Re:Nylon
Prada has always used nylon as a main material. The brand's ’84 debut of Pocone in its bag-and-accessory line won it worldwide acclaim. Miuccia Prada expanded the collection to include nylon dresses for her own label and Linea Rossa, the nylon-heavy, buzzbeast-ready diffusion range that Frank Ocean recently dressed himself in for the Met Gala. The Milan-based powerhouse has changed its iconic nylon bags into eco-friendly recycled nylon fabrics. The new collection includes six classic styles: bags for belts (pictured) as well as shoulder bags (pictured), bags for totes (pictured) as well as duffle bag (pictured) and two backpacks made of repurposed ECONYL fabrics that are made from recycled plastics and fishing nets.
The material that is recycled is the result of a partnership with Aquafil, a textile yarn manufacturer in Italy that makes Econyl fabric using recycled nylon waste. This fabric can be recycled many times without losing its quality. The Business of Fashion reports that the repurposed fabric is part of a larger plan to transition Prada's entire portfolio from virgin nylon to Re:Nylon by 2021. In addition to the six Re:Nylon bags, the collection also includes a pair boots and shoes constructed from recycled ECONYL, as well as various apparel items made of the same fabrication.
To celebrate the launch, Prada partnered with National Geographic to create a series of videos called "What We Carry" that exposes the cutting-edge technology which is used to make Re:Nylon bags. The first video includes Bonnie Wright, an environmentalist and Harry Potter actress, as well as National Geographic explorer Asher Jay visiting a carpet recycling facility in Arizona that converts old nylon into repurposed ECONYL.
The Business of Fashion reports that Prada's switch to re-Nylon is the largest reduction in virgin nylon to date. It will save 70 000 barrels of crude oil every year. This move will also lower the carbon emissions of the company by about 57,000 tonnes. It's the latest sustainability effort by the label that recently went fur-free in its clothing and accessories, which was applauded by both environmentalists and animal rights activists alike.
Recycled nylon
While it may be better for the environment than nylon, recycled nylon has its own drawbacks. It's not biodegradable, and will remain in oceans or landfills for a long time until it is broken down into smaller pieces that could cause harm to wildlife. The fabric is also non-breathable and can shed microplastics when washed. However, it requires 50% less energy to produce compared to regular virgin nylon and
shop is more durable than other bag materials like cotton or wool.
The fabric is made of a combination of petroleum and waste plastic that is made by burning fossil fuels. This reduces both the need for more natural resources as well as carbon emissions from production of virgin nylon. It is also easier to handle than other bag materials because it doesn't have to be dyed or woven. This makes it a great option for bags that are going to be used regularly, such as gym and yoga gear.
Recycled nylon is stronger and more flexible than polyester or cotton, which are both traditional fabrics. It is also able to withstand a lot of abuse and makes it ideal for backpacks and other outdoor equipment. It is light and can easily be shaped and stitched to the desired shape of the backpack. Nylon is a great material for outdoor gear because it's resistant to water and doesn't absorb odors.
When choosing a sustainable bag, make sure to look for the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification. This certification is a test for chemical residues as well as environmental and social responsibility. Look for brands with this certification because they are likely to be more transparent and
huenhue.net accountable in their product offerings.
Patagonia is a good example. It has a variety of yoga equipment and backpacks that are made of recycled nylon, which is known as Econyl. This nylon is created in a closed-loop system that uses 50% less energy than regular virgin nylon. In addition, the brand is a partner with organisations that work to save our planet.
