Stop Wearing Plastic to the Gym.

You spend thousands on supplements, track your WHOOP data, and optimize your sleep - but every workout, you're training in plastic.


Your clothing is the health protocol you're missing.

The Problem With Traditional Activewear

99% of activewear is made with cheap, plastic-based fabrics like polyester, nylon & spandex.

Here’s why that’s a problem:

Polyester is plastic. Which means...

  • It sheds microplastics onto your skin

  • It often contains toxic plastic chemicals

  • It traps heat, sweat & bacteria against your skin

Shop Natural Activewear

Collage of news headlines discussing BPA in athletic clothing.

Plastic based fabrics have been shown to contain:

  • Microplastics

  • BPA and Phthalates

  • PFAS ("Forever Chemicals")

  • Formaldehyde

And these chemicals in polyester have been linked to issues like...

  • Fertility impacts

  • Hormonal disruption

  • Decreased sex drive

Shop Natural Activewear

Your body can absorb these chemicals through your skin - especially when sweating.

Hot & sweaty while exercising. Pores open. Research shows these chemicals absorb right in. And it's even worse if you sauna...

You optimize everything. Except what's against your skin.

You spend hundreds a month on supplements. Track you WHOOP data. Eat clean & avoid processed foods.


Then you put on shorts made from the same material as a plastic water bottle. It doesn't make sense.

$99.00 for a pair of shorts.

$99 for a pair of shorts?! I went back and forth on these for about a week because, damn, that’s a lot for shorts.

Then they arrived.

As soon as I felt them, I got it. Man, these things are soft and comfortable. Now when I put on my old shorts from the big-name company, they feel like I’m wearing a plastic bottle.

Ryker’s are officially my new favorite shorts. I like them so much, I’m getting a pair for my nephew now too.

Yeah, they’re expensive—but I’d buy them again.

Worth every penny

I’ll be honest, I hesitated before pulling the trigger on these because of the price — Ryker shorts aren’t cheap, and I’ve been burned before by “premium” athletic wear that doesn’t actually perform any better than the $25 stuff. These are different.
I wear them for lifting (3-on-2-off split), longer bike rides, and just knocking around the house, and the difference in comfort is immediately noticeable — no chafing, no weird bunching, and the fabric breathes way better than I expected for something this substantial. The fit holds up whether I’m under a bar or on the bike for 15+ miles, which is more than I can say for other brands I’ve tried.
Are they expensive? Yes. Do I regret buying them? Not even a little. This is one of those cases where you actually get what you pay for — the quality is obvious the second you put them on, and they’ve held their shape wash after wash so far.
I’m planning to put these through real long-term use — daily training, higher mileage rides, the works — so I’ll come back and update this review after 3 months of consistent wear to report on durability. So far, though, I’m sold. Ryker please contact me when able.

Awesome, but sized down

Great shorts that hold up even after many washes! I would suggest getting the smaller size if you're between sizes like I am. I'm 6 foot 2, 200 lbs and the medium is much better than the large.

Worth it

I had been looking for something like these shorts for awhile. I held out for some time but finally decided to invest the $$ into a better/safer option. Very soft and comfortable. Hopefully they come out with shirts
