Circular
The Circular label means that this product is made either from recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable fibers. Most products in today’s society are produced in a linear lifecycle, where earth’s resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This approach is not sustainable in the long run and has a significant environmental impact.
Houdini aims to close the loop and reuse the materials that already exist. However, they need your help. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them through the recycling units available in all Houdini stores and at many retailers.

Recycled
The Recycled label means that this garment contains at least 50% recycled fibers (often more; see the product description). The source may be recycled clothes or other materials such as PET bottles. Houdini primarily uses recycled polyester, which offers many benefits. It reduces both CO₂ emissions and water use compared to virgin polyester, although the exact reduction depends on the recycling method. One of Houdini’s suppliers reports 32% lower CO₂ emissions and 94% less water use for mechanically recycled polyester. Beyond production impacts, the major shift is using “waste” as a raw material instead of crude oil.

Recyclable
The Recyclable label means that the raw material in this product can be used to create new products instead of becoming waste. Houdini’s goal is that by 2030, they will extract no raw materials from the earth’s crust for their products. Circular products made from recycled and recyclable materials are a real game changer — but the system only works with your support. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to the recycling units available in all Houdini stores and at many retailers.

care instructions

Softshell

Softshell or single layer shells are garments with a water repellent surface, but without a membrane.

• Use a washing bag to protect your garments and to prevent fibers from leaking. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure to wipe it clean and throw the lint in your trash can. Never rinse it in water since we don’t want the fibers to end up in lakes or oceans.
• Machine wash cold.
• Use mild environmentally certified detergents and make sure to use the right dose.
• Avoid fabric softener. Besides being harmful for our environment, they have a negative impact on the garment performance, mainly moisture transportation and breathability.
• Hang dry. Just remember to introduce heat to the garment after washing to reactivate the water resistant surface of the outer fabric. Use a drying cabinet, dryer or iron. Make sure you monitor the heat so the garment does not melt.
• You can reapply or enforce the water repellent treatment with a wash-in or spray when needed. Always use an organic DWR: You can find both a spray and a wash-in in the webshop or in our stores.
