The pants are made of organic cotton, which means they’ll be soft on your legs as well as your conscience. The fibers of organic cotton are longer and less brittle than those of chemically treated cotton, so they’ll feel softer than a normal pair of yoga pants. And because organic cotton takes less water to grow and doesn’t use polluting chemicals, you’ll feel better knowing you’re minimizing your environmental footprint.
The Wisdom Roll-Down Pant derives its name from a roll-down waist that can be adjusted to sit any place on your waist or hips. The pants come in a variety of colors – deep purple, pumpkin, black, charcoal and sugar (white) – as well as a variety of lengths, ranging from capri to regular to long.
This American company, based out of Boulder, Colorado, promotes the efforts of organic growers and recycles its shipping boxes to keep the company as green as possible.
The regular Wisdom Roll-Down Pant is available online for $65.
