High Waisted Shorts - UltimComfort 7
The UltimComfort seamless yoga shorts are made for those who no longer want to choose between performance and body respect. Made from Tencel™, a natural wood-based fiber, not synthetic, it offers softness, breathability, and thermal regulation that no polyester or nylon can match. A natural alternative to conventional yoga and Pilates clothing, for a more conscious practice.
Natural Material · European Manufacturing
The majority of yoga clothing on the market is made from polyester or nylon, petroleum-derived plastics that release microplastics with every wash. At Elindra, we made the opposite choice: Tencel™ (Lyocell) is a natural and biodegradable fiber, sourced from certified forests, produced in a closed loop with 99% of solvents recycled. Seamlessly knitted in Portugal, these terracotta yoga shorts are a practice outfit you can wear with conviction.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose yoga shorts made from natural material rather than synthetic?
Polyester or nylon yoga clothing retains odors, gets hot during exercise, and releases microplastics with every wash. Tencel™, a natural plant-based fiber, breathes differently: it regulates temperature, stays cool against the skin, and does not generate plastic fibers. For daily practice in the studio or at home, you'll feel the difference from the very first session.
Are these yoga shorts also suitable for Pilates or dance?
Yes. The mid-thigh cut and 4-way stretch make them perfectly suitable for Pilates, barre, contemporary dance, or any practice requiring great leg freedom. They have been tested in real conditions during vinyasa flow sequences, Pilates mat, and active stretching.
Are the shorts opaque enough for inversions?
The mid-thigh length has been calibrated to provide comfortable coverage even in downward dog, legs up, or shoulder stand.
Does the color hold up after washing?
The color, while maintaining its warm radiance, is likely to develop a slight patina over washes due to the strict requirements of the GOTS label. Indeed, this certification guarantees the absence of heavy chemical fixatives and toxic metals, favoring dyes that are healthier for the environment but naturally more sensitive. To preserve this earthy hue and the silky fluidity of Tencel™, it is essential to wash your garment at a maximum of 30°C, always inside out, and to avoid fabric softener, which could suffocate the fiber. Air drying will further protect the pigments, thus avoiding the thermal aggression of a tumble dryer, which could dull the depth of the color.
