Sustainability plays a role in my diet, and home improvement choices. So there was never any doubt that I was going to post this release. Well, once I got past the completely erroneous “why would I get PR about recycled bib shorts” reaction :). Regardless of your opinion around sustainably (queue “keep your politics to yourself” comments), there’s no arguing with the price – assuming it’s quality kit. $80 for a jersey, $90 for bibs, or $150 for the complete package is very competitive.

State Bicycle Co Introduces Sustainable Clothing Built From Post-Consumer Recycled Fabric

Made with mindfulness and respect for Mother Earth – using recycled materials.

As riders, we must ensure that we are taking care of our outside playground and preserving it for future generations. That is why State Bicycle Co. uses recycled/recyclable materials in this product and packaging. Each jersey and bib set is constructed with REPREVE® recycled polyester – made from 100% post-consumer waste (primarily water bottles).

 

The fabrics are woven in a tight-knit circular mesh so that the rider notices no physical difference between the recycled fabric and other traditional options.

Performance and quality have not been spared in the name of sustainability. State Bicycle Co. has redesigned its cycling kit options to focus on exquisite fit, top performance, and attention to detail.
