Freitag F640 Rollin
An inner lining made of [recycled plastic bottles](https://www.wired.com/gallery/our-favorite-upcycled-and-recycled-products/) keeps this roll-top shoulder bag light, while recycled heavy-duty truck tarps add durability where the bag needs it most.

Patagonia Nano Puff
With a 100 percent [recycled polyester shell](https://www.wired.com/gallery/our-favorite-upcycled-and-recycled-products/) and insulation made up of 55 percent recycled content, the Nano Puff also happens to be the most useful jacket you will ever own. Patagonia gets bonus points because it has been recycling plastic soda bottles into fleece since 1993, and it has a trade-in program that gives your outgrown clothes a second life.

Rothy's Copper Flat
These stylish knit uppers are made of [100 percent post-consumer plastic bottles](https://www.wired.com/gallery/our-favorite-upcycled-and-recycled-products/), while the foam components are made from other recycled shoes. The shoeboxes are also made from 85 percent recycled materials and are, of course, fully re-recyclable.

Outerknown Evolution Pocket Shorts
Acclaimed surfer Kelly Slater’s company, Outerknown, created Econyl, a nylon that's made from abandoned fishing nets and used to fashion board shorts and jackets. These [swim trunks](https://www.wired.com/gallery/our-favorite-upcycled-and-recycled-products/) are understated enough to work as shorts on your next beach vacation, and they're also treated with a PFC-free durable water repellent.

Bureo Ahi
The Ahi is a performance cruiser skateboard, designed to make you feel like you're surfing on land. Like Bureo’s other products, it’s [crafted out of plastic](https://www.wired.com/gallery/our-favorite-upcycled-and-recycled-products/) made from discarded fishing nets.

[Mafia Bags](https://mafiabags.com/) makes its backpacks, duffels, and totes out of recycled sailcloth, which is light and durable. Industrial designer (and surfer) Yves Béhar designed the [Deep Blue bag](https://www.wired.com/gallery/our-favorite-upcycled-and-recycled-products/), which incorporates old climbing ropes, seat belts, and wet suit neoprene, and has fun, hidden details, like a loop at the bottom of the bag so you can hang it upside down while it dries.

Solgaard Carry-On Closet Plus
Yes, a [closet-inside-a-suitcase](https://www.wired.com/gallery/our-favorite-upcycled-and-recycled-products/) is awesome, but the best part is that Solgaard's products are made with things like recycled bottles (some are made entirely of ocean plastics). For each product sold, the company removes five pounds of plastic from the ocean.
