The Next Chapter of Eco-Conscious Performance
By Evan J. Cholfin
What if your favorite workout gear looked great, performed at the highest level, and actually made the planet better?
On this episode of A Healthier, Happier You, I chat with Paula and Philip Pavkov, the founders of ALWRLD, to explore their journey as a husband-and-wife team shaping the future of sustainable activewear—fusing design, textile science, and a commitment to transparency.
We dive into:
🌍 The ALWRLD origin story—combining international experience, science, and an inside look at the real impact of clothing production
♻️ Why their Clean Score system brings clarity to what “sustainable” really means—and how B Corp certification and third-party rankings make claims real
🇮🇹 How Spring ’25’s Italian performance fabrics strike the balance: sustainability, high performance, and standout style
✨ The evolving consumer mindset—proving eco-friendly can be beautiful, lasting, and desirable for every generation
🤝 The challenge of authenticity—fostering genuine community through run clubs, personal connections with stores, and visiting every shop that carries their line
🎾 Why racket sports and golf are driving their next growth—meeting real needs with thoughtful, functional design
🦠 Innovations to watch: biodegradable vests, seaweed fabrics, recycled materials from water bottles and fishing nets—built into every piece, not as a marketing gimmick
📦 Navigating tariffs, margins, and international expansion—growing steadily and sustainably, with a constant focus on quality, access, and follow-through
If you care about the intersection of fashion, wellness, and the planet, this conversation is for you.
Style that moves you. Sustainably made for every adventure.
