Patagonia Women's Maipo 7/8 Sports Leggings Tights - Black

Patagonia Women's Formfitting: This is a tight-fitting technical garment. We recommend sizing up for a looser, more relaxed fit.

The Patagonia Women's Maipo 7/8 Tights are lightweight, form fitting leggings inspired by the multi-sport activities in the Mail Valley in Chile. These tights are a solid black colour.

Made with a blend of recycled NetPlus® nylon and elastane knit, these women's tights feature miDori® bioSoft and HeiQ® technology which helps wick away sweat and controls odours while you exercise.

With a folded-over high-rise waistband, these tights offer premium comfort with low profile seams that prevent chafing and allow you to focus on your activities. A centre back pocket is ideal for storing little essentials like keys or your phone, making these a brilliant option for some functional comfort when you're on the go.

These tights even help to reduce ocean pollution as the recycled nylon is manufactured using old fishing nets.

We're proud to be stocking Patagonia at Babipur, the pioneers of responsible business practices! Patagonia were one of the earliest adopters of organic cotton recognising the damage that pesticides had on the earth and making the switch back in 1994. A core value is to make the very best quality product because better products last longer and the longer products last the less that have to be made. Materials and manufacturing are carefully considered to ensure minimal impact from creation through to disposal.

Patagonia's continued efforts to reduce and even reverse the impacts of commercial activities is awe-inspiring. Investment in environmental causes and activism, sourcing of reused, recycled and low impact materials, fair trade certifications and initiatives to help other companies achieve higher sustainability levels, Patagonia lead the way. Not satisfied with pushing for change within their own industry Patagonia have begun a food division looking to change farming practices for the better too. Now a global brand using their increased influence for the greater good and still independently owned.
