Nanue

Nanue gar­ments are desig­ned by Vero­ni­ca, fashi­on desig­ner and foun­der of Nanue, and ethi­cal­ly han­d­ma­de in a small wor­k­shop in the Canary Islan­ds by women for women. 

The­ir desig­ns have the per­fect fit and offer maxi­mum sup­port wit­ho­ut res­tric­ting fre­edom of move­ment, as the fabric they are made from is ultra-lig­h­twe­ig­ht and high-per­for­man­ce. It has been manu­fac­tu­red with an inno­va­ti­ve tec­h­no­logy that offers the hig­hest per­for­man­ce and com­fort. Hyper-resis­tant, thin, elas­tic, soft and bre­at­ha­ble. Fun­c­ti­onal clot­hing wit­ho­ut com­pro­mi­sing on design. 

In addi­ti­on, the yoga clot­hing has been tes­ted and desig­ned in col­la­bo­ra­ti­on with yoga teac­hers, and some of its gar­ments featu­re desig­ns by local illustrators.

The­ir yoga and surf sets are made from recy­cled polyes­ter (SEAL Recy­cled Polyes­ter Lycra) and with the mini­mum amo­unt of mate­ri­al possi­ble. They also have the Oeko Tex Stan­dard 100 cer­ti­fi­ca­ti­on, which guaran­te­es that no har­m­ful sub­s­tan­ces or che­mi­cals have been used in the­ir manu­fac­tu­re, eit­her for people or for the envi­ron­ment. So you can be sure that your gar­ments are com­ple­tely safe to wear during your yoga or sur­fing practice. 

The­ir new col­lec­ti­on, on the other hand, is made with Econyl rege­ne­ra­ted nylon. A yarn com­po­sed of rege­ne­ra­ted nylon and elas­ta­ne, which has been manu­fac­tu­red using pre-con­su­mer and post-con­su­mer was­te, such as fishing nets, fabric scraps and indus­tri­al plastics.

For sport­swe­ar, it is often nece­ssary to use a stret­ch fabric. This elas­tic is cre­ated by incor­po­ra­ting elas­ta­ne into the fabric. Unfor­tu­na­tely, elas­ta­ne is a syn­t­he­tic and unsus­ta­ina­ble fabric. But Nanue uses only a small per­cen­ta­ge of elas­ta­ne in the­ir garments. 

They also use a small per­cen­ta­ge of 100% GOTS cer­ti­fi­ed orga­nic cot­ton for the­ir T‑shirt collection.

Nanue uses recy­cled fabrics, the­reby redu­cing the use of vir­gin mate­ri­als, and giving a second life to some mate­ri­als, such as recy­cled polyes­ter or Econyl rege­ne­ra­ted nylon, which is made using pre- and post-con­su­mer was­te, such as fishing nets, fabric scraps and indus­tri­al plastics.

Nanue makes its gar­ments local­ly and ethi­cal­ly in the Canary Islan­ds, whe­re Sara and Vero­ni­ca, the foun­ders of Nanue, live. In addi­ti­on, almost all the­ir texti­le sup­pli­ers are from the mainland, the­ir fabric Econyl, which comes from a sup­pli­er in Italy.

Nanue is a com­ple­tely vegan brand! Good news for ani­mal lovers.

Nanu­e’s con­cept is slow fashi­on. They pro­du­ce on demand, in this way, they avo­id over­pro­duc­ti­on and enco­ura­ge a pre-order pro­duc­ti­on sys­tem (wit­ho­ut stock).

In addi­ti­on, the­ir desig­ns are rever­si­ble and all the pieces com­bi­ne with each other, so you can com­bi­ne them in dif­fe­rent ways with your favo­uri­te sport­swe­ar or inte­gra­te them into your everyday life. You can use them for both sur­fing and yoga. They will give you the fre­edom of move­ment you need.

COSH! spo­ke to the foun­ders and assu­res that Nanue is a tran­s­pa­rent brand in ter­ms of mate­ri­als and pro­duc­ti­on sites, which is why we at COSH! can be sure that this brand is acting wit­hin its eco­lo­gi­cal valu­es and is cer­ta­inly con­tri­bu­ting to a more sus­ta­ina­ble fashi­on industry!
