The latter is a material that helps to make the most of pre or post-consumer waste, which comes from sources like fishing nets or carpets. The [sustainable Reclypse sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-sneaker-collection) embrace bright colors and a sporty aesthetic and they feature a striking sole detail that extends up the heel and toe box of the shoes. The vibrant sneakers are not the first designs from McCartney to feature ECONYL, since the designer has debuted swimwear and accessories that also make the most of the material to help reduce waste in the fashion industry. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 58% | Activity: 52% | Freshness: 10% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Eco-friendly Fashion:** More fashion brands are incorporating sustainable and eco-friendly materials into their designs. - **Regenerated Nylon:** Regenerated nylon, such as ECONYL, is becoming a popular material choice for sustainable fashion items. - **Sporty Aesthetic:** Sporty and bright colored shoes, like the Stella McCartney Reclypse sneakers, are gaining popularity in the fashion industry. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry has an opportunity to reduce waste and improve sustainability by incorporating materials similar to regenerated nylon, such as ECONYL, into their designs. - **Footwear Industry:** Footwear companies can focus on creating more sustainable options, such as the Stella McCartney Reclypse sneakers made with eco-friendly materials, to appeal to environmentally-conscious consumers. - **Retail Industry:** Retail companies have the potential to attract eco-conscious consumers by offering a wider range of sustainable fashion options, particularly those with a sporty aesthetic like the Stella McCartney Reclypse sneakers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Compostable Sole Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swave-sport.md) - [Textile-to-Textile Recycled Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allbirds-remix.md) - [Sustainable 3D-Printed Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/4dfwd-1.md) - [Collaborative Sleek Sneaker Model](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taekwondo-shoes.md) - [Recycled Rope-Made Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shore.md) - [Sustainable Color-Blocked Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colville.md) - [Sustainable Running Shoe Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supernatural-runner.md) - [Sustainable Single-Piece Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/on-cloudboom-strike-ls.md) - [Inaugural Sustainable Sneaker Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-sneaker-collection.md)
