Organic cotton and recycled polyester brought to you by MEC

Posted by Pinky Bean on May 12, 2008 5:45 AM Filed Under: Clothes, Shopping

It may be time to update the entire family's wardrobe for spring and what better place to do it than one that offers sustainable clothing for every family member, right down to the youngest ones.

Mountain Equipment Co-op offers a wide range of comfortable, practical and versatile attire for families that are active and require apparel that can keep up. The collections include clothing made from organically-grown cotton and recycled polyester.

If you're planning to spend a lot of time outdoors with this summer, this is the line for you. The recycled polyester clothing includes fleece jackets, insulated vests, water-resistant long john's and wind-proof pants

Hiking pants and walking shorts, or overalls and an apron dress (for the young ones) are part of the line clothing created using organically-grown cotton.

For the water-loving family, also be sure to check out the PVC-free personal flotation device (PFD) line, among other must-have items for the lake or beach excursion.

Hit the jump to see more of MEC's eco-friendly outdoor clothing line.
