Love My Jeans is a 100% recycled yarn produced in Italy from recycled jeans. The denim fabric is torn up and reduced to fibres to be spun again into yarn.
The range of variegated dusty colours comes from the original materials used. The yarn is not dyed twice, the fibres maintain the shades they originally had. By mixing the recycled jeans a beautiful heathered yarn is produced. Not only does this yarn save textile waste from landfill it reduces the need for water usually used for dyed yarns.
Love My Jeans bears the 'Recycled Blended Claim Standard' mark. A certification standard to track recycled raw materials through the supply chain. Providing assurance that materials in the final product are genuinely recycled and processed more sustainably.
