Vollebak Black Algae T-Shirt

Algae is the new black. At least in Vollebak's Black Algae T-Shirt. The single-celled organism is being used to create a sustainable algae-based ink. Instead of using traditional black dyes made with fossil fuels, the shirt gets its slate hue from black algae ink. Developed with biomaterials company Living Ink, the non-toxic pigment is made using carbon dioxide-absorbing algae harvested from giant open-air ponds. The ink is then printed on an eco-friendly fabric crafted from responsibly harvested eucalyptus, beech, and spruce, where it continues to lock in the carbon dioxide emissions for the next 100 years. After printing, the shirt is pre-washed with a softener made from mangos to give it a lived-in feel, while the UV-resistant ink will continue to look as fresh as the day it was purchased for years to come.
