Rukka salutes Olympics with Spinnova-based top
Luhta Sportswear and Spinnova are pursuing their ongoing collaboration with the release of a T-shirt made from the innovative wood-based fibre. It. Is part of Rukka’s collection and tribute to the Paris Olympics this summer. Available in either deep blue or white, the top is made from a blend of 68% cotton, 29% wood-based Spinnova fibre and 3% elastane.

The two Finnish companies had partnered in 2022, for the winter Olympic games in Beijing, and had made an over-the-shoulder bag for the Finnish athletes participating in the event. The T-shirt thus marks the first item of clothing available to consumers made from Spinnova fibre by a Luhta-owned brand.
