Isbjörn removes polyester, uses bamboo instead

As part of its Green at Heart sustainable mission, the Swedish specialist for kids’ outdoor clothing, Isbjörn of Sweden, has removed all polyester from its Husky baselayer range for the fall/winter 2020 collection and replaced it with sustainably sourced natural bamboo fibers and mulesing-free Merino wool as an outer material. The natural blend of materials used in the Husky collection includes 49 percent Merino and 46 percent bamboo. All the garments are quick-drying and can be washed on a 40-degree cycle with no effect on performance and without pilling.
