Welcome to Project571, the only online store for organic collegiate and alternative apparel. Our apparel is made from the finest organically grown cotton and bamboo as well as recycled polyester made from recycled plastic bottles. These materials generate a softer, healthier, higher quality and more environmentally friendly product. Visit our website today!

Project571 offers two types of Organic Apparel, Collegiate and Alternative. All of the products we sell are made form organic cotton, bamboo, or recycled polyester. We start with a super soft comfortable apparel and end up with a vintage look and stylish fit.

P571 is the first and only company to bring organics into the Collegiate Apparel market. We design organic t-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, and sweatpants for a number of major universities. Educating young people on the effects of global warming is priority number one. P571 allows students, fans and alumni to express their support for the environment as well as their favorite universities by wearing organic collegiate apparel. Project571 is proud to give students and alumni that option.

Our Organic Alternative line is equally unique. We design our alternative line with nature and fashion in mind. This unique hybrid of style and sustainability is what makes our alternative line so unique. All of the alternative clothing is made from high end organics material with a super soft feel and a trendy fit.
