Re:Nylon

Prada has always utilized nylon as its main material. The brand's debut in 1984 of Pocone nylon in its bag and accessory line garnered it worldwide acclaim, while Miuccia Prada later expanded the collection with nylon dresses for her eponymous label as well as Linea Rossa (the nylon-heavy, ready-for-hypebeast line that Frank Ocean recently decked himself out in at the Met Gala). Now the powerhouse Milan-based house has reinvented its iconic nylon bags by transforming them into sustainable re:Nylon fabric. The new collection features six classic styles: bags for belts (pictured), shoulder bags (pictured) as well as a tote bag (pictured) and duffle bag (pictured) and two backpacks - in repurposed ECONYL fabrics made from recycled plastics and fishing nets.

The material that is repurposed is the result of a collaboration with Aquafil, an Italian textile yarn producer that makes Econyl fabric using regenerated nylon waste, which can be reused over and over again without losing its quality. The Business of Fashion reports that the repurposed fabric is part of a larger initiative to transition Prada handbag's entire portfolio from virgin nylon to Re:Nylon by 2021. In addition to the six Re:Nylon bags, the collection also includes a pair boots and shoes constructed from repurposed ECONYL and an assortment of clothing made from the same material.

Prada 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 Harry Potter actress and environmentalist Bonnie Wright and National Geographic explorer Asher Jay touring an Arizona carpet recycling facility that turns old nylon into repurposed ECONYL.

With the switch to re:Nylon Prada is making its biggest reduction in virgin nylon use yet, resulting in the saving of 70,000 barrels of oil per year, The Business of Fashion reports. Furthermore, the move will cut down on the company's carbon emissions by 57,000 tonnes. The label has recently gone fur-free on its clothing and accessories. This is the most recent sustainability initiative.

Recycled Nylon

Recycled nylon has its drawbacks. It's not biodegradable and can remain in oceans or landfills for decades before being broken down into smaller particles that could cause harm to wildlife. The fabric is also not breathable and Prada handbag may shed microplastics when washed. It uses 50 percent less energy than normal virgin nylon, and is more durable.

The fabric is made from a combination of petroleum and waste plastic that is made from fossil fuels. This means that it doesn't require for more natural resources and the carbon emissions from the production virgin nylon. It is also less difficult than other bag materials to handle as it does not need to be dyed or weaved. This makes it a great option for bags frequently used, like yoga or gym gear.

Recycled nylon is more durable and flexible than cotton or polyester that are both traditional fabrics. It can also withstand a great deal of wear and tear, making it ideal for backpacks and outdoor gear. It is also extremely lightweight and is easily cut and stitched to form the desired shape of a bag. Nylon is a great fabric for outdoor gear, because it is impervious to water and doesn't absorb odors.

If you are looking for a bag that is sustainable, make sure to look for the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification. This certification tests for chemical residues, as in addition to social and environmental responsibility. This certification is a great indication of brands that are transparent and responsible.

Patagonia is a good example. It offers a range of yoga gear and backpacks that are made from recycled nylon, also known as Econyl. This nylon is produced using a closed loop system which uses 50% less energy than virgin nylon. The brand also supports groups who are dedicated to protecting our planet.
