Composition and Care
COMPOSITION: 70% recycled denim, 25% virgin cotton, 5% other fibres. RCS (Recycled Claim Standard) certificate. What are other fibers? A small part of fibers derived from hems and other finishes present in recycled used clothing.
This garment is available in various shades of blue jeans: each batch is unique and depends on the regenerated garments available. For this reason, there may be some lighter and darker traces of "other fibres" in the yarn, which give a slightly melange effect to the garment.
WASHING CARE: The denim yarn of our sweaters behaves in a similar way to that of classic trousers. After wearing it a few times, a machine wash at 30° will bring it back to its original grip. If you wash by hand, spin lightly to drain the water and dry it on a horizontal surface.
Fit
REGULAR: This garment has a regular fit. We recommend your usual size.

Frequently asked questions
Are denim sweaters warm?
recycled denim is a cotton yarn and therefore lighter and more breathable than recycled wool or cashmere. It's perfect for transitional seasons, for those with sensitive skin or who prefer not to wear animal fibers. In winter, it can be layered easily.
Are denim garments stretchy?
recycled denim is not elastic, but it has a soft and flexible structure that naturally adapts to the body. The fit is regular — comfortable but not too loose. Always check the size guide to choose the best fit.
What is the effect when worn? Is it stiff like denim?
No, recycled denim sweaters are not stiff. Even though they originate from denim, our yarn has a soft and comfortable feel, perfect for everyday wear.
What is the difference between denim and cotton?
Cotton is a natural, soft, and breathable fiber used to make many types of fabric. Denim is a specific type of cotton fabric — a sturdy weave with a particular twill structure that gives it durability and the classic indigo color.
What color is denim?
Classic denim ranges from indigo to light blue, but its tone can vary based on washing and wear. In Rifò’s recycled denim pieces, the color isn’t dyed artificially — it comes from the blend of recovered jeans. That’s why each sweater or accessory may have slightly different hues, from deep denim blue to mottled blue-grey, making every item unique and sustainable.
