wijld: Made of Wood
Hard to imagine, but wijld produces sportswear of wood. At first it sounds uncomfortable, scratchy and somehow massive, but in fact it’s not. On the contrary: the garments are surprisingly soft and offer incomparably light wearing comfort. But comfort and style are only half the story for the winner of the German Sustainability Award for Start-Ups. wijld obtains its wood exclusively from certified sustainable forestry, which makes the garments of the German start-up additionally environmentally friendly. In the video below you can see how they spin wood into yarn and make a Woodshirt.
Oceans Apart: Fully sustainable & fully in vogue
Oceans Apart produces activewear that is both fashionable and sustainable. The pieces are processed in a resource-saving way and are 100% vegan. The fact that sustainability does not necessarily mean a lack of style is proven by the hip and modern cuts of the leggings and tops of Oceans Apart.
