Hot Recycled Style; For Who ? Why Of Course YOU !

Shaun Deller Wheely cap
Cyclist — or rather, recyclist — Shaun Deller makes his hats from thrift-store garments. Pull a wheely for “military styling without the war” in wool, cotton, or linen. Cap it all off for $30.

Cellphone keypad button earrings
Call attention to your face (and your values) with these earrings made from used cell-phone keypad buttons. Turning waste products into winning creations is SECCO’s secret. Be the talk of the town for €22.50 or about $30 U.S.

These cool shades framed with lightweight, sustainable, exotic-wood veneer are sure to grow on you. Each pair is individually handcrafted, and even comes with a reclaimed-leather carrying case. Alas, one pair will run you $350.

Water Is a Human Right bamboo scarf

Grace & Cello colonial jacket
Keep warm on cool summer nights with this short-sleeved linen jacket that’s as fashionable as it is functional. The Montreal-based designers make sure their garments are made sweatshop-free from organic or other eco-friendly fibers. You can jack this jacket for a cool $139.

Katharine Hamnett graphic tee
Katharine Hamnett’s loud slogan tees were all the rage in the early ’80s (see FRANKIE SAY RELAX). But she’s reissued the vintage looks on organic cotton tees with water-based, eco-inks. This “Clean Up or Die” tee leaves nothing to the imagination, and proceeds help Hamnett green the fashion industry. Price: £45 or about $89 U.S.

Using a blend of bamboo fibers and spandex, this Swiss Hanro bra provides soft support with a conscience. Bonus: the fibers also boast antibacterial properties. Price: $68.

Refinding watch
Keep time in style with a unique timepiece from Refinding. These watches are handmade from reclaimed objects ranging from sports equipment (tennis balls, footballs, basketballs) to matchbooks (sans fire, of course) to traffic cones. Seriously. It’ll cost ya $72, but truly, this “trashion” is priceless.

Reware Juice Bag
Sure, a handbag is handy, but if you’ve got gadgets galore, you’ll want a Juice Bag too. Made from the fibers of reclaimed soda bottles, these packs are strong and durable. Plus, they have a thin-film solar panel that will charge up anything from an iPod to a digital camera. Price: $225 to $275.

Littlearth soda-cap belt
To the unimaginative, old rubber tires, soda pop bottle caps, and seatbelt buckles could be just a bunch of junk. But to the creative minds at Littlearth, this trash becomes treasure in the form of a soda cap belt. And at $30 a pop (!), it won’t break the bank.

Del Forte jeans
Made in the U.S.A. from 100 percent organic cotton, these denim pieces are cut with the eco-chic woman in mind, and a portion of the proceeds go to The Sustainable Cotton Project, which helps connect farmers, manufacturers, and consumers to pioneer markets for organic cotton.

GreenKnickers

These’ll run ya £65 or about $128 U.S.
