Quick Overview: My Top Brands
Here are six yoga brands I personally recommend in 2025:
Each brand has unique strengths. Below, I explain when to pick which.
What Makes a Yoga Brand Top
I rank brands based on five criteria:
- Fabric performance: softness, stretch, durability
- Fit and inclusivity: range of body types served
- Brand values: sustainability, transparency, ethics
- Design appeal: fashion vs performance balance
- Value for price: durability vs cost

- Trade-off: Expensive, some fabrics are delicate.

- Best for: Stylish sets that transition studio to street.
- Trade-off: Fit consistency can vary.

- Best for: Flow classes, recovery, or lounging.
- Trade-off: Less durable under heavy sweat sessions.
Beyond Yoga
- Strength: Softness plus coverage, woman-led brand.
