Houdini W's Adventure Short Tights - Recycled Polyester

Houdini W's Adventure Short Tights Light, stretchy and durable mid-length women’s performance tights, perfect for all types of training. Made in a recycled and recyclable polyester fabric, making the garment fully circular. Women’s Adventure Short Tights are made in a classic 205 g/m² fabric, which is a weight that you will recognize from other training or running tights. But this fabric is nothing but ordinary. Instead of mixing in elastane to achieve the stretch, these tights are made in pure polyester with a mechanical stretch given by the knitting technology. The benefit is that you get a warmer and “dryer” feeling compared to elastane tights. It is moisture wicking and dries a lot quicker than normal tights making them better for layering. Women’s Adventure Short Tights are a perfect choice if you are looking for a pair of versatile tights for running, training, yoga, climbing or hiking. Thanks to the circular design, you are also doing something good for our planet.

Air clothes instead of washing to save water, energy and to make the garments last longer. Use a washing bag to protect your garments and to prevent fibers from leaking. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure to wipe it clean and throw the lint in your trash can. Never rinse it in water since we don’t want the fibers to end up in lakes or oceans. Machine wash, max 40 °C/104 °F. Use mild environmentally certified detergents and make sure to use the right dose. Avoid fabric softener. Besides being harmful for our environment, they have a negative impact on the garment performance, mainly moisture transportation and breathability. Tumble dry on low heat. Iron on low heat. What's sustainable? Circular The Circular label means that this product is made either from recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable fibers. Most products in today's society are made in a linear lifecycle, where earth's resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This is not working in the long run and comes at a great environmental impact. Instead, we want to close the loop and reuse the material we already have. But we need your help. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us through the recycling units we have in all our own stores and at many retailers. Recycled The Recycled label means that this garment contains at least 50% recycled fibers (often more, see product description). The source is either recycled clothes or other sources like PET bottles. We mainly use recycled polyester, which has many benefits. It reduces both CO2 emissions and water use compared to virgin polyester. How much depends on the type of recycling. One of our suppliers show 32% less CO2 emissions and 94% less water use for mechanically recycled polyester. Besides the production impact, the major shift is using "waste" as raw material instead of crude oil. Recyclable The Recyclable label means that the raw material in this product can be used for new products, instead of becoming waste. Our goal is that by 2030, we will take no raw material to our products from the earth's crust. Circular products, made from reycled and recyclable materials are a real game changer, but we need your help for the system to work. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us. We have recycle units in all of our own stores and at many retailers.
