Zero Waste
VYRN is built on a simple idea: make only what’s needed, make it to last, and waste as little as possible. By stripping away the excess of traditional retail, we help you venture your resilient nature with a lighter footprint.
Made to order, not mass produced
Every VYRN piece is crafted specifically for you when you order it. We don’t run big batches or keep piles of unsold stock sitting in a warehouse. This deliberate pace means fewer dead-end products, fewer markdown bins, and far less textile waste overall.
Carbon-neutral from door to door
We believe a resilient nature starts with responsible logistics. For every order that leaves our facility, we fund cutting-edge carbon removal technologies—like direct air capture and mineralization—to neutralize the shipping emissions completely. It’s not just about "less bad"; it’s about actively funding the solution.
100% eco materials, from fabric to mailer
Our commitment doesn’t stop at the garment. Your order arrives in recycled and recyclable packaging, inside and out.
- The outer mailer is made from 100% recycled plastic and is fully recyclable.
- The inner garment bag uses approximately 70–80% post‑consumer recycled plastic.

What happens to exchanged items?
On the rare occasion that a piece comes back to us (like for a size exchange), we don’t throw it away. Returns are inspected and, whenever possible, put to work as samples for events, local pop‑ups, or community projects in the New Jersey area.
How you can help
- Choose carefully: Use the size guide on every product page so we get it right the first time.
- Recycle the packaging: Check your local guidelines for recycling soft plastics (often #4 LDPE).
- Wear it longer: Nothing is more sustainable than a garment that stays in your rotation for years.
Zero waste is a direction, not a checkbox. We’ll keep looking for better fabrics, better packaging, and better ways to extend the life of every piece we make.
