GUESS AIRWASH Makes Classic Stonewashed Styles Eco-Friendly
Laura McQuarrie — July 5, 2024 — Eco
GUESS AIRWASH is a new technology developed exclusively for GUESS by Jeanologia and it reinvents the techniques used to make classic stonewashed styles with an eco-friendly edge. This innovation reduces water consumption and the need to integrate pumice stones in the process—and instead uses air and bubbles.
The modern GUESS denim styles pay homage to influential styles of the 80s and 90s, and make the most of fabrics crafted from organic or recycled materials. When flipped inside-out, GUESS AIRWASH products reveal tags that emphasize sustainable benefits and reduced use of chemicals, water and energy.
GUESS previewed GUESS AIRWASH technology earlier this year with The Next 40 Years of Denim exhibition at Pitti Immagine Uomo, and it is now touring different destinations to familiarize denim lovers with the innovation.
