With this jacket, you’re always well protected from the wind—whether on your way to work, while shopping, or during outdoor activities. In addition, the fabric is water-repellent to slightly waterproof, allowing it to withstand light to moderate rain for a while. The roomy hood features a brim and drawstring, and the water-repellent two-way zipper can be zipped all the way up. The seams are heat-sealed. Sleeve cuffs with Velcro fasteners allow for easy adjustment of the sleeve openings. The loose, straight fit and ventilation eyelets under the armpits ensure excellent comfort. Ecoalf manufactures the jacket from recycled polyester with an internal polyurethane membrane. Since the windbreaker is lightweight, it’s also a reliable companion for travel, allowing you to enjoy stormy days at the beach as well as long hikes and bike rides with complete peace of mind. Two slanted side pockets with flaps over the openings hold small everyday items.

The Spaniard Javier Goyeneche has found a personal way to counter the waste of raw materials in our throwaway society – with creative ideas. In 2012, his label started producing fashion from recycled fibres. Then he initiated the revolutionary Ecoalf Ocean Project: More than 3,000 fishermen along the Spanish coast enlisted to help recover plastic waste from the sea. Goyeneche has the residues transformed into high-quality yarns for clothes, shoes and accessories. A similar project started in Thailand in 2017. Recycling all-natural textile fibres, namely cotton and wool, is another objective on Ecoalfs to-do list. Finally, the label mastered the challenge of finding new uses for old car tyres.
