The Rise of Re-Nylon: How Atelier Olmsted’s Cloud Collection Redefines Sustainable Outerwear

Re-Nylon: The Fashion Industry’s New Darling

In today’s fashion landscape, sustainability is no longer a trend—it’s a necessity. At the forefront of this shift is Re-Nylon, a revolutionary textile crafted from regenerated plastic waste. More than just a material, it represents a philosophy: design that protects the planet without sacrificing performance.

Atelier Olmsted brings this philosophy to life in its new Cloud Collection, a minimalist, slow-fashion capsule that combines Re-Nylon with our signature Canadian eiderdown to create outerwear that is as responsible as it is refined.

Where Sustainability Meets Technical Elegance

While traditional nylon is prized for durability and versatility, it falls short of the standards Atelier Olmsted upholds. Enter Re-Nylon—made from discarded fishing nets, industrial waste, and textile scraps. This regenerated fiber retains all the strength of virgin nylon while reducing dependence on fossil fuels and mitigating ocean plastic.

In the Cloud Collection, Re-Nylon plays a supporting role to eiderdown—complementing its lightness and warmth with a protective outer shell that’s waterproof, windproof, and fully recyclable.

The Cloud Collection: Statement Style, Slow Fashion

Olmsted’s Cloud Collection isn’t just a product drop—it’s a declaration. A declaration that luxury can be light-footed. That minimalism can be maximal in purpose. And that technical innovation can serve both the wearer and the world.

Each piece is produced in small, traceable batches in Canada, with circularity and climate impact top of mind. From sourcing to stitching, every decision reflects a commitment to longevity, quality, and planetary care.

Re-Nylon at the Core: Built to Last. Designed to Lead.

At Atelier Olmsted, we believe materials carry messages. By choosing Re-Nylon, we’re choosing to lead a transformation—from fast fashion to slow craftsmanship. From extractive to regenerative. And from waste to worth.

The Cloud Collection embodies this transition—offering modern outerwear that adapts to life’s extremes while honoring nature’s limits.

Conclusion: A Fashion Future We Can Feel Good About

We’re at a turning point in fashion history. Consumers are demanding more from their wardrobes—more responsibility, more transparency, more purpose. Atelier Olmsted answers this call with the Cloud Collection, pairing recycled materials with timeless design to chart a new course in sustainable luxury.
