Because as the famous quote from chemist Antoine Lavoisier says (slightly shortened), “nothing is lost, everything is transformed”.
And it also works for fashion.
The proof with this selection of jeans with recycled materials for men and women.
What exactly are recycled jeans?
Recycled jeans are environmentally friendly because their fabric is made exclusively, or in part, of polyester, cotton or other recycled raw materials.
Knowing that new jeans consume a lot of water and energy to produce, it is very useful for our beautiful planet to buy recycled jeans.
The logic also applies to organic and recycled clothing in general.

What are the different types of jeans?
Between the types of washes, the cut, the size, the color and the materials used, when choosing jeans, you really are spoiled for choice!
We will see the cuts in the next game.
Let’s focus here on the most common washouts:
The Brut: the most requested by customers, in an indigo color, it goes everywhere!
The Stone (also called washed or faded): it offers an aged effect, very stylish, due to the multiple treatments it undergoes.
The Bleached: so treated that it looks like it has been sprayed with bleach, it is a timeless 1980s.
Le Gris: these faded jeans in light or dark gray are ideal for highlighting the brighter colors of the other clothes you wear!
Black, finally, lends itself to dressy or, on the contrary, more festive outfits.
Which cut of jeans to choose according to your morphology?
There are many different models of jeans, and to choose your cut, you must above all take an interest in your morphology!
Choose your jeans so that they highlight you and in which you will feel good.
The loose fit, for example, is flexible and comfortable, ideal for streetwear, while the regular fit is very versatile and suitable for all ages.
The bootcut cut is a true basic of women's fashion, with a tight cut at the thighs, then widening below the knees.
This allows you to wear wide shoes and boots (hence the name "boots").
Then there are the slim and skinny cuts, which are much closer to the body.
You can also wear your jeans with any top while remaining stylish, with a sweatshirt, a fleece, a shirt and a jacket...
