Pink Tiny Print Kalamkari Peacock Unisex Athletic Long Shorts

Description

<p>Kalamkari is an ancient textile printing art form that literally translates to Pen Art (from Persian Qalam, meaning pen and Qari meaning art.) and is said to have arrived as early as about 3000 years ago in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Some believe the present day Kalamkari is a blend of Mughal Art and an art form called Patta Chitra, (which translates to Fabric Art from Sanskrit) from Andhra Pradesh. The pattern here is made using a common peacock bird motif in the Kalamkari style, on a pretty, contemporary pink base.</p>

Recycled polyester (rPET for short) is a fabric that’s produced from synthetic fibers. Recycled polyester is produced by recycling existing materials (like plastic bottles and packaging) but still has all the characteristics and performance as a regular polyester, making it a more sustainable fabric alternative. How’s recycled polyester made?. Recycled polyester is made by crushing plastic products into small pieces. These small pieces are then processed into yarn, transformed into a fiber, and in the end—made into a fabric. What are the advantages of recycled polyester?. Producing rPet takes 33% to 53% less energy than creating polyester from scratch. Also, rPet produces approximately 54. 6% fewer CO2 emissions to the air than virgin polyester.  . By using recycled materials to make things like these Unisex Athletic Long Shorts, at least some of the plastic waste produced doesn’t end up in landfills. </p>
