Nicolas Witt

“The yoga community deserved better than brands built on exploitation. I needed activewear that lived up to the philosophy of Ahimsa, so I built it myself.”

Studio Nidra started with a problem on Nicolas Witt's own yoga mat: he could not find pieces that held up the way he wanted, so instead of starting with a cut, he started with the cloth itself. Working with the textile house Pyratex, he developed a knit built on Tencel with recycled elastane for stretch and hold, then placed the sewing in Braga, in northern Portugal, by hand and in small numbers. He designs from Zürich, where he practises, and has kept the range deliberately short: leggings, a hybrid top, sweatshirts, socks.

I have three questions for you, and something in return.

Three questions.

Studio Nidra Clothing · Zürich, Switzerland

A fabric before a collection

Studio Nidra makes yoga and movement wear cut from a fabric it developed with the textile house Pyratex, built on Tencel and sewn by hand in Braga, in northern Portugal. Nicolas Witt designs the pieces in Zürich.

Two cloths run through the range and they do different jobs. The pieces for the mat are cut from a Tencel micro knit, matte rather than shiny, with stretch in four directions that pulls back into shape. The sweatshirts use another cloth, brushed on the outside until it feels something like the skin of a peach, and the brand named it PeachTech.

On the leggings the waistband is cut from the same cloth as the leg, so there is no separate band sitting on the skin, and the gusset panel is doubled. The hybrid top has a high neck and a racer back. Both carry a sun and a moon, embroidered small enough to miss. The sweatshirts carry the name instead, stitched at the chest, with a woven label at the neck.

Everything but the socks is made by hand in Braga, in the north of Portugal, in small numbers. The socks go their own way: organic cotton, knitted in Ukraine, ribbed, with two black stripes and a smile knitted in.

Two cloths, a short range, and a mark you have to look for.
