WHY TO BUY: The German company CHAKRANA creates all its beautiful yoga styles under fair and social conditions, bringing the craftsmanship know-how from years of experience into its styles. All the materials and ingredients they use are sourced in Europe to avoid unnecessary CO² emissions. The vegan organic material they comes from Portugal and is “Öko-Tex Standard 100” certified.

WHAT WE LOVE: The yoga look Kuschel-Shakti was made in Germany. The fluffy material is super comfortable thanks to its cozy peach finish and yet functional and very stretchy thanks to the elastane content. The certified organic cotton was produced in an environmentally friendly manner with social standards in mind and woven into an ultra-soft material made in Portugal. It is PETA Approved.

The special seams are made without any annoying seam allowances and they have also done without scratchy labels. The high waistband hugs your waist nicely, prevents unsightly stomach wrinkles during yoga or Pilates and allows you to breathe freely. The sporty seams flatter the figure and give the bottom a nice shape.

WHY TO BUY: DEFINITE ARTICLES it's about redefining comfort and sustainability in the world of performance wear. Their journey began with a simple yet powerful realization – traditional athletic wear was creating almost incomprehensible levels of plastic pollution and the growing prevalence of BPA and PFAS (so called toxic ‘forever chemicals’) were putting our bodies at risk.

WHAT WE LOVE: All DENIFITE ARTICLES are tested free of forever chemicals like BPA and PFAS. And while these ‘articles' are made to last, they use next generation, OKEO-TEX certified sustainable technology called CiCLO that enables traditional yarns like nylon and polyester to behave like natural fibers when they end up as pollutants in the environment and biodegrade in two to three years rather than centuries. It's time to change the game.
