UPCYCLE by The Sleep Shirt is a new sustainable step taken by the company to reuse leftover fabric from seasonal production runs. The collection consists of affordable home textiles and accessories made from luxurious cottons and linens. The fashion industry creates millions of pounds of waste fabric every year and founder Alexandra Suhner Isenberg wanted to make sure that The Sleep Shirt was not contributing to this waste of materials and resources. The Sleep Shirt’s policy has always been to use leftover fabrics where they can on extra sleepwear during seasonal production runs. However, small rolls of waste fabric continued to accumulate and so it was decided to find a productive use for the remnant rolls of the high-quality fabrics used in the sleepwear collections. Working with small, female-run production units across Canada, it was decided to find a productive use of the high-quality fabrics used in the regular collections. The Sleep Shirt designed and produced a collection of reusable napkins, tea towels, aprons, and laundry bags made from the adorned sleepwear materials. Shop the UPCYCLE collection.
