These guys are not snorkeling around : )) they are actually an international charity and global diving team specialized in ghostgear cleanups. They literally clean up our oceans by diving and picking up trash (mostly fishnets). Helping to rescue and recover marine life! You can check them up here:
Collected fishnets and other plastic waste, are cut and dried. Ready to be delivered and regenerated into nylon yarn called ECONYL® nylon. Regenerated nylon process helps to reduce 80% of global warming impact compared with the nylon produced from oil!
Big brands, like Stella McCartney, Adidas and Speedo, Levi's or Breitling, have been used ECONYL® nylon and I could guess the main reason are the prices. The fabrics made from ECONYL® nylon not cheap, but they are simply EXPLOSIVE! Personally, I support it and totally agree with it, since a sustainable chain should follow a fair price for everybody.
I believe a sustainable fashion culture is based on a fair market, balanced by work recognition and the added value to the world. And that is balancing our behavior as consumers, supporting sustainable fashion brands. It’s impossible not to be more positive about how the world is changing when you see final products like this:
Cheers!
