Vuori: Activewear For Any Occasion

Share

Choosing wardrobe essentials for Seattle’s diverse climate—characterized by frequent rain and summer heatwaves—is a constant juggling act. As an active, working girl in the Pacific Northwest, my days vary from dressing up for the office to dressing down for a lake day, bundling up for snow or shedding layers for a yoga class. Luckily, I’ve found a brand that makes this simple. Enter Vuori.

In the saturated landscape of performance apparel, finding a brand that lives up to its promises is no easy feat. Amidst the haystack, Vuori is the exception. Having put their products to the test, Vuori has become my go-to for anything the Northwest throws at me. The coastal California lifestyle brand separates itself from the rest with attention to detail, stylish versatility, sustainable production practices and most notably, ultra-soft materials. I can always count on Vuori to fit and feel as good as it performs.

At the epitome of comfort, The DreamKnit™ Performance Joggers are my top choice for almost any activity. A luxurious blend of buttery-soft performance stretch knit fabric made with 89% recycled polyester, these joggers prioritize comfort and breathability without compromising on style. With a slim but relaxed fit, a slightly cropped leg, side pockets and a drawstring, they are the pants you’ll never want to take off.

The DreamKnit™ collection includes a diverse range of performance wear—including sweatshirts, t-shirts, shorts, dresses and more—made with soft, stretchy materials and relaxed cuts. The DreamKnit™ line effortlessly blends casual with clean, making it ideal for a smooth transition from workouts to lounging.

When gearing up for a run, I reach for the Stride Leggings. Made with quick-drying, performance stretch nylon, these leggings minimize moisture, keeping my legs comfortable and dry from sweat, rain or a combination of both. Characteristic of great running pants, their side pockets are ideal for holding my phone and keys, providing secure storage and keeping my hands free.

For warmer days, I opt for the Studio Pocket Short. With its biker-short style, it provides a snug, legging-like fit that stays in place through any activity. The BreatheInterlock™ fabric ensures flexibility, allowing it to bend, twist, and stretch with every movement. Equipped with hidden interior stash pockets at the waist and convenient side pockets, these shorts tackle a common challenge—keeping my essentials secure while I’m on the move.

Vuori goes beyond just offering stylish activewear by prioritizing sustainability in both their production practices and the materials they use. As of 2022, approximately 55% of their total fabric spend is allocated to Impact Fibers, chosen for their environmentally friendly qualities such as biodegradability, recycled content, and a reduced carbon footprint.

The brand has taken strides to limit their water and chemical usage in their manufacturing process, all while offsetting 100% of their plastic footprint through collaboration with CleanHub, receiving recognition as a Climate Neutral certified brand.

Choosing Vuori extends beyond embracing style and functionality—it’s a conscious decision that allows me to feel good about my choices, both in fashion and environmental impact. Whether I’m on the go or taking a breather, Vuori is the brand I feel good in.
