I am all about sustainable clothing these days, way more than ever before. Although my priority is to reuse and not buy if I am given the choice. However, I am a fitness fanatic and I have struggled to find sustainable sportswear that is practical, looks good and stands the test of time.
I recently reviewed Bamboo Clothing’s running leggings, running jacket, yoga pants and yoga top and I am pleased to say I have found my new, favourite sportswear brand.
Bamboo Clothing are a Sustainable Sports Wear Brand
Bamboo Clothing are a sustainable ethical brand and one we absolutely love working with at VoucherShares.

We are really lucky because we invested in a Peloton and all of the monthly classes before lockdown, so I have spin and yoga on tap (not to mention some amazing running routes on my doorstep).
The black yoga pants and top make yoga a breeze and are lightweight so if you break a sweat, they don’t feel hot. They are perfect for everything from downward dog to cat pose. I am not the most flexible (I blame all the running

International Women’s Day is annually recognised on the 8th March to quite rightly celebrate the achievements of women in ever sector, whether you are a business woman, a daughter, a mother, grandmother or if you don’t want to categorise yourself, either way being a woman opens you up to inevitable bias not seen or experienced by men.
I am proud of my recent interview with Women’s Running Magazine in which I talk about how I ran one of the UKs most brutal coastal marathons in aid of the WLT (who we have supported since we launched).
As Veganuary draws to a close I thought that instead of posting yet another vegan recipe out into the abys I would look at the best vegan clothes brands (as voted for by our voucher codes team) instead. Vegan clothes are almost unrecognisable to the ones of yesteryear ...
