Be Present, a clothing line carried in yoga studios, boutiques, spas and resorts throughout the U.S. and world, has launched new activewear for men and women, featuring designs which incorporate the yoga philosophy.

The company collaborated with Cameron Shayne, founder of Budokon (a yoga and marital arts company that offers training, workshops, retreats and activewear) to create the first pant designed for the Budokon art form, which combines yoga with martial arts.

The pant is made of high-performance Breathe Weave fabric and has a fit similar to a karate pant. It features three-inch side slits, inset pockets and an elastic waistband, as well as a drawstring waistband. It falls just above the ankle bone to keep the wearer from stepping on the pant during practice. The Budokon pant retails at $69 and is available in sizes S through XL.

In addition, the company has also launched new styles of women’s French terry items: the French terry skirt, resort pant and lounge pant.

The knit skirt sits on the hips and features an A-line cut. It falls just above the knee and has a 1.5 inch contrasting waistband. This skirt retails at $45 and is available in sizes XS through XL.

The resort pant is self-described as a “must-have” and features front patch pockets, a drawstring waist and a contrasting waistband. The resort pant retails at $69 and is available in sizes XS through XL.

Lastly, the lounge pant is similar to the company’s best-seller bamboo lounge pant. It is fitted in the waist, seat and hips with a slightly flared leg. This pant retails at $69 and is available in sizes XS through XL.
