"Responsible Collection" indicates that the brand is dedicated to sourcing materials in an environmentally friendly and ethical way. This often includes using recycled or repurposed materials, which helps reduce waste and lessen the environmental impact of production. By choosing products with this label, you’re supporting sustainable practices.

Recycled Polyester is made from plastic waste, such as used plastic bottles, which helps divert materials from landfills and oceans. By opting for clothing made from recycled polyester, you’re contributing to reducing plastic pollution and promoting a more sustainable fashion industry compared to traditional polyester made from new petroleum-based materials.

UPF, or Ultraviolet Protection Factor, measures how much UV radiation can penetrate the fabric. A higher UPF rating means better protection against harmful UV rays. For example, a UPF rating of 50 blocks 98% of UV radiation, making it essential for outdoor activities to help prevent sunburn and long-term skin damage.

Clothing with a Compressive Fit is designed to be snug against the body, providing support to your muscles during physical activities. This fit can enhance circulation, reduce muscle fatigue, and improve overall performance, making it ideal for sports, workouts, and outdoor adventures.

The Pass-Through Pocket in the Yuba Trail™ Short is designed for easy access to your belongings. Located on the back yolk, it allows you to quickly grab or store items like a towel or tank top while transitioning between activities, such as hiking and swimming, ensuring convenience and functionality during your adventures.
