Why we chose REPREVE® Material for our Bags

Why we chose REPREVE® Material for our Bags

We’re using recycled material in our bags, but certified recycled polyester is actually difficult to source.

Luckily, there’s a traceable solution to ensure our material comes from single-use plastic bottles by working with REPREVE®.

Their performance yarn has its own traceable footprint, achieved through a process called FiberPrint® technology.

During preparation, a special additive is introduced that can be measured later, allowing us to test our fabric to fully confirm its composition and sourcing, which customers can do too.

All this without sacrificing quality or durability. Our bags are made from materials used by brands like Levi's, Nike, and The North Face.

Check the REPREVE website for a counter of how many plastic bottles they have recycled—it’s in the billions and goes up by 4,300 every minute.

We don’t just talk about environmental responsibility; we take steps to closely limit the impact our bags have on the earth.

This material not only reduces our carbon footprint but also keeps bottles out of the oceans and landfills.

Maybe check the tag on the next product you buy and make sure they can confirm the sourcing of their recycled materials?
