Prada bags continue to update the value of nylon.

In 2015, the SDGs were adopted by the UN General Assembly. It was four years later, in 2007, that Prada unveiled its recycled nylon "Re-Nylon.

Re-Nylon" is made from "Econyl®" developed by the Italian material manufacturer Aquafil. This nylon yarn is made from recycled plastic waste such as fishing nets floating in the ocean, and boasts a quality that is as good as that of virgin nylon, while enabling repeated recycling. In addition, the environmental impact of the manufacturing process is dramatically reduced.

Prada was the first to change the value of nylon to luxury. The fact that Prada was the first to take a scalpel to a material that is at the core of the Maison shows that its commitment to sustainability is more than just a pose.

As if to confirm this, Prada's backyard nylons soon became all "re-nylon. The shoulder bag introduced here is, of course, also made of "Re-Nylon.

One is a mini bag for when you don't have much to carry. It has a drawstring closure and an adjustable nylon tape shoulder strap. The front zipper pocket is decorated with a triangle logo.

The mini bag is designed with a mouth reminiscent of a drawstring.

The other type has a mini pouch set on the shoulder strap. The front of this one has a flap pocket.

A plaque inside the bag also shows the brand name.

The Saffiano leather and shiny silver color adorned in key areas give the watch an air of next-generation luxury.

One percent of the proceeds from the sale of the "Linylon" collection will be donated to "SEA BEYOND. SEA BEYOND is an educational program dedicated to ocean conservation launched by the Prada Group and UNESCO-IOC (Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission).
