U.S. Sustainable Yoga Wear Brand Collaborates with Bloomto

Summary

Bloomto welcomed a U.S. sustainable yoga wear brand with 130k Instagram followers seeking upgraded fabrics. The client focuses on eco-friendly leggings, sports bras, and hoodies. During the visit, Bloomto showcased TENCEL™ Lyocell and organic cotton brushed fabrics and provided guidance on garment construction. The client was impressed with our expertise and supply chain, and is now moving into fabric selection and sample development for future collaboration.

Client Background

The visiting client is a U.S.-based independent yoga wear brand with an established online presence. The brand has built a strong community on Instagram, with approximately 130,000 followers, and primarily sells through its own website. Its product focus is centered on sustainable activewear, including yoga leggings, sports bras, and short-sleeve tops, with a strong commitment to eco-friendly materials and responsible production.

Prior to this visit, the client had attended the Canton Fair, gaining initial exposure to the Chinese manufacturing ecosystem. This factory visit to Bloomto was aimed at further evaluating production capabilities and sourcing more suitable sustainable fabrics for long-term development.

Project Kickoff

The client’s main objective during the visit was to develop and upgrade eco-friendly fabric solutions. Their key requirements included:

  • Thicker yet soft TENCEL™ Lyocell fabrics for yoga leggings, combining a smooth hand feel with improved support and structure;
  • Organic cotton brushed fabrics for hoodies, offering warmth, softness, and compliance with sustainability standards.

Key Requirements

  • Sustainable fabric enhancement: Upgrading existing TENCEL™ materials to higher-GSM, higher-rebound options suitable for performance yoga wear;
  • Comfort and functionality: Fabrics must deliver stretch, support, and durability while remaining breathable and skin-friendly;
  • Long-term partnership: The client sought a manufacturer with strong R&D capability, consistent quality control, and scalable production.

Our Solutions

  1. Professional fabric selection and comparison: We prepared multiple TENCEL™ Lyocell fabrics with varying weights and structures, highlighting differences in softness, stretch, recovery, and opacity to help the client identify the optimal solution for yoga leggings.
  2. Organic cotton brushed fabric recommendations: For hoodie development, we presented several organic cotton brushed fabric options, explaining yarn composition, fabric weight, thermal performance, and finished garment behavior.
  3. Application-driven technical guidance: Based on the client’s existing product line, we offered practical recommendations on fabric application, garment construction, and pattern optimization for leggings, bras, and hoodies.

Project Progress

The client expressed strong confidence in Bloomto’s expertise in sustainable fabrics and activewear manufacturing. The collaboration has progressed into the fabric selection and sampling phase, laying the groundwork for upgrading both yoga leggings and hoodie collections.

Conclusion

Through this in-depth factory visit and technical discussion, the client reinforced their trust in Bloomto’s capabilities in sustainable fabric development and custom activewear production. We look forward to building a long-term partnership and jointly delivering high-performance, eco-conscious activewear to the global market.
