Discover the Innovation Behind REPREVE: The Fabric Changing the Way We Dress

At National Geographic Store Indonesia, innovation meets purpose in every thread. One of the standout materials featured in many of our collections is REPREVE, a cutting-edge fabric that redefines performance and comfort in modern clothing. While it may look and feel like ordinary polyester, REPREVE is anything but ordinary, it’s a revolution in textile technology that’s setting a new standard for conscious fashion.

So, what is REPREVE?

REPREVE is a high-quality performance fiber made by Unifi, Inc., crafted by transforming plastic waste, including from used plastic bottles, into durable, breathable, and flexible fabric. This transformation process ensures that the end product not only performs under pressure but also retains a premium look and feel that consumers have come to expect from trusted names like National Geographic.

For everyday explorers across Indonesia, from the bustling streets of Jakarta to the humid trails of Kalimantan, REPREVE offers a textile solution that adapts seamlessly to different environments and climates.

The Excellence of REPREVE: What Makes It Different?

Let’s break down what makes REPREVE a standout fabric in today’s apparel industry:

  1. Exceptional Durability: Unlike regular polyester, REPREVE is engineered for superior strength. Whether you’re trekking through Ubud’s rice terraces or commuting across the city, it can handle wear and tear without compromising comfort.
  2. Moisture-Wicking and Quick-Dry Technology: REPREVE naturally pulls moisture away from the skin, making it ideal for Indonesia’s humid climate. You stay dry and cool, no matter the adventure.
  3. Comfort Without Compromise: Despite its high performance, REPREVE maintains a soft and smooth texture. The fabric feels gentle on your skin, perfect for daily wear or long travel days.
  4. Odor Resistance: Some variants of REPREVE are treated with odor-control technology, helping your clothes stay fresher, longer, an ideal feature for those with an active, on-the-go lifestyle.
  5. UV Protection: There is a variant of REPREVE that offers UV protection, so you can enjoy an extra layer of defense from the sun’s harsh rays.

Why Choose REPREVE-Made Clothing?

There are compelling reasons to switch to clothes made with REPREVE, especially for Indonesian consumers who demand versatility and reliability in their apparel.

  • Performance Meets Style: You no longer have to choose between function and fashion. Clothing made from REPREVE looks sleek while offering high performance. From basic tees to outdoor-ready jackets, each piece serves dual purposes.
  • Ideal for Active Urbanites and Travelers: Whether you're walking under the sun in Surabaya or hiking Mount Rinjani, REPREVE-based garments adapt to your pace and setting. They’re breathable, flexible, and built for movement.
  • Low Maintenance, High Endurance: Most REPREVE fabrics are wrinkle-resistant and easy to care for. Less time ironing, more time living.
