Champion Athleticwear announces its newest styles, the Eco Future Reverse Weave with CiCLO technology, a patented and science-based solution that allows synthetic textiles to behave more like natural fibers when they enter the environment.

Over 60% of today’s textiles are made with plastic-based synthetic fibers like polyester and nylon, which remain indefinitely in the environment because they are not inherently biodegradable. By incorporating CiCLO technology, the Eco Future Reverse Weave reduces plastic textile fibers in the environment by giving polyester an eventual expiration date, according to a press release from HanesBrands. The collection also features dyes with ingredients derived from nature, including pomegranate, annatto fruit, and terminalia chebula fruit.

“As we continue to innovate and evolve, Champion is dedicated to creating solutions through products that will ensure a better tomorrow for our planet and the people living on it,” said Vanessa LeFebvre, president of Global Activewear at Champion. “Through our partnership with CICLO, we aim to be a catalyst for positive change in the fashion industry, driving conscious choices, responsible actions and continuous improvements, while providing every Champion a canvas to live their true purpose.”

The Eco Future Reverse Weave with CiCLO includes crewnecks and joggers. The collection will be available in-store and on Champion.com beginning December 6.

The product launch comes on the heels of Champion’s first global brand campaign, “Champion What Moves You.” It also follows the news of recent buyer interest from a few different parties to purchase the brand.
