Women's Organic Cotton Leggings

Product Details: Fabric Type: 100% organic Pima cotton Care Instructions: Machine Wash Origin: Imported Closure Type: Pull On

About this Item: The all-cotton leggings do not fit as tight as typical synthetic leggings, so it's recommended to size down if between sizes. The fabric is made from organic Peruvian Pima Cotton, and the all-cotton Interlock fabric is spandex-free, knit to achieve 'mechanical stretch' so the leggings will stretch and move with you. The yarns are certified by GOTS, and the dyes are certified to Oeko-tex standard. The fit is slim but not too tight, with a comfortable, flat-lying elastic waistband. The inseam is 30 inches. The product is made in a Fair Trade factory in Lima, Peru.

Product Description: When fashion is done right, everyone can do well: consumers, businesses, farmers, garment workers, and the earth we all share. Fair Indigo clothing provides the means to a happy, healthy life for all involved in its production. Thanks to you, they work in safe surroundings - not sweatshops - and earn a fair wage that enables them to house, feed, and care for their families and strengthen their communities. You're helping fashion a better future with every piece you wear.

Essential Building Blocks for Your Sustainable Wardrobe: Building a sustainable wardrobe starts with essential pieces you can wear just about anywhere. All-cotton leggings are hard to find (especially organic), but Fair Indigo's earn rave reviews from everyone who slips them on. The fit is slim but not too tight, and the super soft and substantial double-knit 100% organic Pima cotton fabric retains its shape and launders beautifully season after season.

It Starts with Organic Pima Cotton from Peru: If you love organic food, but hadn't given much thought to cotton, consider this: cotton occupies only 3% of the world's farmland, but it consumes a whopping 25% of all pesticides. Setting aside the fact that we probably don't want pesticides lurking in our clothes, cotton pesticides in particular are even stronger than many food crop pesticides and can cause grave damage to farmland and adjacent eco-systems.

True Colors: Fair Indigo uses non-toxic, Oeko-tex safe dyes that are the gentlest commercially available and free from harmful substances like azo colorants, formaldehyde, and pentachlorophenol. This is a sustainable upgrade from the harsh dyes that are everyone in the clothing world today. Better for the earth, for garment workers, and for you!

Fairly Made in Peru: There is no better place on earth to make clothing. The quality of Peru's most famous fibers - Pima cotton and alpaca - is legendary. Then there are the people of Peru - some of the happiest, friendliest, and most generous people you'll ever meet. On top of all that goodness, their apparel making skills are unmatched – handed down through generations, literally from the time of the Incas. There are thousands of workers here able, willing, and happy to make your clothes. They just need the chance to do so.

More Goodness Is In The Details: Artisan Quality: Our skilled artisans are highly trained, well paid, and pay attention to the little things that make a garment all that better for the long haul. Our fabrics are pre-washed, pre-shrunk and will endure beautifully for years of enthusiastic use.

Thoughtfully Designed Fit: Unless otherwise noted, our tops and tees are gently shaped, not too loose or too tight, accentuating your shape without being clingy.

Our Bags Are Fully Degradable. Like a Leaf.: While the bag remains as strong as ever during normal use, it breaks down completely in the natural environment, leaving no plastic remnants behind. The bags are 91% degradable within 24 months, breaking down into water, CO2, and a small amount of biomass.
