Protecting the places we play
For 15 years, our pursuit of excellence in materials has defined our commitment to quality. At Club Ride, we believe that the true essence of clothing lies in its fabric, and we are steadfast in our dedication to reducing impact on the planet by using sustainable textiles.
Our mission to empower life around two wheels also comes with the responsibility of fostering positive influence. We continuously evaluate our footprint, and our goal is to have 90% of our clothing manufactured under recycled standards.

What is recycled fabric?
Club Ride utilizes rPET - a sustainable alternative to virgin polyester. While virgin polyester is derived from crude oil and consumes excessive amounts of water and chemicals for its production, rPET is crafted from plastic bottles and boxes that are spun into polyester filaments.
This process not only grants a second, or sometimes even a third, life to non-biodegradable materials that would otherwise end in landfills but also significantly reduces water usage and chemical emissions, resulting in an overall lower carbon footprint. On average, 9 plastic bottles yield enough fiber to produce one shirt.
can you really have the best of both worlds?
Short answer, yes. In our search for the finest technical and functional fabric, we began by blending rPET filaments with a touch of cotton. This carefully balanced blend adds a luxuriously soft hand feel and delivers all-day comfort, while the recycled polyester offers excellent durability, moisture-wicking and quick drying properties. We also added 11% spandex into the material weave, allowing better freedom of movement during activities by delivering optimal stretch and recovery while maintaining breathability.
