Once a plastic bottle is used and properly recycled, it makes its way to a landfill; PLAYBACK Clothing is making its mission to take those discarded bottles and reuse them to make high-end fabrics for a hipster-inspired clothing line. PLAYBACK was created after Al Gore's 'Inconvenient Truth' went viral. PLAYBACK uses the most environmentally friendly and sustainable yarns in the business.
The clothing line features a series of t-shirts and sweaters for both men and women. To date, PLAYBACK has saved over 3.3 million plastic bottles from landfills across the United States of America. From salt and pepper colors to vibrant color blocks, this brand is nothing shy of where the fashion industry is heading.
