Re:Nylon

Prada has always utilized nylon as its main material. The brand's ’84 debut of Pocone in its bag-and-accessory line won it worldwide acclaim. Miuccia Prada expanded the collection to include nylon dresses for her own label and Linea Rossa, the nylon-heavy collection of a buzzbeast-ready, sexy diffusion that Frank Ocean recently dressed himself in for the Met Gala. The Milan-based powerhouse has transformed its iconic nylon bags into sustainable reNylon fabrics. The new collection comes with six classic designs -- a belt bag, shoulder bag, tote bag, duffle bag and two backpacks made from recycled ECONYL fabric that is made from recycled plastics, fishing nets and textile fiber waste sourced all over the world.

The repurposed fabric is the result of a collaboration with Aquafil, an Italian textile yarn producer which produces Econyl fabric out of recycled nylon waste, which can be recycled over and over again without losing its quality. It's part a larger initiative to shift from virgin nylon to re:Nylon across the entire Prada portfolio in 2021, The Business of Fashion reports. The collection includes six new handbags made of Re:Nylon as well as a pair of ECONYL boots and shoes, and a range apparel made from the same fabric.

Prada and National Geographic produced a series "What We Carry", the video series that showcases the unique method used to create Re:Nylon bags. The first video includes Harry Potter actress and environmentalist Bonnie Wright and National Geographic explorer Asher Jay touring an Arizona carpet recycling facility that turns old nylon into recycled ECONYL.

With the switch to re:Nylon, Prada Bag Black Prada is making its biggest reduction in the use of virgin nylon yet, saving 70,000 barrels of oil per year, The Business of Fashion reports. Additionally, the change will cut down on the company's carbon emissions by an estimated 57,000 tons. It's the latest sustainability initiative from the brand which recently made it fur-free in its clothes and accessories, a decision that was that was lauded by environmentalists and animal rights activists alike.

Recycled nylon

Recycled nylon has its disadvantages. It's not biodegradable and will sit for decades in landfills or in the oceans until it breaks down into smaller particles that can harm wildlife. The fabric is also non-breathable and may shed microplastics when washed. It consumes 50 percent less energy than regular nylon, and is also more durable.

The fabric is made of an amalgamation of waste petroleum and plastics, which comes from fossil fuels. This means that it doesn't require for more natural resources as well as carbon emissions from production virgin nylon. It is also more manageable than other bags, as it doesn't need to be dyed and woven. This makes it an ideal option for bags that are going to be used often, such as gym and yoga gear.

In addition to its environmental advantages in addition to its environmental benefits, recycled nylon is a stronger and more flexible fabric than conventional cotton or polyester. It is also able to take an enormous amount of abuse, which makes it a great choice for backpacks and outdoor gear. It is also extremely lightweight and can be easily formed and stitched into the ideal shape for a bag. Nylon is also a good option for outdoor gear since it is waterproof and doesn't take in mildew or odors as easily as other fabrics.

When choosing a bag that is sustainable, look for the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Certification. This certification checks for chemical residues as well as environmental and social responsibility. Be sure to look for brands that have this certification because they are likely to be more transparent and accountable with their products.

Patagonia for instance, offers a range of yoga equipment and backpacks made from recycled nylon called Econyl. The nylon is created using a closed loop system which uses 50% less energy than virgin nylon. In addition, the brand is a partner with organisations that work to protect our planet.
