A
new film from Nike Better World featuring The Netherlands’ Klass-Jan Huntelaar
showcases Nike’s new national team football kits, which combine high
performance with minimal environmental impact.
The
Dutch kit – along with other national team kits including Brazil, USA,
Portugal, France, Croatia and Poland - is Nike’s most environmentally friendly
kit ever. The shorts are made with 100% recycled polyester; while the jerseys
are made with at least 96% recycled polyester.
Since
2010, Nike Football has used an estimated 115 million recycled plastic bottles
to create its high performance kits.
Lined up end-to-end that’s enough bottles to stretch more than halfway
around the world.
