The Re-Tee & Re-Fleece

The name at first said it all, Re-Tee. This is a 100% Recycled shirt. Our everyday lives are filled with more waste than we might like to admit but the Re-Tee changes that. All of the material from the tee is upcycled from fabric destined for the landfill and given new life in the form of super soft tees and sweatshirts.

Sustainability Problems & Shrinking

Cotton, our old and trusty friend, forever the backbone of the apparel industry. Now our enemy, it can take up to 2,700 liters of fresh water to make a single t-shirt, at a time when fresh water is becoming scarce world wide.

Compounded with that is the fact that all cotton shrinks over time, so even a shirt that isn’t covered in stains and ripped may have to be thrown out when it no longer fits.

Solution

Recycle, there I said it. The District brand from San-Mar has dropped in our laps the perfect tee for the modern era. Made from 60% recycled cotton and 40%recylced polyester(polyester never shrinks) the Re-Tee shows us what a sustainable future might look like. It comes in Short Sleeve Mens and Womens Tees as well as Zip Up and Pullover Hoodies. Ask about getting your next order of custom printed tees printed on the tee of the future. Details
