Faye's take
One of the very few gym-focused brands making pieces that are genuinely single-fibre — 100% organic cotton or 100% merino wool, with no elastane blended in for stretch. Ryker publish a brand-level statement about GOTS-certified sourcing and OEKO-TEX partners but don't print a per-SKU licence number, so Faye admits only the single-fibre pieces where the fibre claim is explicit on the SKU page. Their two-fibre pieces (like the Apex Short with a cotton shell + wool liner) are held for review rather than admitted, so you know exactly what you're getting.
How they started
Ryker was founded in 2023 out of frustration with conventional activewear made from polyester and chemicals such as BPA. The founders set out to build performance clothing from natural and organic fabrics with ethical manufacturers, offering the fit of synthetic activewear without plastic materials.
