BEECH WEAR
Eco hero meets fitness warrior with SueMe’s range of sports performance underwear, made in Portugal from 95 per cent beech tree pulp, known as modal. Dubbed Tree Trunks ( and Beech Shorties for women), the boxers are soft and comfortable while also being durable, with seams carefully placed to avoid increasing the risk of chafing. The team behind the designs worked on Ian Thorpe’s Olympic medal- winning swim suit, so they know a thing or two about catering to athletes’ needs. The blend of modal and lycra allows for superior stretch, while the natural fibres help to prevent a build- up of bacteria and odour while you work out. Price: £ 20 per pair or £ 46 for a pack of three.
