The exclusive new line boasts Champion's signature Reverse Weave sweatshirts and is part of the brand's largest sustainability effort, Champion MADE.
The new eco-friendly collaboration between the brands will help this expand the life of Champion's apparel and increase the use of responsibly made fabrics while finding new ways to upcycle products and reduce resource consumption during manufacturing. The Champion Renewed collection will be made following the Renewal Workshop's proprietary six-stage, zero-waste process. This means garments will undergo rigorous standards as they are reworked and thorughly sanitized and repaired to like-new standards.
The new capsule features 24 styles of the Reverse Weave Pullover Hoodie and Reverse Weave Crew for men's/unisex fit and women's fit. In addition, the series is priced between $30-$45 (40% less than the original MSRP).
