What is the best thing to wear when practicing yoga?
The best thing to wear during yoga practice is clothing that is comfortable, breathable and flexible. This usually consists of stretchy bottoms such as yoga pants, leggings or activewear shorts. For what top to wear during yoga, we recommend wearing a sports bra or breathable form-fitting top - try to avoid oversized t-shirts that may hang over your head and get in the way during certain yoga moves.

What is the most sustainable sports brand?
A couple of the most sustainable sports brands are, Girlfriend Collective and Patagonia, both of which are available here at Yogamatters. Both of these brands are dedicated to providing performance focused, comfortable activewear that is eco-friendly, sustainable and ethical in how it is produced and distributed.

Why is Girlfriend Collective sustainable?
Girlfriend Collective are self-proclaimed to be the "earth's number one fan" in reference to their creation of eco-friendly apparel and transparency surrounding the company's environmental impact. The brand uses sustainable materials, including recycled PET plastic and ECONYL® in its garments that are then coloured with low-impact dyes, ensuring that any water waste as a result is treated and discharged properly, without impacting the environment. They also have a ReGirlfirend program that allows customers to send back any old torn or worn Girlfriend pieces that can then be reused and upcycled into new ones, creating a more sustainable approach to activewear.
