Davy J: Stylish, active, sustainable swimwear
A NEW KIND OF BEACHWEAR THAT YOU CAN SWIM IN USING ECONYL YARN, A 100% REGENERATED NYLON YARN MADE FROM WASTE PRODUCTS
WORDS FROM DAVY J
Real swim wear
Davy j is a swimwear brand for the wild. Designed to survive a dive, pull off a cliff jump or handle a waterfall, it's a new kind of beachwear - one that you can swim in.
The waste collection
Our waste collection uses econyl yarn - a 100% regenerated nylon yarn from waste including spent and ghost fishing nets. An average of 640,000 tons of fishing nets are left in the oceans every year (1/10 of all marine litter). For every ton of waste nets collected there is enough nylon regenerated to create more than 10,000 swimsuits.
Survive the dive
Our suits are designed to last longer, fighting the trend of throwaway fashion and creating something that can keep up with you in all conditions. A double lined, high elastane composition provides extra strength, durability and shape; with hidden rubber edging and cross back designs our styles are built to ensure you surface from the water in the same condition as you entered it.
Circular economy
We are aiming to build a closed-loop resource system within the brand. While our suits are built to last, when they do eventually reach the end of their life we want you to return them to us and we will find a way to reuse the resources.
