Definite Articles’ Ethical & Sustainability Practices

CiCLO is this brand’s patented claim to fame. It’s an innovative technology that takes their synthetic fibers (both recycled and virgin) and helps them biodegrade at a much quicker pace. CiCLO nylon and recycled polyester will achieve 75-92% biodegradation in less than 2.5 years— compared to <4% biodegradation for the conventional nylon. Note: this does NOT mean their clothing can be composted. Across their product line, they use 23% BCI cotton, 23% CiCLO recycled polyester, 51% CiCLO nylon, and 3% spandex. Supply chain & labor practices: This Certified B Corp is dedicated to keeping their entire supply chain within the Americas, leading to greater traceability and fewer transportation emissions. Their Supplier Code of Conduct works to ensure all workers are treated and paid fairly. Carbon commitments & green practices:

Their clothing ships from a carbon-neutral fulfilment center. Inclusivity: Sizes run XS-XL, but the hyper stretchy fabric means each size accommodates a range of sizes (up to women’s 18). You’ll find men’s eco-friendly yoga clothes in S-XXL. Community & charitable giving: Through their partnership with One Tree Planted, Definite Articles has so far planted over 1,000 trees in Oregon—and “we’re just getting started”. They donate 2% of annual revenue to environmental causes and nonprofits.
