Ladies coat unlined

Sporty, water-repellent hooded coat, whose outer material consists of a good half of certified organically grown cotton and the further of recycled polyester from the Ecoalf ocean project. The unlined coat closes with a long two-way zipper, over which is a wind-resistant panel with magnetic buttons. Velcro closures at the ends of the sleeves and at the neck allow the coat to be worn there with a good head closure if needed. Two side pockets with flaps and magnetic buttons and a chest pocket with zipper inserted vertically accommodate small items of daily use.

The Spaniard Javier Goyeneche has found a personal way to counter the waste of raw materials in our throwaway society – with creative ideas. In 2012, his label started producing fashion from recycled fibres. Then he initiated the revolutionary Ecoalf Ocean Project: More than 3,000 fishermen along the Spanish coast enlisted to help recover plastic waste from the sea. Goyeneche has the residues transformed into high-quality yarns for clothes, shoes and accessories. A similar project started in Thailand in 2017. Recycling all-natural textile fibres, namely cotton and wool, is another objective on Ecoalfs to-do list. Finally, the label mastered the challenge of finding new uses for old car tyres.
