One person’s trash is another person’s polyester. Camira’s ultra-durable textile is a tribute to the strength of recycling: Half of its recycled polyester yarn comes from marine plastic pollution, and the other half from plastic bottle waste diverted from landfill. Dyed with a light warp yarn and deeply saturated weft threads for a contrasting weave, the fabric is available in 16 shades, including a full range of aquatic blues and soft, sandy browns inspired by the ocean shoreline.
