Volcom Have Gone Green

Nowadays it seems that everyone/everything is going green. For surfboards to cars, well the world wide known Surf/Skate brand Volcom has joined the ranks of Eco-friendly brands with their brand new V.Co-Logical series of products. This new product line is going to be a summer line and will consist of 2 pairs of pants, 12 t-shirts and a hoodie. All these products are made from different types of Organic Cotton, Hemp and Fleece these are combined with low impact screen printing. A lot of the clothing has V.Co designs displaying plants and nature.

“ Organic garments from the Volcom V.Co-Logical Series represent Volcom’s socially responsible attempt to sustain and protect our planet’s rapidly shrinking natural resources. By utilizing sustainable alternatives like 100% certified organic cotton, hemp, vegetable dyes, organic stains and other low impact production methods, the Volcom V.Co-Logical series incorporates progressive Volcom styling with an environmentally clear conscience.” - Volcom Spokesman

The new Volcom logo for these products is very clever. For those of you that do not no what the Volcom logo normally is it is
As you can see the new logo has been planned on the outline of their well known logo. However the new logo wasn't the original design and was only accepted as another design that they had was not allowed to be published due to copyright standers.

Volcom has joined the ranks of 1% for the plant. This means that they donate 1% of their Gross Revenue to a professional environmental organization. Whether you believe in going green or not it is good or not you can agree that it is good to see world wide respected companies donating profits.

Volcom is just the begging of large major brands going into the Eco help the world campaigns. Well done to them. You can help support them and saving the planet by buying their products. I know a small local shop on the West Coast that sells these products. Its Piran surf in Perranporth there is a link to their website under my links.
