• Marks & Spencer unveils sustainable and eco-friendly suit made from recycled materials


  • Marks & Spencer seems adamant of lightening its carbon footprint and has recently unveiled a one-of-a-kind suit, probably the greenest the world as ever seen. Called the world’s most sustainable suit, this jacket-and-trouser uses Global Organic Textile (GOTS)-certified organic wool; a lining derived from recycled plastic bottles, recycled-polyester canvas interfacing, reclaimed buttons and pockets, a repurposed waistband, and recycled-polyester labels and is well tailored and suave indeed. Priced at £349 ($549), five hundred of these have been manufactured and will hit stores by September, bringing to light Marks & Spencer’s commitment to a carbon-neutral future.
