Global sail racing league SailGP has announced a collaboration with Swiss sportswear firm Mover, a pioneer in 100 percent plastic-free apparel, to create “the world’s first plastic-free technical sportswear.” The collaboration sees the release of a capsule collection of six items, including T-shirts, polos and fleece hoodies, all crafted from 100 percent natural fibers. The items feature plastic-free stitching and labeling as well as water-based printing.
In the future, the collaboration between SailGP and Mover will also see the development of a line of high-performance sportswear for athletes to trial in a sailing environment. Shipping of the SailGP x Mover capsule collection, which can be purchased at shopsailgp.com or mover.eu, is also handled plastic-free.
