Athleta Gets Sustainable

Sponsored by Athleta

Athleta is a brand I’ve always admired. They reached out to me to play with their new sustainable line. I was only happy to oblige.

This year, Athleta received its B Corporation Certification, creating a legal commitment to people and the planet. By 2020, 80% of Athleta’s materials will be made with sustainable fibers.

With outerwear, Athleta is keeping 460,000 bottles out of landfills this year alone. Sustainably managed forests provide the fabric for ever so soft tops. Bottoms are created from recycled materials.
