Cloudy day, sunny painting, stretchy clothes




[Top: Athleta | Bottoms: SOLOW]

These pants are by SOLOW, and I only have good things to say about them. SOLOW is manufactured here in the US. These pants are made out of their signature fabric, Eclon. Their Eclon performance fabric is wicking and Blue-Sign certified sustainable (although, I haven't researched what Blue-Sign sustainable means). I do know that these pants are really soft, feel cool in a hot class, and are not see-thru. The fabric is really stretchy and comfy and appears to be made extremely well. I expect that these pants will last me a long time, and I like that I am supporting jobs here in the US by purchasing them. These pants are actually navy, with orange contrast stitching.

The top is by Athleta, also soft, stretchy, and cool. With a sports bra underneath, you are good to go. I think it is a little too long in length though, so it starts to roll up at the bottom. With a little adjusting, it's a fun top. I like the detail embroidery on the back of the shirt.

Recycled plastic bottles into yoga pants! Yes!

Hold the phone.

You can create yoga pants from recycled plastic bottles.

You can buy these pants and they are cute.

AND they are all USA made, something else to feel good about.

I want to order ten pairs!

My favorites are the sun short denim.. they look like cute denim cut-offs.

And these Hot Desert Pants:

The company is called Teeki, and you can find them here. They also have swim wear and active wear tops made from the recycled plastic. You can read about their eco process and the story of their company on their website. Reduce waste and support jobs in the USA. These yoga clothes are winners in my book. They are even less expensive then other yoga brands!
