Collection: Men's Recycled Nylon — stretchy, durable, and ultra-soft pieces made for all-day wear At least 86% recycled nylon and at least 50% recycled polyester.

Men's clothing made with 86–88% recycled nylon

The track pieces and the swim shorts here are made with 86–88% recycled nylon, blended with elastane. That blend is what the track jacket, the track pants, the track shorts and the swim shorts have in common, and it is the reason they sit on this page rather than with the cotton styles.

What the fabric is

The nylon is remade from existing nylon material rather than spun from new. It behaves like the fiber it came from, so it keeps the stretch and the recovery that a track pant or a pair of swim shorts needs, and the elastane in the blend is what lets a garment move and return to shape.

The other fabrics on this page

The track pants and the track jacket in the polyester blend are made with at least 50% recycled polyester with cotton, which gives them a flatter drape than the nylon styles. The tennis socks are cotton-led instead: made with 75% organic cotton and 23% recycled polyamide, with the cotton doing the work next to the foot.

Does the fabric feel different?

Not in the way most people expect. It is the same fiber, so the hand and the weight come from how a fabric is knitted or woven rather than from where the nylon started. The construction is what changes from style to style: a ripstop shell is crisp, a knitted track fabric is softer.

Fit and sizing

Sizes run XS to XXXL on nearly all styles, with XXS on a number of them. Some styles use numeric sizing instead of letters.

Washing and drying

Machine wash cold and hang to dry rather than tumble drying. That matters most for the elastane in the nylon styles, which loses its recovery with heat.
