Lane Seven Blasts Off with
Future Fleece Hoodie
LANE SEVEN, Los Angeles, recently debuted
its newest off ering: Future Fleece, a 100-percent
regenerated yarn hoodie.
The hoodie is made from yarn that is
composed of post-consumer waste, as well
as scraps left over from the cutting stage of the
garment manufacturing process. Because the
yarn is being repurposed, the material forgoes
the dyeing stage, reducing energy consumption
by approximately 80 percent, water consumption
by approximately 75 percent and chemical
consumption by approximately 90 percent.
" We all leave an impact on the planet, so
we should all play a part in cleaning up our
footprint, " says Lane Seven CEO, Nabeel Amin.
" If each of us did a little better, made things a
little more wisely, think of the collective impact
that could make. We have an obligation to
future generations to do our part in creating
manufacturing methods and products that are
more responsible towards the future. "
According to the company, Lane Seven has

made small but signifi cant strides over the
past couple of years and continues to seek
more sustainable methods of production.
For example, in addition to removing excess
waste and reducing water usage, the company
has moved most of its manufacturing over
to renewable energy and continues to seek
more sustainable and ethical alternatives for
key materials. Lane Seven also supports the
Better Cotton Initiative, the largest cotton
sustainability program in the world.
