You’ve cut out processed foods, ditched toxic people, and maybe even upgraded your skincare. But what about your clothes?
Especially your activewear. The stuff you wear closest to your skin, when your pores are wide open and you’re working up a sweat.
If you’re still wearing leggings, bras, or tanks made with polyester, nylon, or spandex, you might be sweating in a cocktail of chemicals and microplastics—tiny plastic fibers that shed into your body, your water, and the planet.
And honestly? You deserve better.
What Are Microplastics?
Microplastics are microscopic fibers that shed from synthetic materials during washing, wearing, and even stretching. In the context of workout clothing, these fibers are released every time you move, sweat, or clean your gear.
They enter our water systems, linger in our air, and have now been found in human lungs, blood, and even breast milk.
Microplastics and Your Body
The skin is your largest organ, and it absorbs what you put on it. During exercise, your pores open, your body heats up, and you're more likely to absorb chemicals and residues from your clothing.
Synthetic activewear often contains:
😣 Plastic-based fibers (like polyester, nylon, elastane/spandex)
😣 Toxic chemical treatments (such as flame retardants, dyes, and antimicrobial coatings)
😣 Moisture-trapping structures that can lead to skin irritation, odor, and breakouts
Many of these materials are not only unbreathable, they’re potential endocrine disruptors, meaning that they may interfere with hormone balance over time.
For those who care about full-body wellness, this matters.
What’s the Alternative?
At Kansha, we believe wellness should extend beyond your routine and into your wardrobe. That’s why we create plant-based, plastic-free activewear designed to support your body naturally.
Our bamboo-based fabrics are:
✅ Breathable and thermoregulating
✅ Naturally antimicrobial (goodbye, odor!)
✅ Free from microplastics and harsh chemicals
✅ Soft enough for sensitive skin
Whether you're stretching, running, or simply resting, your clothes should move with you, not work against your health.
Strong, Soft, and Clean By Nature
Wellness is a lifestyle. And what touches your skin should reflect the care you put into everything else, from your food to your fitness.
By choosing nontoxic, biodegradable materials, you’re doing more than reducing pollution, you’re protecting your body from the inside out.
Because strength never felt so soft.
