In-Depth Review
Revolutionizing Seasonal Comfort
Everlane’s ReWool Scarf is part of their commitment to moving away from virgin materials. Traditional wool production is resource-intensive, requiring significant land use and methane-producing livestock. By sourcing recycled wool, Everlane bypasses these environmental costs while maintaining the warmth and softness expected of premium knitwear.
The Italian Recycled Process
The wool for this scarf is sourced from Prato, Italy, a region renowned for textile recycling since the 19th century. Pre-consumer and post-consumer wool garments are sorted by color, shredded back into fibers, and spun into new yarn. This 'color-sorting' process means the wool doesn't need to be re-dyed, saving thousands of gallons of water and eliminating chemical dye runoff.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Material Blends | 60% Recycled Wool, 40% Recycled Nylon |
| Manufacturing | Prato, Italy |
| Dyeing Process | No-dye (Color-sorted) |
| Texture | Mid-weight textured knit |
Everlane works with the Manteco mill, a world leader in sustainable textiles. The mill uses a life-cycle assessment (LCA) to monitor carbon footprint and energy consumption. This transparency allows Everlane to provide a 'Radical Transparency' breakdown of costs, from materials to transport to labor.
- No-dye process saves water and chemicals
- Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certified yarn
