Basketball Recycled Polyester

These products are made from at least 50% recycled polyester. Nike products made with recycled polyester are made from recycled plastic bottles that are cleaned, shredded into flakes and converted into pellets. From there, the pellets are spun into new, high-quality yarn used in our products, delivering peak performance with a lower impact on the environment. Recycled polyester reduces waste and reduces carbon emissions by approximately 30% compared to virgin polyester.
