Yes women of the world, there is someone who wants your old undies. Why? Because they want you to join a new-wave of eco-friendly women—those who hold the future of our planet as a priority in their life. That company, is Knickey.
Knickey is the vision of Cayla O’Connell Davis, a veteran of the fashion industry and her company is founded on sustainability principles: from the organic materials used to make her line of undergarments to the recycling of used ones collected from customers.
With regard to materials used in her Knickey line, Cayla touts that her products are only made with organic cotton which she sources from India, a huge center for organic cotton in the textile industry. According to Cayla, most all underwear is made of synthetic fibers which are not healthy for women or the environment. Cayla claims her garments breath better in the important vaginal area, are more comfortable to wear, and are free of toxins, carcinogens and other harmful chemicals found in her competitors’ products.
Priced at $13 each, (bundling options can get the price down), Cayla knows the clothing industry is very competitive. However, she sees few competitors who have similar quality organic products and which also offer the clear hygenic and environmental benefits.
For example, Davis’ commitment to sustainability goes one step further. Knickey encourages women to clean out their underwear drawer and send them the old which can then be repurposed for products like insulation, mattress filling, rug pads, or some other industrial use. The mission: keep the old synthetic fiber undergarments and associated toxins out of landfills where they can find their way into local drinking water or require environment clean up down the road.
So if you’re ready to make a commitment to become an eco-friendly woman, why not start where it counts the most…..i.e. underneath it all.
