The trees will like what you're wearing

New label Yew Clothing is giving environmentally-conscious athletes the chance to wear their beliefs.

They’ve recently announced the launch of their new range of active wear made from 100 per cent recycled materials. The company believes this is the first collection of high performance sports gear that’s kind to the environment.

Designed by athletes who wanted a little more from the sports clothing they wear, Yew’s selection of jackets and Everywear performance tops feature everything you would normally expect from high quality sports gear, but are made with 100% recycled polyester from consumer waste. This means that the fabric used to create them is produced from re-processed plastics like drinks bottles or food containers, helping to reduce waste and using much less energy to produce than brand new fibres. The resulting collection of high quality, durable garments are built to last, fit well, and will keep you comfortable and dry as a base layer on the slopes.
