Re:Nylon

Nylon has been a major material for Prada. The brand's '84 debut of Pocone nylon in its bag and accessory line won an international acclaim. Miuccia Prada tote bag black later expanded the collection with nylon dresses for her own label and Linea Rossa (the nylon-heavy, Prada Handbag Sale ready-for-hypebeast line that Frank Ocean recently decked himself out in at the Met Gala). The Milan-based brand has reimagined its iconic nylon bags, transforming them into sustainable re:Nylon fabrications. The new collection features six classic designs -- bags for belts, shoulder bag, tote bag duffle bag, and two backpacks made of repurposed ECONYL fabric that is made from recycled fishing nets, plastics and textile fiber waste that is sourced globally.

The recycled material is the result of a collaboration with Aquafil which is a textile yarn manufacturer in Italy that produces Econyl fabric from recycled nylon waste. The fabric can be reused many times without losing its quality. It's part of an overall initiative to transition from virgin nylon to re:Nylon throughout the entire Prada portfolio by 2021, The Business of Fashion reports. In addition to the six Re:Nylon bags, the range also includes a pair of shoes and boots made of recycled ECONYL and an assortment of clothing made from the same fabric.

Prada Handbag Sale and National Geographic produced a series "What We Carry", an online series that focuses on the unique process used to create the Re:Nylon bags. The first video is a collaboration between Bonnie Wright, an environmentalist and Harry Potter actress, and National Geographic explorer Asher Jay visiting a carpet recycling plant in Arizona that converts old nylon into recycled ECONYL.

With the switch to re:Nylon, Prada is making the biggest reduction in the use of virgin nylon yet, saving 70 000 barrels of oil every year, The Business of Fashion reports. This move will also lower the carbon emissions of the company by around 57,000 tons. This is the latest sustainability initiative from the brand which recently made it fur-free in its clothes and accessories, which was applauded by both animal rights activists and environmentalists alike.

Recycled nylon

Recycled nylon has its disadvantages. It isn't biodegradable and will be buried in landfills or the ocean for decades until it is broken down into smaller particles that could cause harm to wildlife. The fabric is also not breathable and can shed microplastics when washed. It consumes 50 percent less energy than normal nylon, and is also more durable.

The fabric is made of a mixture of waste petroleum and Prada Handbag Sale plastics, that is made from fossil fuels. This reduces both the need for more natural resources and the carbon emissions resulting from the production of virgin nylon. It is also easier than other bag materials to handle because it doesn't have to be dyed or weaved. This makes it a great option for bags that will be used often, such as gym and yoga gear.

Recycled nylon is more durable and flexible than cotton or polyester that are both traditional fabrics. It can also withstand an enormous amount of abuse which makes it ideal for backpacks and outdoor equipment. It is also extremely lightweight and can be easily shaped and stitched to create the ideal shape for a bag. Nylon is also a good choice for outdoor gear as it is water resistant, and it doesn't absorb 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 is a test for chemical residues, as well in ensuring environmental and social responsibility. Look for brands with this certification because they are likely to be more transparent and accountable when it comes to their products.

Patagonia is a good example. It has a variety of backpacks and yoga gear that are made from recycled nylon called Econyl. This nylon is made using a closed-loop method that uses 50% less energy than regular virgin nylon. The brand also supports organizations that are dedicated to protecting our planet.
