Patagonia introduces its new women's P-6 Uprisal hoodie and it takes a stand from a sustainable perspective, as the label is often recognized for. In preparation for sweater weather, the label's latest piece is constructed from 95 different recycled materials. This includes exactly 14.9 plastic bottles as well as exactly 0.82 pounds of cotton waste. The ecologically friendly craftmanship saves 184 gallons of water when compared to the construction of traditional cotton sweaters.
The cozy sweater boasts minimal design aesthetics and is offered in three colorway options in total -- black, grey, or maroon. The front of the piece sees a large branding accent through the forms of its colorful logo and it is rounded off with drawstrings at its hood.
