Composition: 100% RPET Chiffon, 90% Eco-friendly Polyamide, 10% Eco-friendly Elastane

Our RPET is from postconsumer plastic bottles, processed through a mechanical, not chemical, process and spun into yarn in Italy - all traceable. With our unique fabrication, the material is super soft, 100% recycled, anti-UV, fast drying, antibacterial and hypoallergenic, certified by GRS (Global Recycle Standards by Textile Exchange) and Oeko Tex. RPET requires significantly less energy, releases 65% less carbon dioxide and requires 90% less water than normal polyester. All PET used is rescued from the waters of the world and are Global Recycle Standard Certified. Read more about our RPET here. Our polyamide and elastane are made from castor-beans and is not only 100% natural and chemical-free, but also very resilient. Taking natural properties from the plant it is sourced from, bio-based polyamide and elastane are very fast-drying and absorb moisture very well. They are also very lightweight, super stretchy and very comfortable. They have a soft touch finish and a perfect fit.

Care guide: Wash at 30°, iron on low, do not bleach, do not tumble dry. Or take to specialist dry-cleaner.
