The brand's new Packable [Anorak](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-natura-collection) jacket is composed of [enzymatically recycled polyester](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unifi) and captured carbon, aligning with the company's goal of shifting to 75% recycled polyester. Furthermore, the brand is dedicated to making 100% of its products "with preferred materials, or those with improved environmental or social sustainability outcomes and impacts compared to conventional production, and end-to-end solutions to advance a circular ecosystem by 2030." The innovative polyester used in this jacket is created through a blend of advanced bioprocessing technologies. Samsara Eco, a leader in enzymatic recycling, plays a crucial role in this process. Combining this with LanzaTech's captured carbon material, lululemon's Packable Anorak jacket is one of the newest examples of a modern fashion brand putting in substantial effort to create circular products.
