Amanda 20-Denier Maternity Tights

After learning that two billion pairs of tights are discarded every year, Linn Frisinger and Nadja Forsberg founded Swedish Stockings as an ecologically mindful alternative with an elegant perspective that's embodied by these black Amanda maternity tights. They're produced in Italy under a zero-waste, emission-free philosophy from recycled polyester and elastane, and can be recycled directly with the label as part of its closed-loop system.

• 87% recycled polyamide, 13% elastane

Swedish Stockings was launched when its founders discovered 2 billion pairs of tights were produced, worn a few times, then discarded each year. Using recycled nylon to create beautiful tights, socks, leggings and shorts, sustainable production practices underline its claim to be 'the only sustainable hosiery brand worldwide'.
