500 years in a landfill. That’s the fate of a discarded plastic bottle. San Francisco-based outfitter Taylor Stitch decided to do something about it. The Hackney Jacket is the fruit of their labors, transforming plastic bottles into the recycled nylon that’s brought to bear in the clean, purpose-driven design.
Fully waterproof and functionally stylish, the Hackney jacket is positioned to be your go-anywhere mild weather essential. The recycled Nylon Taslan fabric feels as soft on your skin as cotton while managing to repel water like Teflon. Double entry patch pockets offer ample space to stow your gear, and additional touches such as the 2-way zipper, gusseted arm opening, and three-piece hood keep you safe from the elements without sacrificing the quality and style that Taylor Stitch sews into every design. As part of a crowdfunding campaign with a pre-sale price of $138, shipments of the Hackney Jacket are estimated to begin late June to early July. – $138
