A Vegan Merino Wool Alternative : Pistol Lake's Animal-Free Eudae

At Pistol Lake, we've always set out to make the most comfortable, sustainable clothing in the world. And while doing so, we created a vegan alternative to Merino Wool that we've named Eudae [You-Day].

After two years of development, we finally found the perfect recipe. -- Our midweight Eudae (the weight that best emulates Merino's properties) is made from 76% recycled bottles (polyester), 19% Eucalyptus pulp (Tencel), and 5% Spandex.

Even with all that recycled tech locked inside, Eudae feels like soft, premium cotton but with all the benefits of the sustainable, eco-friendly fabrics we've come to love. It's the most comfortable fabric blend we’ve ever felt and each long sleeve tee is made from around 10 recycled bottles.

Of course, that’s not the only reason why we’re excited to sell Eudae-based products either. We're big on minimalism. But not the  

By sewing locally in Los Angeles and skipping some of the more harmful steps in creation for Eudae products altogether, we’re proud to offer our conciencious adventurers a new alternative.

At the end of the day, we’re not pretending to be staunch vegans ourselves, but we made a conscious decision to base the primary ingredient of Midweight-Eudae on a renewable source -- thus taking livestock and pollution out of the equation completely.
