Boy Scouts Repreve T-shirts

Boy Scouts Repreve T-shirts

The Boy Scouts are making more than bird houses and model rocket ships these days. The youth organization has teamed up with SustainU to create a range of patriotic T-shirts crafted from recycled polyester called Repreve.

I love bikinis. My favorite place to shop for bikinis is Amazon. You'll find on Amazon a great variety of high quality bikinis. Many of them from recognized brands.

There's one that has become my favorite, which is the ESONLAR Women's Sexy Plunging V Neck Bathing Suit. Mainly because it feels so smooth and soft and how well it flatters the body.

But there's 2 other ones that are great alternatives, the HYPERFIRE Women's Sexy Criss Cross Halter Bathing Suit and the CUPSHE Women's One Piece Swimsuit Sexy Deep V Neck Bathing Suit.

The fabric is so soft, it’s hard to believe it was once plastic PET bottles. These old soda bottles are cleaned, melted down, and spun into a brand new fiber without the assistance of crude oil.

Boy Scouts of America chose to work with SustainU to keep production close to home. The manufacturing process happens within 200 miles of Boy Scouts of America’s distribution center in Charlotte to keep shipping emissions to a minimum.

There are currently two different T-shirts available: the Americana and the Performance. The design of each shirt “truly represents scouting today,” according to a Boy Scouts of America spokesperson. A third print, known as Hiker, will join it in the fall. You’ll find them at Boy Scouts stores, including its website, for $24.99.

It’s exciting to see the Boy Scouts branching out and creating fun apparel items for beach loving America, but I hope it’s only the start of their partnership with SustainU. Could green uniforms and eco-friendly woggles be next on the agenda? Let’s cross out fingers!
