New store in Ann Arbor that is a mashup of sustainable activewear, 3D digital galleries, coffee shop, and meeting place.

We went ahead and found 9 sustainable men’s chinos and trousers that will have you looking and feeling good, with every single one of them being sustainable and GOOD for the environment.

From jacket and mitts to pants and booties, this stuff has you covered. Just remember to bring the bike.

Let’s be honest, though our intentions may be good, trying to buy eco-friendly products that are sustainably made is a bit of a minefield. With so many factors to consider, from air miles and production processes to packaging and materials, it can be hard to know how ‘eco-friendly’ our choices actually are.

Camping mugs are such a seemly unimportant addition to your camping checklist. An extra that you can live without, right? Wrong! Though you’ll certainly survive without having a nice looking, insulating mug that feels great to hold and drink from, having one only makes the whole camping affair all the more enjoyable. At least I sure think so! It just doesn’t get much better than snuggling around a campfire with one of the best camping mugs you can get your mitted hands on, filled with your favourite drink.

Summer is right around the corner, and ready or not, here she comes! It’s time to pack up your coats, beanies, and scarves and bring out shorts, tees, swim trunks, and casual wear. A few new items never hurt, either. The best part? You guessed it! All sustainable and GOOD for the Earth. Sustainable summer clothes for men shouldn’t be hard to find. We did the dirty work, we rounded up 13 essentials you NEED this summer!

Joob Activewear launched its website on July 15 for customers to purchase gear. The company is renovating a 2,000-square-foot warehouse at 5007 Jackson Road to move into, owner John Ames, Jr. said. The brand aims to focus on using materials that can be recycled and offering a percentage of its profits to environmentally conscious organizations.

Pairing a vision of creating a triple-bottom-line business with a love for outdoor activity, Ann Arbor couple John Ames Jr. and Nicha Sangiampornpanit have launched a climate-neutral clothing company, JOOB Activewear.

Joob Activewear is a very young brand, launched only in mid-July this year, but it’s already very serious about its sustainability-related partnerships and initiatives. Joob’s headquarters is solar powered, and many of the company’s products are made from sustainable fabrics such as merino, umorfil, lyocell, and recycled polyester, and they promise to look for better alternatives for those products that aren’t yet made with more environmentally friendly fabric.
