I ordered a set of Baritone Uke strings - turns out I got the new Bio Nylon type. Here is what Aquila's website says:
About Bionylon®
We are proud to introduce the Bionylon® , the first eco-friendly synthetic string in the world. These Ukulele strings are made of rounded, smooth Bionylon® monofilaments - a new material discovered by us- that also boasts excellent acoustic and mechanical properties. Bionylon® is 100% a plant’s derivate (castor oil); this allows a reduction of more of 50% of carbon dioxide's emissions in the atmosphere during the polymer- synthesis than the other common Nylons employed for musical strings. Warm and mellow perfomances!
Anybody tried them? What do you think?

I've been keeping an eye out for brown ones. Are these not white like the usual ones? I'll check their website.

Looking at them on their website, they're kind of a greenish beige color.

Well, I don't know about anyone else but I'm waiting for a full report on tone, volume, ease of playability, stretching, play-in problems, etc. etc. etc.
