For my daughters.For yours too.<\/p>\n\n

One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some point.It’s a reality that caught up with me last year.Just as I was about to launch my clothing line, life forced me to press pause.<\/p>\n\n

Today, I am recovered.But my body is different.<\/strong>And I chose to To come back as I am. To stay true to myself. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

I come back with an even clearer vision of what I want to defend.Uhumain is not just a brand. It’s a commitment.For the living. For health. For a kinder world \u2014 towards our bodies, towards our daughters. <\/p>\n\n

Giving back in a new way<\/h4>\n\n

With Uhumain, I have chosen to integrate a concrete gesture into my business model:5% of the sale price of the Pink Ribbon collection will be donated to the Quebec Breast Cancer Foundation.<\/p>\n\n

What for?Because the Foundation supported me, as it supports thousands of women every day.Because it invests in research, so that one day, our daughters will no longer have to go through what so many of us have been through.Because prevention also involves information, and it is time to talk about the endocrine disruptors that are hidden in so-called “technical” sports textiles.<\/p>\n\n

Offering an alternative<\/h4>\n\n

Technical sportswear often undergoes an antibacterial treatment against odors, in addition to being designed with synthetic fibers loaded with chemical additives.They offer performance, yes \u2014 but also an invisible toxic charge, for the body and the environment.<\/p>\n\n

With Uhumain, I propose another way:Garments with fewer toxins, designed to meet the real needs of athletes, without sacrificing health or performance.<\/p>\n\n

For more than two years, I had different materials tested by long-distance runners, in real conditions.It is this patient, rigorous, profoundly human process that allowed me to find the ideal combination.<\/p>\n\n

Uhumain clothing is not made of 100% merino wool \u2014 and that’s intentional.I opted for a carefully thought-out blend of fibers, to combine performance, durability and comfort.Merino wool remains the dominant fiber, always in direct contact with the skin, to offer its exceptional properties: breathability, softness, thermal regulation and natural resistance to odors.<\/p>\n\n

This choice is an assumed compromise: to offer the best of both worlds.Technical clothing for long distances, but healthier, more durable, and more respectful of the living.<\/p>\n\n

A garment that feels good<\/h4>\n\n

I dream of a fashion that heals instead of harming.A shirt that warms the body… and who supports a cause.A useful garment, not only to the wearer,but also to the society that makes it possible.<\/p>\n\n

Thank you for being part of this Uhuman movement.Thank you for believing in it with me.<\/p>\n\n
