Ralph Lauren introduces The Earth Polo, a collection of the iconic Polo made with plastic bottles: 100% recycled, 100% recyclable and colored with waterless technology. Each shirt is made with approximately 12 plastic bottles and even the labels and hashtags are made from recycled material. The greatest accomplishment, according to the brand, was making a product good enough to surpass Polo’s standards of quality (some members of the Polo team were not able to determine which fabric was which in a side-by-side comparison).”This is not a new hippie sustainable product: it’s an iconic one”.
