With its distinctive melange colorway that’s the result of recycling our own cutting waste and an accent back seam, the Cotton T-Shirt / Re-Spun makes the process visible in the final garment.
Together, 25% recycled black Supima cotton and 25% recycled white Supima cotton from our Cotton T-Shirt production, and 50% white organic cotton result in a distinctive melange colorway that represents its composition: Re-Spun Grey. The heavy-weight fabric at 200 g/m2 is complemented by 2x2 ribs for a relaxed look and feel. The accent back seam emerges from optimizing how the pattern is cut to reduce waste, again reflecting the production process and turning it into a design feature.
Your Cotton T-Shirt / Re-Spun is made to order, made to fit, and made to last in Portugal
Made from 50 percent recycled Supima cotton sourced directly from our own production. Even with a made to order model, small fabric remnants are unavoidable. Instead of passing them on, we collected nearly a year’s worth of cutting waste, shredded it with our partner, and spun it back into new yarn. The result is a durable, high quality T-Shirt where the recycling process is not hidden but built into the story of the garment itself.
