Doing Our Best: Why We Choose Natural Fabrics and Slower Fashion at bai active

Imperfectly eco-conscious, skin-loving, and designed for real life.

Let’s be honest — the most eco-conscious thing you can do is buy less.
But when we do choose to buy, we believe those choices matter.

At bai active, we don’t claim to be perfect, but we do care deeply. About your skin, the planet, and how our clothes are made. That’s why we use mostly natural fabrics, keep things small and intentional, and design activewear that feels good enough to live in — not just sweat in.

Here’s what “doing our best” looks like for us:

🌿 We believe in better, not perfect.

Most activewear is made from synthetic fibres like polyester and nylon — plastic, made from oil. They don’t breathe, they shed microplastics, and they stay on this planet basically forever.

We didn’t want that on our skin (or yours).
So we chose mostly natural materials like bamboo and organic cotton, with just a dash of elastane for stretch. Not perfect — but a much better option.

✨ We design for real life. And real life is messy.

You live in your activewear – to move, work, stretch, lounge, run after kids, chase dogs, chase dreams. So we make pieces that feel amazing, are ethically made, and last longer when you care for them right.

And if they help you move more during your day? That’s good for you and the planet.

🤎 We produce slowly, intentionally, and in small batches.

We don’t drop new collections every week.
We don’t overproduce.
We work with a small team in Bali and make what we believe in – timeless, comfy, good-on-skin pieces that won’t go out of style next season.

🌿 So where do we stand?

We care.
We ask questions.
We skip plastic packaging.
We keep our materials as natural as possible.
And we believe that mindful choices – even small ones – add up.

Because when movement feels good, and clothes feel good, you’re more likely to move through the day with intention. And that’s good for your body, your brain, and yep, even the earth.

Final Word:

We’re not here to guilt you into saving the planet through leggings.
But if you’re going to wear activewear, we think it should feel good, look good, and do a little less harm.

Less plastic. More movement.
That’s bai active.
