Recycled waste meets high-end tennis fashion: Wozniacki’s Adidas outfit for Australian Open

Adidas is revealing new clothes ready for the 2019 Australian Open and they’re kicking off the campaign with photos of defending champion Caroline Wozniacki wearing separates made from recycled waste.

When we think of the Australian Open, we think of the ocean, sun and beaches. Last year, Adidas’ Melbourne collection was inspired by beachwear, while this year the sports clothing giant joined forces with Parley for the Oceans, using some of their yarn in the new collection. Raising awareness about the plastic pollution in our precious waters, Adidas included Parley Ocean Plastic™, which is “intercepted from beaches and coastal communities before it reaches the ocean”.
