Closed and Candiani team up for biodegradable stretch denim collection
19 January, 2021
German fashion brand Closed has teamed up with Italian denim mill Candiani for a 100 percent degradable denim collection.
The capsule collection, which comprises jeans and jackets for men and women, is made using organic cotton and biodegradable stretch yarn Coreva, which is produced by Candiani.
Typically metal buttons and studs have already been swapped for natural versions with cellulose origins, the Closed logo is lasered along instead of printed in leather, and a Tencel thread holds the garments together.
This all results within an complete collection of garments which can be degraded within about half a year in compost without the microplastic residue or chemical emission.
Launching in February, the collection comprises two denim jeans fits for women, Gill and X-Lent, plus the jacket Twist. The guys however have the choice between your fits X-Lent and Drop with a traditional denim jacket.
