Rubbish London
100% Recycled Cotton Fitted Sweatshirt
Description
This Sweatshirt is made from 100% Recycled Cotton which is a mixture of pre and post consumer Cotton Waste. The Cotton is separated by colour, mechanically shredded and rewoven into a new recycled Cotton fabric. We add no virgin fibres to the Recycled Cotton.
Each Sweatshirt comes with our branded QR Code attached which allocates a free shipping returns label to use when you no longer wear your sweatshirt. The garment is either resold via our charity partner Re-Dress or recycled again.
Producing just this one sweatshirt has saved the equivalent of 6 years drinking water for one person and producing just 500 would save enough water to fill an olympic size swimming pool vs Organic Cotton.
Sustainability though doesn't mean you compromise of comfort, style or fit. Our recycled cotton fleece is super soft and has a relaxed fit. Perfect for layering in the winter months or to wear alone in the summer.
The benefits to the environment of recycled cotton are what really makes this product stand out from the crowd.

Due to the nature of the material and weakness of recycled cotton fibres imperfections may be found in the fabric. We think this adds to the authenticity of the product making each one unique.
