Our plan is to find more recycling solutions so we can take back more stuff we make. We’re starting small and focusing on product categories that can be more easily recycled back into new clothing instead of made into something of lesser value. Why can’t everything be recycled with SuperCircle? We’ll let you know when we start accepting more stuff. We’re starting out with recycling shoes, bags, activewear, sweaters, tees, outerwear, and denim made by Reformation. For non-Ref items, we recommend donating through thredUP.Īre there any clothing items I should not send back? It helps to know the fabric composition or shoe components of a product in order to recycle it properly. We make Ref Shoes from high-value stuff that’s meant to be recycled, so we can keep materials out of landfills and in use for as long as possible.Ĭan I send in product that isn’t Ref to be recycled?įor now, we’re only focusing on our own stuff. But once your shoes have really reached the end of their life, the materials they’re made of can still be used to create something else. We’re big on taking care of your stuff and finding ways to make it last longer, or keeping it in circulation through resale or donation.

Discarded shoes take forever to break down, and leave behind plastic, heavy metals, and other toxic chemicals while they do it. Shoe recycling is complex, so most unwanted footwear ends up in a landfill or incinerator. More opportunities for clothing recycling contributes to lower demand, and thus lower emissions for making virgin materials. Our RefRecycling program keeps clothes in circulation or recycles them to be made into new stuff. Most cities aren’t set up to process textile waste at recycling centers, so it will likely end up in the landfill. alone throws away over 16 million tons of textiles a year, a lot of which sits in landfills for pretty much ever. That way, we cut waste and use fewer new materials. We just have to keep them out of landfills and in the fashion system. The good thing is, there are actually enough clothing and textiles in existence today to meet our global annual demand. While being naked is the #1 most sustainable option, we get that people are going to keep buying clothes.

If you have clothing that can be reused, we recommend reselling it with thredUP.

Drop cleaned items at any UPS/USPS location or Reformation store.
