Ethical Workout Clothes To Make You Feel Great Inside and Out
These conscious activewear labels choose to operate their businesses in open and transparent ways by being honest about the countries they manufacture in and how they choose the factories to partner with. We need more responsible clothing brands like these.
The brands manufacturing ethical workout clothes in places like China or Vietnam, partner with factories that meet internationally recognized ethical standards.
There are many initiatives to shore up ethical workplace standards overseas. The main initiatives are the Ethical Trading Initiative code (ETI), Intertek's Workplace Conditions Assessment (WCA), the Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit (SMETA), and The SA8000 Standard, which is the world's leading social certification program.
Other brands choose to manufacture close to home to ensure ethical standards are continually upheld. MICHI, seen here, and LIVE THE PROCESS, for instance, manufacture in North America.
