................ ethical clothing for balanced livingChoclo Project is an ethical brand from Australia providing versatile clothing designed to take you from your chosen playground, to grabbing a coffee, checking the waves or even heading into town. Our team of ambassadors is made up of surfers, dancers, skiers and snowboarders, all connected through yoga and an infatuation with movement and leading a balanced life. Choclo has created a line of active and leisure clothing that makes you feel good inside and out, adding balance to everyday life. The range is more than functional; it has personality.

Choclo products are manufactured in Portugal. We are very happy with the partnership we have built with our manufacturer and are proud to be one of the few companies to produce a full range of products in Europe. This guarantees exceptional working conditions, outstanding quality and minimal shipping. We have a close relationship with our manufacturing partner, working closely with the team to make sure the conditions and quality is up to our high standards.

................ our team is our futureInstead of offering sponsorship to professional athletes, this inspired brand works with orphaned and abandoned children in Peru. Choclo believes that there is nothing more important for a child than being creative. The major goal is to provide these children with the opportunity and an environment in which to express themselves. Each garment in the range has a personal touch, from the creative hand of one of the children in the program. Choclo works in partnership with a nominated orphanage Nuevo Futuro (New Future) in Lima, Peru. The purchase of any Choclo product results in 5% of sales going directly to the children at Nuevo Futuro.

We are blessed to have a team of ambassadors that share this philosophy and represent the Choclo Project purely because they too have been touched by children in need on their travels around the globe.

MY STORY: I am a cosy top with a funky slub fabric. I am great for warm-ups and cool downs but still stylish enough to take you into town. Integrated thumbholes make me ideal for winter practice. The artwork by Nico Odo makes me a real show stopper. His artwork was inspired by Gina’s drawing (seen below).

MY STORY: I am a timelesss product that works in any situation. I am made from bamboo fabric, arguably the most eco friendly fabric available. Bamboo fabric has a natural anti-bacterial quality as well as a luxurious touch and amazing temperature control properties to keep you cool when its hot and warm when its cold.

MY STORY: I am a great lounging pant or ideal for winter practise or checking the waves. Guaranteed to keep you warm and toasty while remaining remarkably stylish at the same time. My small print is a reminder you are part of something more than just another clothing brand. This unique print was created from a drawing by Alexis, a young boy from Nuevo Futuro with plenty of talent. The drawing is inspired by the masks of Peruvian version of carnival. ”El Peru te mira” translates to ”Peru is looking at you”
