Re:Nylon
Nylon has long been a crucial material for Prada. The brand's ’84 debut of Pocone in its bag-and-accessory line received worldwide praise. Miuccia Prada expanded the collection to include nylon dresses for her own label as well as Linea Rossa, the nylon-heavy collection that buzzbeast-ready Frank Ocean recently dressed himself in at the Met Gala. The Milan-based brand has reimagined its iconic nylon bags by transforming them into sustainable re:Nylon fabric. The new collection includes six classic styles: one belt bag (pictured), shoulder bag (pictured), the tote bag (pictured) as well as a duffle bag (pictured) and two backpacks - in repurposed ECONYL fabrics that are made from recycled plastics and fishing nets.
The recycled material is the result of a partnership with Aquafil, a textile yarn manufacturer in Italy which produces Econyl fabric made from recycled nylon waste. The fabric can be recycled many times without losing its quality. The Business of Fashion reports that the repurposed material is part of a larger plan to transition Prada's entire portfolio from virgin nylon to Re:Nylon by 2021. The collection includes six new Re:Nylon handbags and a pair of ECONYL shoes and boots, and a selection of clothing made of the same material.
Prada and National Geographic produced a series "What We Carry", an online series that focuses on the innovative process used to create Re:Nylon bags. The first video is a collaboration between Harry Potter actress and environmentalist Bonnie Wright and National Geographic explorer Asher Jay touring an Arizona carpet recycling facility that transforms old nylon into recycled ECONYL.
With the shift to re:Nylon, Prada is undergoing its biggest reduction in virgin nylon use yet, saving 70 000 barrels of oil every year, The Business of Fashion reports. The move will also cut the carbon emissions of the company by around 57,000 tonnes. The label has recently gone fur-free on its clothes and accessories. This is the latest sustainability initiative.
Recycled Nylon
Although it's better for the environment than nylon, recycled nylon has its own drawbacks. It's not biodegradable. It will remain in oceans or landfills until it breaks down into smaller pieces that could harm wildlife. The fabric is also not breathable and may shed microplastics when washed. It consumes 50% less energy than regular nylon, and is more durable.
The fabric is made of the waste plastic and petroleum that is made by burning fossil fuels. This helps reduce the need for more natural resources and also the carbon emissions that result from the production of virgin nylon. It is also easier to handle than other bags since it doesn't require to be dyed or weaved. This makes it an ideal option for bags that are going to be used regularly, such as gym and yoga gear.
In addition to its environmental benefits in addition to its environmental benefits, recycled nylon is a more durable and more flexible material than conventional cotton or polyester. It's also able stand up to the most severe abuse, which makes it perfect for backpacks and other outdoor equipment. The material is lightweight and can easily be shaped and stitched to the shape desired for the backpack. Nylon is also a great option for outdoor gear since it is water-resistant and doesn't absorb mildew or odors as easily as other fabrics.
When selecting bags that are environmentally sustainable, look for Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Certification. This certification checks for chemical residues as also social and environmental responsibility. Look for brands with this certification since they are more likely to be more transparent and accountable with their products.
Patagonia for instance, offers a range of backpacks and yoga gear that are made of recycled nylon, which is known as Econyl. The nylon is created using a closed loop system that uses 50 percent less energy than virgin nylon. Additionally, the brand supports organisations that work to save our planet.
