Mate's high-rise Organic Stretch Biker Short is designed for low to medium impact exercise, but it's so comfy you'll want to wear it everywhere. Good thing it looks just as cute at yoga class as it does paired with an oversized sweater at brunch. Most activewear is notoriously bad for the environment because it's made from synthetic materials that shed microplastics when washed. Our Organic Stretch is an entirely different story. While it's impossible to get the necessary stretch for activewear from pure cotton, we got pretty damn close with a blend of 92% Organic Cotton and only 8% Spandex.  - 92% Organic Cotton 8% Spandex - Machine wash cold with like colors - Tumble dry low - Do not bleach Please note that there can be slight differences in the coloration of our products across different fabrications.
