The 6 Best Sustainable Activewear Brands For An Eco-Conscious Sweat Sesh

Whether you’re a gym junkie or not, it really doesn’t matter. When it comes to rocking a chic set of activewear, actually working out isn’t a prerequisite. 

From a spin class to running errands, head-to-toe exercise gear is the outfit of choice for anyone seeking both comfort and style. 

And the benefits don’t have to end there, either. From ethically produced garments to recycled fabrics, you can now ensure your workout ensemble is also eco-conscious. 

Here are our favourite brands offering sustainable activewear in Australia.


Nimble Activewear

Ever wondered where your recycled plastic bottles end up going? Well, Nimble grants them a second life, transforming them into luxe sports bras, workout tops and leggings. But it’s not just the bottles that are being given a helping hand at a new start; with every purchase, $1 is also being donated to support women’s shelters across Australia.
