Sustainable activewear for girls, built to move with her.

Italian eco-stretch fabric. Wide waistbands that won't roll. Designed to last past the next growth spurt.

Scout Active is performance activewear designed for girls 4-14. Every piece is cut from Italian-milled eco-stretch fabric chosen for lower water use, recycled-fibre content, and 4-way movement that holds up through class, school sport, and weekend. Wide waistbands sit flat. Crops stay down. Leggings keep their shape past the wash. Considered design, sustainable fabric, no trade-off on performance.

What is in the Scout Active range

The range covers leggings in three lengths (Lyla 7/8, Charlie 3/4, Zoe 7/8 with sculpting black panels), three crop top cuts (Mila racer back, Indy strap back, Lucia with power-mesh panels in collaboration with Pink Lemon Dancewear), shorts in two cuts (Dash active short for warm-weather training, Lucia bike short with wide waistband), a relaxed-fit cotton tank tee, and matching scrunchies made from recycled fabric off-cuts.

Across all of it, eight signature prints rotate through the season: Luna's soft galaxy palette, Coral Coast peach and aqua, vibrant Florida Floral, Purple Diamond geometric, Sky Leopard blue-tone, Sprinkle Paint speckle, plus Pink Snake Skin and Purple Snake Skin on the Lucia collab line.

Why Scout Active

Italian-milled fabric. Most performance fabric in girls activewear comes from large-volume mills with no transparency on water use, dye chemistry, or worker conditions. Scout Active uses eco-stretch fabric milled in Italy by small-batch sportswear specialists with decades of refined dye processes that use measurably less water than conventional sportswear dyeing.

Recycled-fibre content. Where the design allows, Scout Active fabric incorporates recycled fibre. This is a measurable percentage, not a marketing line. Even the matching scrunchies are made from off-cuts of the same fabric, reducing offcut waste from production.

Built-to-last fit. Activewear sized for growing girls usually has one job: survive a growing body. Scout Active is generous through the rise and the body so a piece bought at size 8 can hold shape past the next growth spurt and pass down to a younger sibling.

Wide waistbands. Every legging and short has a wide flat waistband, sits comfortably above the hip bone, doesn't roll or dig in, and stays put through pliés, jumps, and full-floor movement.

Common questions

What sizes does Scout Active cover?
Girls 6-14 across the main range, with the Lucia line extended to Child 4 plus Adults XSmall for older teens and slim adult builds.

Is Scout Active true to Australian girls sizing?
Yes. If your daughter sits between sizes, size up for length and let the wide waistband do the work.

Where is Scout Active made?
Fabric is milled in Italy by small-batch sportswear specialists. Garments are cut and sewn to Scout Active specifications.

How should I care for it?
Cold machine wash inside-out (30C or under), no fabric softener, line dry away from direct sun. Done properly, a piece will hold shape past one growth spurt. See the full care guide.

Is it actually eco-friendly?
The fabric uses recycled-fibre content where the design allows and is dyed with lower-impact dye processes that use less water than conventional sportswear dyeing. We don't claim zero impact. We claim better choices, transparently made. Read more on what real eco-friendly looks like.
