Hemp
is one of the softest, long-lasting materials on the planet. Unlike
cotton, hemp wears in with age and becomes stronger through repeated
use. The material has also become popular for yoga clothing because
it is grown without the aid of chemicals or pesticides, which coincides
with the holistic nature of the sport.

The idea of wearing hemp yoga clothing may make people uncomfortable
because of the connection with marijuana. It’s true that hemp
is derived from cannabis, but there aren’t any psychoactive
properties (THC) of hemp. The federal government has even recognized
the versatility of the fiber and has allowed farmers to grow it without
permission in some states.
