EDN is a premium performance wear company dedicated to creating plastic-free and toxin-free apparel that enables human health. Our name evokes Eden—a natural paradise of purity and harmony—reflecting our commitment to clothing that honors both your body and the natural world.

Our philosophy centers on optimizing human health by eliminating harmful materials from clothing. We believe that as evidence around the harmful nature of microplastics becomes increasingly pervasive, what goes on your body is as important as what goes in it. "Anti-Plastic, Pro Human" means we create garments that support your wellbeing by eliminating plastic exposure throughout our supply chain and final products.

Unlike most sustainable brands that focus primarily on environmental impact, EDN approaches apparel through the lens of human wellness. Our products aim to enhance your health by minimizing exposure to plastic microfibers and toxic chemicals that can disrupt hormonal balance and accumulate in your body. Our constantly evolving and rigorous standards for material purity, transparent sourcing, and performance set a new benchmark in the industry.

We use primarily natural and regenerated fibers that minimize plastic content, including premium organic cotton, lyocell, hemp, and wool. Our fabrics are carefully sourced and tested to ensure exceptional purity while delivering outstanding performance, comfort, and durability.

Our natural materials offer comparable or superior performance in breathability, moisture management, and comfort. While synthetics traditionally excel in stretch and quick-drying properties, we've engineered our natural fiber blends and construction techniques to close this gap. For example, our performance cotton absorbs 50% more moisture than polyester, making it more breathable, while our precision construction techniques enhance durability and movement.

We're committed to radically reducing plastic materials throughout our production process and end products. This commitment spans from primary fabrics to threads, labels, and packaging. We're constantly innovating to find solutions that maintain performance while eliminating plastic components, and we transparently communicate the composition of every garment we create.

We conduct rigorous testing for chemical compounds that could disrupt health. Our fabrics and finished products undergo comprehensive third-party testing to verify they're free from BPA, phthalates, PFAS, and other endocrine-disrupting chemicals commonly found in conventional apparel. We've developed relationships with meticulous producers who share our values, and we maintain strict quality control throughout our supply chain.

Conventional synthetic clothing sheds microplastics during wear and washing that can enter your body through skin absorption, inhalation, and ingestion. These microplastics may carry endocrine-disrupting chemicals that can affect hormonal balance, fertility, and overall health. By wearing EDN's plastic-minimized apparel, you significantly reduce this exposure source, potentially supporting reproductive health, hormone function, and long-term wellbeing.

Research suggests synthetic fibers and their chemical treatments may impact reproductive health. By minimizing potential endocrine disruptors found in conventional clothing and creating breathable, natural garments that don't trap heat or generate static electricity, EDN clothing supports optimal conditions for reproductive wellness. While we make no medical claims, our approach aligns with scientific understanding of how clothing materials can influence physiological function.

Microplastics shed from synthetic clothing are now ubiquitous in our environment and bodies—they've been found in the human brain, lungs, placentas, and breast milk. These particles can carry and leach harmful chemicals like BPA, phthalates, and flame retardants, which may disrupt hormones and cellular function. By wearing plastic-minimized clothing, you reduce your personal exposure and contribution to this growing health concern.

We currently offer premium performance underwear for men and soon for women, with plans to expand into athletic base layers and direct skin contact essentials. Our long-term vision includes a complete ecosystem of health-enabling products across multiple categories for the entire family. Join our newsletter for exclusive access to future product launches.

We recommend washing in cold water with mild, natural detergent and air drying when possible. This preserves the integrity of the fibers and extends garment life. Unlike predominantly synthetic clothing that shed non-biodegradable microfibers, EDN garments primarily release natural fibers that biodegrade naturally—so you can care for them with minimal environmental concern.

EDN garments are designed for performance with a focus on comfort and movement. We offer inclusive sizing that accommodates diverse body types while ensuring optimal fit and function. Each product page includes detailed sizing information to help you find your perfect fit.

"Farm to Closet" represents our commitment to transparency throughout our supply chain. We trace and verify every step of our materials' journey—from the soil where fibers are grown to the finished garment in your closet. This ensures integrity, minimizes material fraud, and allows us to guarantee the quality of everything we make.

We develop direct relationships with our material suppliers and manufacturing partners, conducting regular site visits and third-party audits. We track each component of our products from origin to finished garment, documenting compliance with our strict standards for material quality and ethical production. This meticulous oversight allows us to provide exceptional transparency to our customers.

While environmental sustainability is important to us, human health is our primary focus. Fortunately, what's good for your body is typically good for the planet too. Our natural materials are predominantly biodegradable, our production processes minimize waste and water use, and our durable products are designed to last longer, reducing consumption. By creating long-lasting alternatives to conventional synthetics, we're helping reduce the estimated 35% of ocean microplastics that come from textile fibers.

We employ construction techniques at the highest levels possible—creating products with precision and quality. Each garment represents the culmination of expert pattern-making, rigorous fabric development, and meticulous attention to detail. Alongside our manufacturing partners, we believe craftsmanship at the highest level attains exceptional performance without the shortcuts of harmful materials.

Because this product is intimate in nature, we cannot accept physical returns once shipped. However, your comfort and confidence matter to us.
