Where Is Vuori Made?

Vuori has become one of the most talked-about performance lifestyle brands — blending California cool with technical activewear comfort.
But many people wonder: where is Vuori actually made?
If you’ve noticed “Made in Vietnam” or “Made in the Philippines” tags, you’re not alone — and there’s a good reason behind it.

As someone who’s worked with OEM/ODM activewear factories, I’ll explain exactly where Vuori produces its apparel, why it chose those regions, and what it says about the brand’s values.

Quick Answer

Vuori makes most of its products in Vietnam, China, and the Philippines — through certified manufacturing partners that meet strict ethical, quality, and environmental standards.
While its design team operates in Encinitas, California, production happens overseas to balance craftsmanship and sustainability.


1. Vuori’s Manufacturing Countries

Vuori relies on a network of trusted production partners in Asia, each chosen for their technical expertise and compliance with global labor standards.

Vuori doesn’t own these factories — instead, it partners with suppliers that share its social and environmental values, ensuring transparency from design to delivery.


2. Why Vuori Produces in Asia

Many people assume “Made in Asia” means mass production, but that’s outdated.
Vuori produces in Asia because the region offers the best blend of technology, sustainability, and craftsmanship in activewear manufacturing.

Key reasons Vuori chose Asia:

  • 🌏 Access to advanced mills that produce eco-certified fabrics
  • 🧵 Skilled technicians specializing in flatlock seams and four-way stretch
  • 🔍 Efficient QC systems that maintain luxury-level standards
  • ♻️ Eco-friendly processes including recycled polyester and low-impact dyeing

💡 OEM insight: At FuKi Yoga, we follow similar sourcing strategies — using eco-certified mills in Asia to maintain high quality with sustainability.


3. Vuori’s Focus on Ethical & Sustainable Production

Vuori emphasizes responsibility and transparency over low cost.
It ensures all partner factories comply with the Fair Labor Association (FLA) and WRAP certification guidelines.

Vuori’s sustainability highlights:

  • Uses Recycled Polyester and Organic Cotton
  • Partners with Climate Neutral Certified facilities
  • Promotes low-waste packaging and reduced water dyeing
  • Offsets carbon emissions for logistics and packaging
