W. X-LOOP TEE CLAY
W. X-LOOP TEE CLAY
The first 100% recycled and recyclable technical T-shirt, made from polyester tennis strings
Description
Tecnifibre's first product launch designed with a desire to reduce its environmental impact.
This technical T-shirt is 100% made from recycled polyester, half of which comes from tennis strings. Beyond the manufacturing of the product, Tecnifibre is committed to creating a collection programme for used polyester strings, all brands combined.
In 2024, collection was launched in France with around twenty specialist tennis stores, equipped with collectors: a real revolution for the brand and the tennis market!
Technically, it’s the lightest T-shirt designed by the brand, in a soft, comfortable knit in contact with the skin. This material is resistant thanks to the anti-abrasion, breathable properties of the strings: no chemical treatment used.
Only a natural antibacterial treatment is applied to the material, based on silver ions to prevent the proliferation of sweat bacteria which causes unpleasant odours. On the design side, the graphics blend into the material, with a gradient pattern that celebrates Tecnifibre’s Blason.

Project History
In 2023, Tecnifibre conducted its carbon footprint assessment using ADEME's Diag Décarbon'action method. It marked the beginning of an action plan for social responsibility. X-LOOP is Tecnifibre's first product launch born from this action. It presents an opportunity to encourage both leisure and professional players to adopt good practices.
Manufacturing Process
In collaboration with its string supplier in Wervicq-Sud (Nord), its stores and partner tennis tournaments such as the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters, Tecnifibre collects end-of-life strings. Infinite Athletic, another Tecnifibre partner, then takes over, transforming the used strings into small yarns used to manufacture these ultra-light, resistant and breathable T-shirts.
For this first collection, an X-loop T-shirt is made of 50% polyester strings and 50% plastic bottles, that is four tennis strings and two 1.5L bottles.
Technical Features
This is the lightest t-shirt designed by Tecnifibre, featuring a flexible and comfortable mesh. The material is durable thanks to the anti-abrasive properties of the strings, while also being breathable; no chemical treatments involved. Only a natural antibacterial treatment based on silver ions is applied to the material to prevent the proliferation of bacteria from sweat that cause odors.
From a design perspective, the graphics are integrated into the fabric with a gradient pattern celebrating the Tecnifibre logo.
