The fashion and athletic apparel industry faces significant challenges, especially regarding plastic pollution and textile waste. Conventional polyester garments rely heavily on virgin petroleum resources, contributing to carbon emissions and landfill overflow.

- Utilizing a four-way stretch microfiber fabric that is moisture-wicking, breathable, and fast-drying to reduce water usage during washing.
- Designed without inner lining and featuring mesh side pockets to promote airflow and comfort naturally.
At the end of their life cycle, these shorts are more easily recyclable due to the predominance of recycled polyester, supporting circular fashion initiatives. Their durable construction also means fewer replacements over time, reducing overall textile waste.
