Patagonia fleeces are made from recycled polyester. Recycled polyester is usually made from old plastic bottles and fishing nets collected from our oceans. At first, plastic waste is picked up and sorted out by type and color. Then, they are washed, crushed and chopped into flakes and melted into pellets. These pellets are melted and extruded to make fiber which is processed into fabric, and then making of sportswear can begin! Recycled polyester products reduce waste and require less energy to produce than virgin fibers.
