Pangaia, a London, U.K.-based company that specializes in making use of smart technology and highly sustainable materials in order to create a wide array of products for the modern lifestyle, has launched new leggings and sports bras for women who want to combine high performance with a sustainable ethos.
The 'Motion' leggings and sports bras are both constructed out of nylon that is 99.9 percent plant-based, not to mention Hyosung creora spandex that happens to be nearly one-third plant-based. However, what's great about both these products is that their use of sustainable materials does not hamper their performance attributes in any way, shape or form, with both the sports bra and the leggings offering exceptional comfort and activewear performance.
