Lenzing Modal®, one of Dharma Bums' biodegradable fabrics is a soft and luxurious fabric derived from sustainably sourced raw beech wood. Modal fibres can be reverted back into nature as they are certified as compostable and biodegradable.
Dharma Bums speciality, organic Pima Cotton, is luxurious cotton made from extra-long fibres, meaning this all-natural cotton is more durable and softer than regular cotton. With a silk-like handle and luxe lustre, it has an extra-refined quality.

The ancient Ayurvedic texts describe Vyayama as a movement designed to stabilise and strengthen the body. Vyayama activewear is based on this holistic approach with the intention of providing a natural alternative to synthetic activewear. They believe that the products we use should be held to the same standards that we hold for ourselves. Mindfulness should inspire quality, beauty, and joy, and so do their products.

Vyayama uses only natural or noble fibres that are OEKOTEX® certified safe for the wearer, sourced sustainably and made ethically. Currently, they have fabrics such as TENCEL®, Micromodal®, and CUPRO®.

Vyayama TENCEL® is crafted in Europe from sustainably farmed eucalyptus. It is Eco-Awarded and Certified Non-Toxic, kind to your skin and kind to the Earth.

Micromodal® is sourced from Beechwood grown sustainably in Europe in natural Beechwood forests. Beech trees are especially ecological as they grow by "rejuvenation", which means that the trees propagate themselves and no artificial irrigation or planting is required, making Beechwood forests a completely natural and sustainable source of raw material.

CUPRO® is extremely smooth and silky to touch cotton-like fabric. It is a regenerated cellulose fibre derived from cotton linter. Cotton linter is the short downy fibre that enfolds the cotton seeds. The unused silky fibres are not used in cotton production, meaning fibres that are normally unused can be transformed into this beautiful resource. Cupro is hypoallergenic, anti-static and resistant to stretching out of shape at higher temperatures and can be machine washed and dried.

All of Vyayamas fabrics are the third-party tested and certified safe for the wearer and the environment by the European Oeko-Tex Standard 100. The certification ensures that no harmful toxins from either fibres or the production process could possibly be absorbed by the skin while wearing.

Yoga Democracy is a brand putting a lot of thought into where their fabric comes from and what it is made of, but also how it’s going to make you look and feel. Texture, shape retention and sweat-wicking also play a big part in the design. This label from Arizona is producing their garments in their own factory empowering many local lives and especially women. Yoga Democracy aims to produce 95% of their products using only recycled fibres.

Yoga Democracy has its own fully integrated in-house production process that aims to reduce the water impact and carbon footprint and creates a safe and fair working environment. Yoga Democracy wants to offer consumer-friendly prices with worker-friendly costs. Super low prices often mean costs which we as consumers don’t see. 80% of garment workers globally are women earning ridiculously low wages having far-reaching consequences. All Yoga Democracy's workers earn at least 20-25% higher salary than the recommended local base salary. Their prices are a fair reflection of the costs of their production, and they want to offer people the right to earn a living believing that their happy employee's input can also be seen in the quality of their products.
