Stone.
