Girlfriend Collective is officially the sustainable, inclusive sportswear brand at the top of our radar.
Sustainability is more than a buzzword of 2020. More than ever, we are motivated to choose brands that are eco-friendly, ethical, and inclusive in their branding and sizing.
Girlfriend Collective is the latest sportswear brand to pop up on our radar that ticks all the boxes. Each pair of leggings is made from 25-recycled water bottles. They’re also comfortable, flattering, and hella stylish.
Better still, their collection includes a range of leggings with pockets. This completely solves the problem of figuring out where to put your phone when you go for a run.
Girlfriend Collective shared the story of how they started with Sports Edit, who wrote: “The founders wanted to create an activewear line that was luxurious and of the highest quality, but that also guaranteed no environmental or social damage in its production.
“With their mantra that ‘good things come to those who don’t waste’, they make all their fabrics using recycled, post-consumer materials, like single-use water bottles and discarded fishing nets cleaned from the seas. Because, as they put it: Old water bottles and fishing nets look better on you than they do clogging landfills and polluting oceans.”
