Sport Fashion Meets Sustainability with PXG Apparel
Image: Collected
PXG puts pedal to the metal with all things research, innovation, development, and engineering. PXG Founder and CEO, Bob Parsons, raised the bar and led the charge in building the world’s finest golf clubs, and when it comes to PXG Apparel, they take that very same mindset into their design and production.
PXG’s Fall Winter 2021 Apparel Collection not only showcases new statement pieces and sport fashion essentials – but President and Executive Creative Director of Apparel, Renee Parsons, and her design team took the initiative to start including sustainable styles into seasonal collections.
How Is PXG Apparel Working Towards Sustainability?
PXG’s in-house apparel team designs and manages the production of each season’s collection with high-quality fabrics, textures, and silhouettes all front of mind. Running in parallel is the charge to find more sustainable manufacturing techniques and fabrics to help create a more sustainable future.
PXG Apparel works with certified green mills and green factories that are each required to act responsibly and sustainably regarding people, the environment, and resources. These certified facilities set forth all the relevant information and ensure consistent transparency and traceability of all processing steps, right down to the raw materials.
PXG has chosen to work with smaller factories all over the world including in New York and Italy where they have more control over greener practices. These green mills can significantly reduce landfill waste as well as significantly reduce air and water pollution. Green mills also reduce environmental stressors with a lesser focus on heavily processing raw materials.
PXG is also working with mills that are certified in OEKO-TEX® Standard which tests components including thread, buttons, and zippers for harmful substances. OEKO- TEX is globally standardized and updated frequently based on scientific developments and new garment requirements with testing conducted in certified exclusive, independent, and neutral institutions.
