- Patagonia’s Cap made with recycled fabric
Patagonia is merging outdoor comfort with running breathability with its selection of colorful Duckbill Caps. Ranging from solid black and “Mango” orange to patterned “Spoonbills” and “Pollen Confetti,” the headwear are Fair Trade Certified™ sewn from 100% recyclable nylon.
Each cap features a white mesh exterior with a printed or solid fill crown and brim. With its light material, the cap can fold and pack easily, then rebound to its original shape. An adjustable rear buckle has an elastic for a more personalized fit, while a dark underbill is built into the hat to reduce glare and eyestrain. Inside the cap is a low-profile sweatband made from 100% recyclable Capilene® Cool Trail fabric for moisture and temperature management.
2. French Shop ‘Maison Mere’ offers reworks of vintage pieces
The Marseille Mother House shop known for its rework of Nike tie and dye pieces has just launched its Lab. A new entity aimed at highlighting and selling several vintage pieces reworked by the store.
Thrift store located in Marseille, Maison Mère dedicates its back shop to new creations. A logical continuation for the shop which opted for DIY with homemade tie and dye pieces for several seasons already.
“The Lab is the DNA of Maison Mère, an ultra-rich catalog of services for businesses, an ideal base where all ideas are allowed… Brands and professionals can take advantage of a key location in hand for a product launch with great fanfare, to animate talks, carry out workshops etc ” , explains Driss, co-founder of the store. For the moment, reworks of Levis jackets with Nike inserts can be found on the brand’s Instagram.
