Can Clothes Evolve Like Us? Ayurvedic Activewear with Manju Bargavi | Rooted by Arpitharai

In this episode of Rooted by Arpitharai, I sit down with Manju Bargavi, co-founder of Itisu, a sustainable activewear brand that combines Ayurvedic dyeing, local artisan collaboration, and plant-based color innovation.

We explore what it means to create clothes that change over time—reflecting the wearer’s journey. Manju shares her insights from working in Tirupur, the philosophy behind Itisu, and why she believes sustainable fashion must go beyond materials into mindset.

If you’re curious about Ayurvedic textiles, soil-based dyeing, or the future of mindful activewear—this conversation is for you.
