99% of all textile waste ends up destroyed, dumped, or lost forever. *
We don't just want to avoid adding to this percentage, we want to positively change it.
Made from textile waste
Meet our most sustainable collection to date. Waar we meer hebben gecreëerd door minder te gebruiken. Met het minimaliseren van afval als onze prioriteit zijn we aan de slag gegaan.
In a time where the impact of the fashion industry on the environment is undeniable, we actively seek ways to make our collections more sustainable and reduce our impact on the planet.
By exploring circular, repair and rental initiatives, King Louie is actively taking part in the transition to a more conscious fashion industry.
"We are proud to introduce CIRCULOSE® in our SS26 collection. These pieces not only look great and feel good - they also tell a bigger story about the future of fashion."
- Jeroen Dijkema, Managing Director, King Louie
CIRCULOSE®
CIRCULOSE® is a new material made by recycling cotton from worn-out clothes and production waste. Textile-to-textile recycling, a closed loop.
By integrating CIRCULOSE®, we can reduce our reliance on raw materials. We are proud to play a part in accelerating the adoption of next-generation materials across the fashion and textile industry.
Because circular, recycled yarn is not yet sturdy enough to create a strong product, we still need to add raw materials to ensure that it matches our quality standard and handfeel.
The mix we used for this collection:
- Tulum pieces = 48% Circulose + 48% Tencel + 4% Elastane
- Playa Denim pieces = 54% Organic Cotton + 46% Circulose
Shop more sustainable than ever
