At some point in the last 50 years, the clothes in our closets transitioned from natural fibers like cotton to synthetic fabrics with names we can’t pronounce or spell—think polyethelyne terephthalate (more commonly known as polyester). But the Organic Trade Association estimates that 39 percent of Americans are getting back to basics and searching out chemical-free products once again—chemical-free means irritant-free, for both the skin and the planet. Here are four Colorado companies that can clothe the entire family in comfortable and eco-friendly fashions.

For Mom Wisdom Sleeveless Tank, $37
Beckons Organic Boulderites Ann Sather and Becky Prater blend yoga functionality and fashion with their line of organic cotton clothes for women. The hip styles and colors work whether you’re doing the Downward Dog or going to downtown brunch. 303-881-0872, www.beckonsorganic.com

For Dad Organic Oh Yes T-shirt in Sea Blue, $24
ONNO The folks at ONNO have been selling T-shirts for 15 years, but in 2007 they switched their focus to organic and natural fibers.
