    Thanks so much Ana. I am researching FOV materials and am in touch with Pernilla. It is a STEEP learning curve!! I realise that I have to answer this question first… How waterproof do the trousers need to be and like you said they need to be BOMB PROOF for children so I think I will need to opt for a recycled nylon/polyester. I think in my naivety I had high expectations of creating a totally organic garment but I see now why all my competitors use recycled plastic bottle material… regretting my last week’s blog asking why brands do this instead of using natural materials! We live and learn. I am also looking at ECONYL, I think Patagonia use it. Thanks again, Sally ps have a good weekend
