When it comes to activewear, comfort and function often come at a cost—to the environment, or your skin. At ZONE by Lydia, we believe you shouldn’t have to choose.
Our Hemp Bike Shorts with Pockets are made for women who move with purpose—and care about what touches their skin and impacts the planet. They’re crafted from a sustainable blend of 52% hemp, 43% organic cotton, and just 5% spandex—the minimum needed for movement, not excess.
Why Hemp and Organic Cotton?
Both hemp and organic cotton are biodegradable, renewable, and grown using far less water and no harmful pesticides.
Together, they create a fabric that’s:
-
Breathable and moisture-wicking
-
Naturally antibacterial and antimicrobial
-
Soft and durable, improving with every wear and wash
And with only 5% spandex, these bike shorts offer gentle stretch without clinging or trapping heat—ideal for sensitive skin or anyone living low-tox.
Stretching Toward a Future Without Synthetics
We’re not stopping at 5%. Our goal is to phase out petroleum-based synthetics entirely.
We’re actively researching plant-based stretch alternatives like:
-
ROICA™ V550: a partially bio-based, biodegradable elastane
-
Creora® bio-based spandex: made from renewable resources like corn
-
CIRCULOSE® and Naia™ Renew: circular, cellulosic fibres in testing for future blends
We’re committed to developing garments that stretch, breathe, and perform—without the plastic.
A Fit That Moves With You
These shorts are:
-
High-waisted, offering support without restriction
-
Mid-thigh length, balancing coverage and freedom
-
Snow-washed for a beautifully weathered, lived-in finish—no two pairs are the same
They’re made to move through yoga, Pilates, strength training, or everyday life—without losing shape or softness.

Why ZONE?
At ZONE, we don’t chase trends. We honour movement as a way of life. Rooted in yoga’s principle of ahimsa (non-harm), our clothing and gear is crafted with care—for your body, and the Earth.
We believe in slowing down. In reconnecting with breath, nature, and intention.
And we make products that support that journey—not distract from it.
