Why PACT is the Sustainable Brand You Need in Your Closet
Why PACT is the Sustainable Brand You Need in Your Closet
Ever feel like finding sustainable, comfy clothes that don’t cost a fortune is like hunting for a unicorn? I’m so excited to share the brand PACT, the game-changing company that’s making it easier (and softer) to shop your values. If you’re not already obsessed, you’re about to be. I had some friends start wearing it, and then was (gratefully) pushed some ads on Instagram and leaned in and fell in love. After I found out all the sh*t about Lululemon and some other brands we have all been wearing all the time and the serious health issues they are bringing about…I decided (and am still working on) swapping out clothes for non-toxic dupes and options. It’s not easy, and have found swapping home products and makeup and skincare products SO MUCH EASIER than swapping clothes, but here we are I’m learning and we’re learning and I want to share this brand with you bc they really are really really great lol.
So, What’s the Deal with PACT?
PACT isn’t just about selling clothes—it’s about creating a movement. They’re proof that you can look good, feel good, and do good without sacrificing comfort or style.
Here’s what makes them so special:
100% Organic Cotton
Think butter-soft fabric made without all the nasty stuff. PACT uses GOTS-certified organic cotton, which means no harmful chemicals, pesticides, or dyes. Plus, it uses way less water than traditional cotton—like 91% less. That’s a lot of saved H2O.Fair Trade Everything
PACT works with Fair Trade Certified™ factories to make sure their workers get fair pay, safe conditions, and, you know, basic dignity (which shouldn’t be revolutionary, but here we are).Carbon-Conscious Shipping
PACT offsets the carbon emissions from shipping your clothes, so your order arrives at your doorstep with a lighter eco-footprint.
Basically, you can wear your PJs guilt-free—and still feel like a superhero.
Why You’ll Want to Live in Their Clothes
PACT’s clothes are like that best friend who’s effortlessly cool but also incredibly down-to-earth. They’re soft, versatile, and built for real life—whether you’re working, running errands, or chasing toddlers around.
Fan Favorites You’ll Love:
Comfy Tees & Tanks: Perfect for layering, lounging, or looking casually fabulous.
The Softest Undies: Seriously. Once you try their organic cotton underwear, you’ll never want to go back.
Loungewear Goals: Dresses, hoodies, and joggers so cozy, you’ll be planning “staycations” just to live in them.
Baby & Kids’ Collection: Adorable, organic, and safe for your little ones' sensitive skin.
PACT’s pieces are the kind you reach for again and again—and they actually hold up wash after wash (no sad, stretched-out T-shirts here).
Why This Matters More Than Ever
Let’s get real: the fashion industry is messy. It’s responsible for 10% of global carbon emissions, and most fast fashion relies on unsustainable materials and exploitative labor practices.
PACT flips that script. Their organic cotton saves water, their Fair Trade factories treat workers ethically, and their transparency lets you know exactly where your clothes are coming from.
And the impact isn’t small:
Organic cotton farming uses 62% less energy than conventional methods.
Fair Trade practices ensure safe, equitable conditions for thousands of workers.
It’s feel-good fashion in every sense.
SORRY LULULEMON BUT I AM GOING TO SHIT ON YOU FOR A MINUTE.
Recent investigations have raised concerns about potential health risks associated with Lululemon products, particularly in relation to harmful chemicals like PFAS and nitrosamines.
Presence of PFAS ("Forever Chemicals"): PFAS, commonly used for water and stain resistance, have been found in various textiles, including athletic wear (Lululemon, among others). These chemicals are linked to serious health issues such as cancer, reproductive harm, immune system damage, and more. While it's unclear how much exposure occurs through clothing, their accumulation in the body over time poses significant risks
Nitrosamines in Yoga Mats: Independent testing revealed that some Lululemon yoga mats contained N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) at levels 1,600 times higher than California's safety limits. NDMA is a known carcinogen linked to cancers in organs such as the liver, stomach, and blood. Legal actions under Proposition 65 have pushed Lululemon to reformulate these mats to remove harmful chemicals
These findings underscore the need for increased transparency and reformulation in athletic and wellness products. Consumers are encouraged to research brands committed to chemical-free production and look for certifications that ensure safer materials. For more details on these investigations, you can refer to resources from environmental advocacy organizations like the Environmental Working Group and the Center for Environmental Health.
