Dubbed Green District, the line of urban accessories is crafted in ECONYL®, a sustainable nylon yarn recovered from waste materials like fishing nets, textile offcuts, and discarded carpets

It&rsquo;s one thing to speak of sustainability and circularity, and a whole other to put those values into practice. But <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/from-dawn-to-dusk-kendall-jenner-is-back-for-longchamp-spring-2020">Longchamp</a> proves that it can both talk the talk and walk the walk with the launch of Green District, the Maison&rsquo;s new environmentally conscious line of accessories made from ECONYL&reg;.

A regenerated nylon yarn recovered from the pre- and post-consumer waste found on ocean floors and in landfills, such as discarded fishing nets, old carpets and fabric scraps, ECONYL&reg; not only helps to combat the problem of plastic waste, but also reduces the global warming impact of nylon by up to 90% compared to the material from crude oil. What&rsquo;s more, it can be recycled an infinite number of times (literally) without any loss in quality, thereby serving to close fashion&rsquo;s elusive loop.

Longchamp obtains the ECONYL&reg; used in Green District from pioneering Italian company Aquafil, blending the fibre with responsibly sourced leather to create a series of timelessly classic yet resolutely urban designs for all genders. The collection currently comprises 10 styles, including a belt bag, a travel tote, a modifiable backpack, a phone pouch, a crossbody bag,&nbsp;a briefcase, and more in black, &ldquo;terra&rdquo; brown, and royal blue tartan, unadorned save for the logo label and sporty zipper pull cord. Stylish and sustainable? You couldn&rsquo;t ask for more. &nbsp;
