Compressive High-Rise Stretch-Jersey Leggings

Compressive leggings would have been destined to 500 years of clogging up the planet. You see, Girlfriend Collective creates its quick-drying, supportive fabric from recycled plastic water bottles. Whereas a water bottle can do little more than hold liquid, though, this high-waisted pair sees you through serene yoga classes, high-intensity workouts and low-energy days on the sofa – they’re versatile.

• 79% recycled polyester, 21% elastane

Transparency is the backbone of Girlfriend Collective, a one-stop-shop for ethically-made activewear with a pared-back, minimal aesthetic, inclusive sizing and an impressive commitment to responsibility at every level of production.
