Circular circulose

Levi’s has launched its most sustainable jean ever, made with organic cotton and Circulose®, a breakthrough material made from worn-out jeans. It represents more than five years of research in circular denim design and a collaboration between Levi’s® Wellthread™ (the laboratory to test and validate sustainability ideas through research and development), and re:newcell, the innovators behind Circulose®. It also marks a significant milestone in the fashion industry’s transition to circularity. Its like-for-like fibre input means the garment can itself be recycled through existing chemical recycling processes. To make Circulose®, re:newcell repurposes discarded cotton textiles, such as worn-out denim jeans, through a process akin to recycling paper.

The jeans are designed in a way that maximises recyclability so they can be regenerated into new jeans again. This means each part of the jean–such as the trims and threads–is carefully calibrated to ensure it meets recycling specifications, allowing it to have a second life when it’s worn out.

Yep, you read that correctly, though these are meant for putting glasses on rather than carrying. Deadly Ponies
