The phenomenon of fast fashion (chains distributed throughout the world that sell clothes at very low prices and of low quality that they manufacture especially in developing countries), consumerism and the use of more and more materials derived from oil are some of the reasons why fashion has earned a place among the most polluting industries in the world. If you are concerned about climate change and want to take action starting with your clothes, think about buying a second hand or renting clothes with an increasingly popular service, such as Rent the Runway.
Some garments like underwear, stockings and socks are obviously another case, nobody wants to use second-hand socks, for example. But we have found an eco-conscious brand of leggings, leggings and stockings that pays special attention to the materials it uses, such as recycled nylon.
The stockings and tights of the Canadian brand Rachel are designed in Canada and made in Italy. In addition to ensuring that the working conditions in Italy are the best possible, from the brand's website they ensure that they try to minimize their environmental impact by reusing damaged stockings and turning them, for example, into sponges for washing dishes and washing offices., recycle and are in charge of optimizing the surplus and damaged material so that it does not end up in the landfill.
The nylon of their stockings is a very innovative recycled fabric called Q-Nova and is obtained from waste and production surpluses that regenerate and become this fiber, which, as they explain in this video, is the fiber with the lowest environmental impact.
In addition to consuming less water in the process, each kilogram of Q-Nova Nylon saves up to 25 liters of oil that would be used in traditional nylon manufacturing.
The stockings are for sale on their website, fromrachel.com, where you can also find more information about the manufacturing and recycling details of this material, in addition to ideal stockings that will compete your autumn-winter outfits.
