In the transitional period, one thing is particularly important when it comes to clothing: layering. With this 2in1 trench coat, you can indulge in this to your heart's content, depending on the weather. Whether in a double or single layer - you are always comfortably dressed, even if the weather turns nasty. Ecoalf manufactures the water- and wind-repellent coat from durable recycled polyester and skin-friendly cotton. It has a light Used look and the fabric surface is peached (roughened), giving it a velvety-soft feel. The trench coat fastens with press studs and has inset flap pockets and two slit pockets. The fit is casual and therefore offers plenty of freedom of movement, which is also helped by the long back slit. The sleeve openings can be buttoned in two widths. The outer fabric, lining and filling of the long, diagonal check quilted vest are made entirely from recycled polyester, making it pleasantly light yet very warm. It has two side pockets and a spacious hood and is fastened with a two-way zipper. All in all: one or rather two highly functional, stylish garments that are a versatile addition to your wardrobe.

Spanish designer Javier Goyeneche has found his own way to combat raw material waste. Since 2012, his label Ecoalf has been producing fashion made from recycled fibers. A key project is “Upcycling the Oceans,” founded in 2015, in which more than 4,000 fishermen and fisherwomen from Spain, Thailand, Greece, Italy, France, and Egypt now recover plastic waste from the ocean. This waste is transformed into yarn, which is then used to create clothing, shoes, and accessories. In addition, Ecoalf is also involved in recycling textile fibers, specifically cotton and wool—and finally, Ecoalf has also mastered the challenge of repurposing old car tires as outsoles for shoes.

Staining of light-coloured clothing, furniture and other objects is possible.
