“You refused to settle for plastic against your skin. We refused to accept it was the only option. Tripulse set out to create something they said couldn't be done – clean, high-performing natural activewear that doesn't need polyester, nylon, or spandex to perform. Here’s how we made the impossible possible.”

Notes from Lisa · 15.09.2026
A different approach to activewear.
Tripulse caught my attention as an alternative to polyester and nylon activewear many years ago. What I particularly like is how broadly they look at sustainability, considering the product’s whole lifecycle, their supply chain and how they run the business.
Their supply chain page is a good example. It lists where different materials and production stages come from, so you can follow more than just where the clothes are sewn. I also enjoyed reading founder Franziska’s story and her reasons for starting Tripulse.
I also like that they explain their material choices, including where they still need synthetic stretch. Their tops use 100% TENCEL™ Lyocell, while their leggings and sports bras combine it with ROICA™ stretch fibres. Depending on the product, they use V550, tested for biodegradation under controlled conditions, or EF, made with recycled content. The collection isn’t entirely plastic-free, but they explain the choices and limitations.
