As environmentally conscious Americans we try to incorporate an eco-lifestyle into as many aspects of our lives as possible, whether it be in the form of energy conservation or simply eating organic food from a local farmers market.

One of the largest online women’s activewear and fitness clothing retailers has recently announced the next step in staying eco-friendly in all aspects of our lives; they’ve created a new eco-friendly workout clothing department.

The development of this department, says ActivewearUSA.com, was created from a direct response from their customers demanding a high-performance, stylish workout gear that had little to no impact on the environment.

“Our customers are actively looking for socially and environmentally conscious fitness apparel,” says Avi Woolman, Founder and CEO of ActivewearUSA.com. “We have selected some of the best eco-fitness brands that are focused on both performance and style.”

How is the clothing eco-friendly?

ActivewearUSA.com created their new line of eco-friendly clothing from all-natural materials. The goal of this new line was to make clothing that could not only be comfortable during a work-out, but was also stylish enough to run errands without looking like you just came from the gym.

For example, according to the ActivewearUSA.com website, their Green Apple Active line of clothing is “made from naturally technical fabrics with high performance for every active need. Made with natural, plant-based anti-bacterial technology, it is moisture wicking, highly breathable, anti-bromic (odor free), 99% uva/uvb protected, thermal regulating and eco-friendly!”

The website also promotes this line of eco-friendly workout clothing to be so versatile that you can wear it out in the town after you work out. I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty sure I don’t want to wear crop pants and a beater out to happy hour after I’ve spent 2 hours sweating in it. But hey, supposedly its sweat proof, so to each their own!

Another eco-friendly workout wear brand that can be found at ActivewearUSA.com is GGO clothing. This brand of eco-friendly workout clothing boasts being “simple and comfortable. This brand is environmentally aware and focused on luxurious Yoga clothing that is kind to the earth.”

A favorite amongst ActivewearUSA.com customers are Be Love T-shirts, a sweatshop-free and mostly organic cotton line for women. BeLove’s founders are board members of Common Peace: The Center for the Advancement of Nonviolence.
