My first ever actual writer-type post on SCoC was about Adidas winning the NHL rights from...itself, technically. Adidas, surely realizing this, decided that it was time for some news to break out to commemorate it. I appreciate their concern.
The Boston Bruins and Adidas Hockey announced today that the NHL will be switching from their previous model of sweater to what Adidas refers to as their PrimeGreen series, which will be made from 50% recycled plastic material.
Adidas has been trying to at the very least pay lip service to the concept of going greener in the textile market with their “End Plastic Waste” clothing, all of whom use recycled polyester or plastic pulled up from the ocean.
