Durable, functional, smart, sexy...and hard to take off, once you've put them on. Tailored from an organically grown cotton/spandex blend, with movement and comfort in mind.

These were the first pants I have purchased from Nau. Note that I purchased several Nau shorts this summer and absolutely love them. The sizing on these pants were outrageously too small. I'm a standard size 8/10 in typical clothing stores and I couldn't even fit into these pants, which were a size 12!!!! If these were meant to be designed for outdoorsy, athletic women, then they really missed the mark.

These sleek, organic cotton pants are inspired by the classic five-pocket denim design. Integrated back pockets create a seamless look. Lighter double-twill weave construction and a touch of spandex add even more movement and durability.

Not sure what demographic these were intended?

All the benefits of wool combine in the quintessential summer short. Taking cues from tailored suiting and vintage hiking shorts, this breathable, durable and odor-resistant short looks good and wears well even after a few days on the trail.

These shorts were absolutely a treasured find. They are super sturdy and well made. I love that they provide a great clean, sophisticated look, even though they are shorts. The length is great, given that I have a 35" inseam. They fall just above my knees. I also love that they fit in the thighs since I tend to have larger thighs than most women, because of all the running, yoga, hiking, and bike riding that I do. Thanks! Wonderful!

This isn't your average Henley. Extra-soft organic cotton jersey floats and moves with the body. Asymmetrical neckline and varied stripe direction creates a flattering design with subtle visual texture.

I absolutely love the design of the shirt. There's a lot of great stylistic features that you might miss, but really give the shirt character. My only complaint is that since the fabric is sewn in different directions (horizontal versus vertical) when you wash and hang to dry, it doesn't sit evenly any more. It's not terribly noticeable, but still a minor flaw.

The essential layer for dressing up or dressing down, with a soft neckline and perfect seams for a more flattering fit. Soft, natural, merino wool makes gives this v-neck a breathable lightness that suits cool spring climbs and warm summer hikes.

What an excellent wool shirt! The fabric is very soft and comfortable and not at all itchy. I also loved the little added flare for the collar. It's a nice rugged cut, but a clean structure. I would disagree that the shirt isn't long enough. I'm 5'11" and I don't show skin when I bend over or reach for something high.

A simple, yet flirtatious button-front blouse designed with a skin-smooth organic cotton and silk weave fabric. Fitted cap sleeves, pin tuck front and fullness at the shoulders add quiet details perfect for dressing up or dressing down.

I love love love this shirt. I often find that capped-sleeved shirts look ridiculous on me given that I wear a D-cup bra and have strong, broad shoulders from years and years of swimming. This was a wonderful, light-weight, feminine shirt that didn't make me look like the Hulk! The color was beautiful too.
