To all the 4-rth ladies out there, we have a new color exclusively just for you! We are so excited to introduce our newest color - Bamboo! This will be an addition to the women’s Fitted Slip-On Hoodie, currently offered in just the Sand colorway. Together, these two eco-friendly colors will make a great pair in 4-rth’s sustainable fashion line for women. Easy to slip-on during or after your yoga or pilates workout to run your errands or otherwise trot about town in sustainable style! In tandem with 4-rth’s sustainable practices, the Hoodie is made up of 100% Modal – an extremely eco-friendly fabric. Modal is a highly sustainable product made from Beech Wood chips derived from the Birch Tree. The cellulosic structure of Modal allows it to wick 50% more moisture than Cotton! This provides excellent moisture transportation, outstanding regulation of the body climate, and exceptional skin friendliness.

4-rth sustainable fashion & yoga apparel is proud to announce that we are now using custom-made fabrics in our NEW line from the use of Modal & ProModal. From Beech wood, textiles made from Modal are resistant to shrinkage and fading due to its strength & dimensional stability. They are particularly smooth and soft, more so than mercerized cotton, to the point where mineral deposits from hard water do not stick to the fabric surface.

8 MINUTES!! That is how long it takes for the SUN to provide the ENTIRE energy needs of the planet today. yet we still rely upon dirty fossil fuels for 99%. WHY….could it be the lockdown on politicians by the OIL, GAS, & COAL industries? duh! GW Bush’s energy bill of 2005 actually encouraged vastly MORE fossil fuel destruction of US soil - particularly thru-out the Rocky Mountain states. 4-rth sustainable fashion & yoga apparel is highly opposed to dirty energy & strongly encourage the USA to invest heavily in renewable, clean, green energy!

This was an awesome news find for me & 4-rth sustainable yoga fashion. I love to hear that SINCE the federal government is dragging its feet on CLEAN energy legislation and expanding the GREEN energy sector or providing MORE funding for it, that there are many individual states out there that are taking the bull by the horns!! 4-rth is attaching this link, again from one of our favorite sites for GREEN & sustainable reporting -- from YALE university. By the way, the FOUR states are: Iowa (20%). SD (13%). ND (12%). Minnesota (11%). Texas installed the most new capacity, while CHINA installed the most NEW wind energy capacity in 2009 with a 36% share of all new investment on the planet. http://e360.yale.edu/content/digest.msp?id=2537
