This jacket is in PERFECT condition, and being polartec is part of the reason why. Working with Polartec®, prioritized using fabric technologies and fleece fabrics made from recycled PET plastics, a process Polartec pioneered in the early 90s. (Polartec has turned over 1.5 billion post-consumer bottles into a range of premium, long-lasting performance fabrics). Don’t get caught up in the language of it all. All you need to know is this: PET plastic is a strong, lightweight material that is stronger and lighter than most other fabrics. You no longer need to sacrifice sustainability for performance. Here’s how Polartec®’s fabric provides sustainability and performance: The fabric is knit from recycled bottles – your recycling efforts are paying off. Using Recycled yarn allows Polartec to reduce the need for virgin fibers and has kept more than a billion plastic polyester bottles out of landfills. The manufacturing process uses less water than traditional fabrics - in this case, less is more when it comes to sustainability. Features fabric to reduce microfiber shedding - this makes your gear last longer. When you re-watch One World 5, 10 or 20 years in the future, your One World gear will still be with you.
