Iron Roots

We make natural athletic apparel

Pitch

At Iron Roots we have always wondered why almost all athletic brands use plastics in their clothing. Shouldn’t the demonstration of what nature’s possible of; sports, be accompanied by natural materials itself?

This question led us down the road of a black boxed, polluting world of clothing. Where there’s a lack of sustainability and transparency. We believe that this can change! By combining sustainable fabrics like industrial hemp and lyocell, with a transparent supply chain, we create natural athletic apparel.
