Why it's a sustainable product
Recycled Cotton
Recycled cotton is a regenerated cotton fiber obtained from production waste, such as the one you can find in our models (pre-consumer), or from fabrics that have reached the end of their life (post-consumer). The pieces of fabric are sorted by color, shredded into yarn, and then into raw fiber, which is transformed back into yarn.
