Our Fabric
Our fabric story
As a mom of little ones, I grew tired of leggings that wore out quickly and didn't fit right and weren't good for the planet. So, I set out on a mission to create sustainable fabric that met high quality expectations of moms ands dads like me. I asked myself questions like...
"Does durable fabric have to be thick and comfortable?" "Can I ensure absolute softness while keeping the shape and comfort that leggings require?"
After an 18 month research and development process, I landed on one of the most innovative and eco-friendly fabrics with the highest quality and softness - for super comfort - charcoal bamboo.
Our products are made from 86% charcoal bamboo, 14% Lycra.
Charcoal bamboo, is commonly known as the black diamond in Japan and Southeast Asia. It is high in potassium, calcium and magnesium, all beneficial to your health. The combination of Lycra enables a 4-way stretch and ensure the leggings move comfortably with you and maintains shape overtime.
Why we love charcoal bamboo, it is:
- Softer and stronger than cotton
- Flexible fitting
- UV Protecting (get outdoors and feel protected)
- Hypo-allergenic (great for sensitive skin)
- Sweat absorbing
- Quick drying (try swimming with our leggings and sports bra's)
- Static Resistant
- Highly breathable keeping you cool in all temperatures
- Bamboo grows rapidly with minimal water and pesticides
- Long Lasting (Let's slow fashion down a bit)
Our fabric is one of our pride and joys.
How we turn raw bamboo into our custom fabric:
- Raw bamboo is harvested in the dry season
- The bamboo is converted to charcoal by heating it in 800 degrees
- Charcoal bamboo nano-particles are embedded into traditional bamboo fibres, finally we add Lycra for the 4-way stretch.
