The sun is shining, the sea is sparkling… and you? You’re wearing a recycled nylon swim brief that’s more than just good-looking. It tells a story — of abandoned fishing nets and recovered plastic waste, transformed into a high-performance fabric: ECONYL®. At BLUEBUCK, we believe elegance can be eco-friendly without losing its edge.
Why choose a recycled nylon swim brief?
Because it makes all the difference. Not just for your look, but for the planet:
- 78% ECONYL®, a recycled nylon that saves 80% of energy compared to virgin nylon.
- 22% elastane for comfort that moves with you (and your dives).
- 100% European manufacturing, in workshops powered by green electricity.
And let’s be honest, a BLUEBUCK recycled nylon swim brief is also about:
- A fitted cut that won’t float around you like a buoy.
- A quick-drying fabric that resists both chlorine and salt water.
- A timeless style, never discounted, because true quality doesn’t need sales to exist.
ECONYL®: the fiber that gives waste a second life
ECONYL® was born from a simple idea: turning waste into new material. Fishing nets, used carpets, production scraps… nothing goes to waste. After careful sorting and cleaning, the nylon is regenerated into a yarn ready to be woven.
The result: a fabric just as strong, flexible, and water-resistant as conventional nylon, but with a much lower environmental impact.
At BLUEBUCK, we use this fiber for our recycled nylon swim briefs and swim boxers. Same comfort, same durability, but with a little extra soul woven into every stitch.
Yes — just as strong, flexible, and water-resistant as conventional nylon, with the added benefit of a lower environmental impact.
A recycled nylon swim brief feels no different in terms of comfort: the fabric remains soft, flexible, and pleasant on the skin, just like a conventional swimsuit. The only difference is invisible to the touch — behind this textile lies a responsible approach, turning plastic waste into a high-performing, durable swimsuit.
