As part of the spring/summer collection 2026, Marc Cain Sports presents a pioneering T-shirt that combines design, comfort and sustainability in an innovative way. The model was designed in such a way that it is almost completely biodegradable under real environmental conditions.

Made from GOTS-certified organic cotton, sewn with biodegradable lyocell yarn and equipped with a cotton care label and cradle-to-cradle®-compliant printing ink, the T-shirt stands exemplary for a consistent circulatory thinking.

The design convinces with maritime charm: a stylized sailboat motif and a nautically inspired look adorn the front. The statement slogan “Respect of our oceans” strengthens the sustainable message. A QR code on the back leads to a specially designed website, on which customers learn more about the origin of the product, the materials used and the underlying environmentally conscious concept.

Certain environmental conditions are required for biological mining – including moisture, oxygen and microbial life. The independent Hohenstein Laboratories GmbH & Co. KG is currently carrying out long -term tests to check how efficiently the materials are decomposed under realistic conditions.

The T-shirt is part of the “Salty Breeze” collection and will be available in retail and in the online shop from March 2026.
