Two villages in Portugal makes your clothes

Near Porto, in Portugal, two small family businesses work side by side for us. The first, in one village, knits our organic cotton from scratch and dyes it to our specifications. The second, in the next village, cuts and sews. We have been visiting both every year since 2009. We know the people by name. We share meals when we visit. They have watched our collections grow alongside their own children.During the Covid years, when organic cotton and bamboo became briefly impossible to source in Portugal, we found a second family workshop in Turkey — also ethical, also certified, also personal. About 5% of what we make passes through their hands today. The Mizar Kimono and a few Lilac pieces from past collections come from there.Most yoga brands buy fabric from a market — pre-made rolls, ready to cut. We don't. Every meter of jersey we use is knitted from scratch to our specifications. That is why the Sohang feels the way it does. That is why a five-year-old pair softens instead of wearing thin.A slower way of making clothes. Sometimes inconvenient. Always worth it.

The slow choices we keep making for sustainability

Sustainability for us is not a marketing department. It is a series of small, sometimes annoying choices we have made since 2009.We chose certified organic cotton when it was 40% more expensive than conventional or plastic fabrics. We still pay that premium today. We grow without external capital which means we cannot afford to overstock, so we don't. We use every meter of yarn we order, even when it means smaller runs and longer waits. We are 100% self funded and all the money is placed in ethical funds in a local bank.We focus on evergreen pieces, the Sohang, the Amrit, the Amba instead of seasonal collections. Some of these designs are over a decade old and still our bestsellers. A garment worn for ten years on a body is the most sustainable thing a fashion brand can make.Our fabrics are dyed with processes gentle enough for a baby's skin. We package in either recycled or biodegradable bags. We ship from our small warehouse in Cully (Switzerland) or our partner in Germany, never overseas.We don't tick every box. We are not perfect. But these are the choices we make, and we make them visible.

What materials we use?

We work with three fabrics. Three. Not thirty.Brushed Organic Cotton Jersey (220g, made in Portugal) soft, slightly thick, with a peach-skin touch. Our flagship. The Sohang, Yamala and Mahan are knitted from this.Mercerized Organic Cotton Jersey (180g, made in Portugal) lighter, smoother, with a subtle natural sheen. Our new Essence Collection uses this for models like Ankaa, Nashira, Maia.Bamboo Viscose blended with Organic Cotton (made in Turkey) cool, breathable, fluid. Used for the Lilii pants and the Mizar Kimono. Bamboo regrows in three to five years, without replanting and without irrigation.Most pieces include around 8% certified elastane, enough to hold shape over years of wear, without losing breath.We use every meter of yarn we knit. What we don't sew, we save for repairs and samples. Nothing goes to waste.

Three generations of women to design

Three generations of women.My grandmother Johanna sewed evening dresses by hand. Long, careful, beautiful work, a kind of patience that has all but disappeared.My mother, Cornelia, learned from her. In 2009, she founded Breath of Fire. The very first piece she designed, the Sohang, was created on the floor of her living room in Switzerland, with a yoga teacher friend named Christina. It is still our flagship today, seventeen years later.Today, I ( Pernelle) run the brand. I do not redesign what works. I extend it. The Essence Collection, launched in 2025, sits beside the Evergreen line. New silhouettes, same intention.We do not design for trends. We design for the body in practice, for the moment when the breath deepens, when the posture lengthens, when you forget what you are wearing.That is the test of a piece. Forgetting it on. Returning to it.

Everyday comfort, shaped by movement — yoga pants designed to feel reliable from morning practice to the end of the day.

The Mahan Pants were created by Cornelia Kauhs, founder of Breath of Fire, as the men's everyday foundation of our collection. Designed to combine ease, structure, and intelligent functionality — a piece born from practice and long wear.

Their thoughtful cut follows the body naturally, providing stability and freedom while subtly shaping the silhouette — including a clean, flattering line at the back. Comfortable in movement, in stillness, and through daily life.

What makes it unique

Thoughtful men's cut — follows the body naturally without restriction, with a clean, flattering line at the back.
Built for movement and stillness — comfort that lasts from yoga to walks, meditation to everyday wear.
Versatile silhouette — refined enough for everyday styling, relaxed enough for a full yoga practice.
220g brushed jersey — the same soft organic cotton as our Sohang Pants. Holds its shape wash after wash, feels like a second skin.

Best for

All yoga styles — Hatha, Yin, Vinyasa, Ashtanga
Meditation and pranayama — comfortable in long-held postures
Everyday wear — at home, on walks, or travelling
A complete tonal look paired with the Sadhak Men's Yoga T-shirt or the Bencha long-sleeve

Honest note on fit

The Mahan Pants are designed as a year-round men's essential. For warm days or shorter practices, we recommend the Mahan Shorts — same line, same fabric, simply in a shorter length.

Ethically made in Europe

Every Mahan Pant is knitted, dyed and sewn in Portugal, in the same small family workshop as our Sohang Pants — a place we visit personally. All fabrics are certified organic and dyed with processes gentle enough for a baby's skin. 92% certified organic cotton · 8% elastane for lasting shape and comfort.

Styling tip

For a clean, refined look, pair the Mahan Pants with the Sadhak Men's Yoga T-shirt or the Bencha long-sleeve T-shirt in a tonal palette — same shade top and bottom. The continuous line visually elongates the silhouette, effortless and timeless.

The Mahan Pants — a foundation for men

The Mahan Pants were designed as a deeply thoughtful piece for men — shaped by practice, long wear, and a precise understanding of the male body. From the beginning, they were created to offer comfort, structure, and freedom of movement in equal measure.

Over time, they became our bestseller for men and the second best-selling piece of the brand — not by design, but through use. Worn for yoga, meditation, travel, and everyday life, the Mahan Pants have proven themselves as a reliable, versatile essential.

Their intelligent cut follows the body naturally, offering ease without looseness and structure without constraint. Integrated gaiters, an adjustable waist, and a balanced silhouette make them a piece men return to again and again.
