Q-Nova x R-Evenge
Q-Nova, Fulgar’s sustainable polyamide 6.6 yarn, has been chosen by Italian barefoot footwear specialist R-Evenge for the development of a collection of technical socks designed for wellness, fitness, and water-based activities.
R-Evenge focuses on restoring the foot’s natural freedom of movement. The brand encourages a closer connection between the foot and the ground, helping users become more aware of plantar sensations. Through footwear and socks developed using foot biomechanics principles, R-Evenge aims to improve balance, stability, and body awareness during movement.
Throughout the collection, the goal is to enhance the foot’s natural movement while providing comfort, breathability, and stability during physical activity.
The choice of Q-Nova highlights the shared focus of Fulgar and R-Evenge on sustainability across the textile value chain. Manufactured through a mechanical recycling process, the yarn helps reduce the consumption of virgin raw materials and recovers industrial waste, while continuing to deliver high levels of quality and performance.
Along with its sustainability benefits, Q-Nova offers a lightweight structure, softness, and excellent comfort against the skin. These qualities make it particularly suitable for technical products developed for fitness, wellness, and active lifestyles.
