ABOUT BRANWYN

Based in Bend, Oregon, BRANWYN produces the world’s first and only ethically-sourced, naturally sustainable Performance Innerwear made by and for active women. Bringing together ZQ Merino wool and seamless knitting technology, BRANWYN is revolutionizing women’s next-to-skin apparel that supports all women, in all ways, always.  

BRANWYN’s underlying ethos of “Find A Way” through breaking limiting beliefs was inspired by the radical idea that women could create better underwear for themselves that meets our unique needs: comfort, temperature regulating, anti-microbial, breathable, and healthy. We also partner with organizations that provide space and support for women to experience joy and full self-expression through the outdoors, sweat, community, and movement. 

Finally, our commitment to personal and global health and regeneration ensures we will always use natural, non-toxic fibers and sustainable materials, and prioritize ethical farming and work practices.
