Escape the Plastics

Most clothes are made with plastics, petroleum derivatives, and/or synthetic chemicals.

Our skin is our largest organ and should NOT be touching harmful, hormone & endocrine-disrupting materials.

What's touching our private parts drastically impacts our hormones, testosterone, reproductive health, libido, and overall well-being.

No polyester, spandex, or any other petrochemicals

  • Keep your hormones & endocrine system safe

    Petrochemicals on your skin - like polyester and spandex - disrupt the endocrine system and lead to dysregulated hormones, affecting metabolism, reproductive health, energy levels, growth, mood, and inflammatory responses. E.g., polyester mimics estrogen in the body and can reduce testosterone and sperm quality! Petroleum-derived fabrics are full of PFAs, BPA/S, Phthalates and the like. These chemicals are known to damage biological systems.

  • Ditch the microplastics and "forever chemicals"

    Derived ultimately from oil and essentially a plastic, polyester, spandex, and anything else with an alien-sounding name, can take hundreds of years to decompose. Not to mention that they fragment into "micro particles" that pollute the environment; just look up the Pacific Gyre, a massive swirling, plastic trash zone in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Clearly not so good for anything living! This is why we use only organic, nature-found fabrics like cotton.
