The prices are actually really good, especially for made-in-Vancouver clothing!

This Manitoba-based clothing and activewear brand ethically manufactures their garments in Winnipeg.

Their exclusive and eco-friendly fabrics are milled and knitted in Ontario, and their one-of-a-kind prints are handcrafted by an Indigenous Métis Elder.

All of their pieces are made-to-order in small batches, so they don’t have excess pieces that end up in landfills!

This Comforta Bamboo Bra is super cute, and I also love these Comforta Tencel Pocket Bike Shorts.

Anne Mulaire is also a B Corp, which means that they do great for their employees and for the environment!

This BC-based activewear brand does a lot of collaborative designs with Indigenous artists, which is really cool!

A lot of their pieces are made using post-consumer recycled water bottles, as well as other sustainable fabrics like bamboo and Tencel.

Knix is most well-known for their period underwear, but they’ve also got super cute and well-made activewear!

I adore this pretty Momenta Sports Bra with a modest mesh cutout and this chic sport skort.

They also support a lot of local Canadian charities, which I think is incredible!


Lululemon

You may or may have known that Lululemon is actually a Canadian brand, and they’re actually based out of Vancouver!

Their pieces are well-made and fantastic quality, which is why they continue to be one of the best activewear brands out there.

Their Align line is amaze, and the high-neck tank is one of my most-worn items.

I wear my classic fit cotton-blend t-shirt all the time for both exercise and hanging out – it’s moisture-wicking and great for my fellow sweaty gals.

The Wunder Train high-rise crop leggings is a great compression legging for workouts – definitely size up for them!
