Glenmuir has knitted in sustainable attributes throughout its new Spring/Summer 2024 apparel collection, which will be at retail from February.
These environmental credentials are combined with the bold new colour stories for SS24 featuring Aqua, inspired by the waters of Luskentyre; Apricot, reminiscent of sunsets on the west coast of Scotland; and Hot Pink capturing the vibrancy of Scotland’s cities of Glasgow and Edinburgh.
SUSTAINABILITY KNITTED IN
Glenmuir is proud to be able to print their collection brochures with a carbon neutral process and have introduced PFC Free Water Repellency, Enhanced Fabric Printing, as well as the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI).
All of the water repellent and waterproof products in the collection use a PFC-free water repellent technology meaning they no longer contain man-made chemicals that are harmful to our human, animal, and environmental health.
Glenmuir’s printing methods have been upgraded to provide a higher quality of intricacy in the print detail, but the methods and processes are also completely sustainable with no chemical discharge and use plant-based dyes where possible.
All of Glenmuir’s cotton is carefully sourced through the BCI circular ecosystem which helps communities survive and thrive whilst protecting and restoring the environment.
MERCERISED COTTON SHIRTS
Glenmuir’s mercerised cotton golf shirts are made from the finest combed cotton yarn and fabric resulting in a lustrous silk-like feel, luxurious drape and enhanced colour retention. New for SS24 is the Perth and Keith, both elegant options with tonal jacquard patterns running through them, with Keith’s contemporary diamond pattern giving a nod to the classic Scottish argyle. Letham has been brought to life with the new Hot Pink and Aqua colour ways for the double mercerised all over stripe option.
