Our Recycled & Respun Collection is made of 98% recycled materials, the highest amount possible without sacrificing comfort and fit.
Each piece undergoes an innovative mechanical recycling process requiring <10% of the water and energy necessary to make similar apparel.

Not only do the chemicals, salts, and heavy metals used in the dyeing process pose significant health risks for garment workers, but the wastewater is typically dumped directly into surrounding rivers (@cnnstyle). Once the water is contaminated, it's challenging to treat.

[Blue & Yellow @blueyellowbrand]

Blue & Yellow is committed to preserving the environment and eliminating pollution at every stage of the production process.

[Blue & Yellow @blueyellowbrand]

It's no secret that harsh chemicals and synthetic dyes are used throughout the textile production process to give clothing a specific look and feel. Yet, we still see fabric preparation, dyeing, and finishing polluting essential water sources.

In the U.S. alone, we see over 11 million tons of textiles sent to landfills every year. Blue & Yellow wants no part in that. Recycled cotton classics are coming soon. Sign up for yours at https://t.co/1CSB2PrecY

Synthetic fibers used in the majority of our clothes emit gases like N2O, which is 300 times more damaging than CO2. — @jimconca @forbes

The apparel industry accounts for 10% of global carbon emissions due to the energy used during production, manufacturing, and transportation. Your fashion choice makes a difference. #blueandyellowproject

[Blue & Yellow @blueyellowbrand]

Using what we already have is undoubtedly the best thing we can do for mindful consumption. We're reviving unused materials and transforming them into your new favorite classics in two collections we’re calling “Rescued & Reborn” & “Recycled & Respun." #blueandyellowproject

[Blue & Yellow @blueyellowbrand]

Did you know an extra nine months of active use can reduce the overall carbon footprint of your garments by 20-30% (@fash_rev)? At #blueandyellowproject, we're reducing the harmful impact of your clothing by breathing new life into unwanted fabrics.
