When we set out to create EveryRep, we knew finding the right sustainable activewear fabric would make or break everything. We weren’t satisfied with “good enough.” When we created EveryRep, we set out to find a fabric that didn’t just perform — it had to feel incredible, support intense training, and align with our values of environmental responsibility. That kind of fabric didn’t just fall into our lap. It took trial, frustration, and a lot of failed samples.
Most activewear out there relies on cheap synthetics — polyester and nylon blends that trap heat, irritate skin, and leave behind plastic waste that lingers for centuries. Sure, they’re stretchy and inexpensive. But comfort? Breathability? Biodegradability? Not even close.
Most brands settle for convenience. We didn’t. Finding a truly sustainable activewear fabric meant rejecting dozens of synthetic blends…we tested better options:
Cotton lacked stretch, held onto sweat, and consumed an embarrassing amount of fresh water just to make a single t-shirt. Over 700 gallons!
Rayon and bamboo blends sounded sustainable, but they lost shape fast and didn’t hold up under pressure.
Even premium-feeling synthetics fell apart when tested against our real-world standards.
Then we found TENCEL™ Modal — and everything changed.
Made from sustainably harvested beechwood, TENCEL™ Modal is luxuriously soft, naturally breathable, and gentle on even the most sensitive skin. Unlike conventional fabrics, it wicks moisture without clinging or suffocating. It holds its shape. It moves with you. And best of all? It breaks down responsibly, without polluting landfills with microplastic waste.
Yes — it costs more. But to us, that’s not a drawback. It’s a reflection of its quality, its integrity, and its impact. Because when you build something better, you invest in better materials.
This isn’t fabric for the sake of fashion. It’s fabric with purpose.
At EveryRep, we chose the hard route: countless hours of sourcing, testing, and rejecting what didn’t meet our standards. Because when it comes to what touches your skin — every rep, every stretch, every grind — it should feel like it was made for you and the planet. Our standard is higher because we train, live, and recover in our gear just like you. Choosing sustainable activewear fabric wasn’t just an eco-decision — it was a performance one. The result is gear that fits like a second skin, breathes naturally, and breaks down without leaving a trace. That’s how we move forward — for your body and the planet.
