Even though Shane O\u2019Toole \u201915<\/strong> was born and raised in Downingtown, Pennsylvania, he will always consider the Wilson College of Textiles his home.

\u201cThis college not only gave me the skills I needed to succeed in the industry, but it has also given me a place to come back to whenever I am in town \u2014 to visit professors and former classmates who I\u2019ll never forget,\u201d O\u2019Toole says.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfter about two months into my program, I knew I wasn\u2019t ever going to leave. Since I was new to North Carolina, this college really became my whole world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When he was on campus, O\u2019Toole balanced his polymer and color chemistry<\/a> studies with his responsibilities as an NC State student-athlete \u2014 first as a preferred walk-on for the football team and then as a bullpen catcher on the Wolfpack baseball team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After earning his bachelor\u2019s degree in 2015, O\u2019Toole searched for jobs that would allow him to push the technological envelope and chase his passion for sustainability and athletic performance apparel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He found that in his role as the material development manager for Under Armour, where he developed products that utilized post-consumer recycled materials. Those products were worn and used at the highest levels \u2014 by world-class collegiate, professional, international and even Olympic athletes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His passion for sustainability led Shane O\u2019Toole \u201915 to develop his startup, MooseDog, which develops eco-conscious hybrid 3D-printed, zero-scrap performance shoes, hats and accessories.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA lot of people view sustainability and recycled or biodegradable products as inferior from a performance aspect,\u201d he says. \u201cBut that’s not the case. The two are harmoniously intertwined. It doesn\u2019t have to be just one or the other. I’m working to change that viewpoint in our industry.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his next role as the director of raw materials at Tegra Global, O\u2019Toole played a central role in instituting fabric waste recycling programs. He also led the way in helping the company provide relief during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI remember receiving a call from my CEO to develop masks for 13,000 employees and possibly for our customers. I asked when he needed them by, and he said \u2018yesterday.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, just like that, O\u2019Toole got to work. He drew from his experience working with medical devices at AccuMED Innovative Technologies to create masks with an 86% particulate filtration system to protect those in his work community and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was definitely a lot of sleepless nights, but I take a lot of pride in that.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, he\u2019s the senior manager of product development at Origin Materials<\/a>, which makes 100 percent bio-based polyester and other carbon-negative polymers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has also propelled the Carhartt and Tenere<\/a> brands, along with his own footwear startup, to success. His startup, MooseDog, focuses on the creation of eco-conscious hybrid 3D-printed, zero-scrap performance shoes, hats and accessories with degrees of biodegradability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Awarded for his commitment to sustainability and continued connection with the college<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On Feb. 9, O\u2019Toole was honored for his achievements within the industry when he was named an esteemed recipient of the 2022 Distinguished Young Alumni Award.

Established in 2021 by the Dean\u2019s Young Alumni Leadership Council<\/a> (DYALC) in the Wilson College, the Distinguished Young Alumni Award<\/a> program recognizes graduates under the age of 40 who have made significant contributions to the textile industry and their communities. The DYALC<\/a> works to promote the Wilson College of Textiles and the college\u2019s fundraising arm, the North Carolina Textile Foundation<\/a>, along with fostering continued engagement among young alumni.

Award winners are selected based on their professional achievements, alignment with the college\u2019s core values<\/a>, service to the industry, community involvement and entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s important to note that the thread that connected O\u2019Toole to the Wilson College of Textiles wasn\u2019t cut at graduation, even with his busy schedule. He currently serves as the college\u2019s young alumni representative in Charlotte and proudly connects young alumni and prospective industry partners to his alma mater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI made sure I stayed connected to the college after graduating so I could give back after all that the college had given to me.\u201d

That connection will soon include a future member of the Wilson Wolfpack: O\u2019Toole and his wife are expecting their first child in July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
