Pants Photo Gallery and Testimonials
 "The pants
arrived Thursday. I wore them Friday, Saturday, Sunday and
then I wore them to this morning's class and then I wore
them into work before putting on the business casual (ie.
"wanker") duds. Love, love, love them! It's like being naked
from the waist down! You are the bees' knees, Rosie. Thanks
for great pants, great service and being great all round.
I'm a new fan, Laura" (instructor at the Yoga Source, Newmarket,

Hi Rosie, I got my shipment, opened the box and my first response to the feel of the bamboo items was ahhhhh. Well, trying on those tanks, I immediately ordered more, like seriously within 10 minutes I had put in another order. They are a must have, in every colour. The pants aren’t called the dream for nothing, and the bamboo are something you could live in. I might never wear that “other” yoga clothing again! I can’t wait to see what Dear Lil Deva’s comes up with next, and I sure am enjoying what they offer now.
Thanks Rosie, you’re a bright light!

 "I have to say that there could not possibly be a more perfect brand of yoga clothing out there! As a massage therapist, pilates teacher and yoga teacher, I can truly appreciate the need to feel comfortable, and allow your body to move freely without feeling self conscious or restricted at all. The Dear Lil' Devas clothing line is absolutely wonderful, and the fabrics and colors give you so many options to choose from, that your combinations are endless! I strive to promote only the most ecologically viable options in products at my studio, and Karen and Rosie make that simple. Their care for the environment and working conditions, the quality craftsmanship, and the attention to detail in client needs is second to none. I applaud you for truly being inspirational Devas yourselves! Thanks for the wonderful product line, and your continued enthusiasm."

 "I wear my bamboo tank top to physiotherapy, the gym, yoga class, and my training walks. I purchased several of them, and out of my stash of tank tops, I have 2 pink ones to wear for our Weekend to End Breast cancer walk in September. I also purchased 2 pink ecodannas, so even if I decide not to wear a pink tank top for each day (but I will wear one of my DLD tank tops because they wick away perspiration so well), I will definitely have my 'mop cloth' ecodanna each day! I've been using them for our training walks to keep the sun and mosquitoes off my neck AND it wicks sweat."

"I just arrived home about an hr. ago from our WEBC walk. We had an amazing time despite the rain. Honestly, I think it's because we looked good in our clothes. The cut and fit is classic and flattering to our body shapes. Our team ranged in sizes small to large."
 "I've been looking at my photos again and I'm really pleased at how well we fit in them. Mariola kept thanking me for getting them - she finds hers so comfy. Lily washed and slept in hers the first night she got hers, to get the feel of it. Bibs commented a few times about how much she likes hers and how it doesn't cling. I've compared our last years photos to this years and I can tell how much more comfy I felt walking this year, just by the look on my face. We're all very proud that we completed the walk, raised the money, awareness and our hopes to find a cure as well as shared our accomplisment with 4700 like minded participants. I took the day off to get a massage, rest and think about this past weekend. Thank you for the congrats, I'll share them with my team - hey, as their team captain, I'm out of a job now that the weekend is over....I'm laid off! :-("

"I recently spent a month in India and I am very grateful for having brought 2 pairs of Dream Pants with me. Not only are they super comfortable (which is very important if your flight ends up taking 20 hours!) , but they are extremely light in weight and take up very little space. Additionally, they wash easily and dry overnight. I highly recommend them for any type of travelling, especially in hot climates because they not only covered me from the sun but were very breathable. Thanks Dear Lil' Devas for helping to make my trip so enjoyable!"
"We've just placed another order of pants - and people
who had already bought a pair are looking for more. They
are the best thing to wear on hot sticky days, and they're
wearing them till they stink! Hence the need for multiple
pairs in the closet. Another student who lives her Lil Devas
has 4 pairs - 2 pairs of black and 2 pairs of umber - cause
she won't wear any other colour!
i love my lil devas - wear them all the time. all my other
pants were too hot for Yoga in warm weather, so these are
perfect. Kind of like wearing nothing at all, only more
socially acceptable! - liisa"

"you've out done yourselves. again!
Hi Karen!
I received my first pair of bamboo pants on Saturday. It’s Monday morning and I’m still wearing them. Is it possible that these pants could be even more comfortable and fabulous than the cotton dream pants?! They are so soft and drape so nicely. I’m going on my first trip to Kripalu this weekend….maybe they will have the bamboo pants there…..?
Thanks again for your thoughtful design and dedication to good vibes.
Love and light,
Dawn
PS – My friend Amy ordered a pair of your pants, wore them all day, and sent me this text message, “I want to marry these pants”. LOL. :0)"
"I have had several students ask about where to get good pants for practicing their Yoga. In May I picked up my first pair of Dear Lil Devas pants made from pure, lighter than heaven Indian cotton. I loved them so much that I recently looked into having some stock on hand in the studio. Try them on here and you will see why so many have come to love the freedom and lightness that this 100% Canadian company has come up with in their unique design and fit."

"I love Dear Lil' Devas Yoga pants! They are light weight,
beautiful colours, and feel completely comfortable with
plenty of room for any body size. Every stitch is handmade
with loving-care."

"Omigosh, We love the pants. Coincidentally, my daughter had just driven home for school between classes and she tried some on right away. These are the first unisex, drawstring pants (with a panel especially) that she has ever really liked. She wanted to take the red ones back to school right away. She thinks they will be perfect for rock climbing (maybe just indoor now that i'm thinking about it) but she says she will wear them to practice (yoga) also. She doesn't like stretchy clothing either but she's very slim so other pants (thai pants etal) swam on her.
That they are good for me who likes extra fabric and for her who doesn't ordinarily, says a lot about the construction of the pants. Also the fabric is wonderful and the attention to detail didn't escape us either. Right down to the tags we were very impressed, (and happy)."

"Rosie, I need another pair of pants! I took them with me
to a slumber party, but lent them to my best friend because
she forgot her pj's and I had to leave.... anyhow, she won't
give them back to me, she loves them soooo much! BUT, I
can't live without them, especially now with just 1 month
to go!!!!"

"I purchased the black hemp & cotton yoga bag. By
the way, when I purchased the yoga bag, one of the staff,
while cashing it out, asked me about it, did an "oooh, ahhh",
what a nice bag!...great idea with the roll up clip" (he
told me that he has camping gear which utilizes that concept
to make it water proof - I didn't know that. My cousin who
takes a class with me, looked it over and ooohed and ahhed
over the space & pockets and clips. It was quite the conversation
piece! Keep up the amazing work" Jean Yee.
"I am a yoga teacher and bought a pair of your dear
lil deva pants in Brampton Ontario and I just love them!
I am going to get another pair. I just wanted to let you
know how comfortable, light and just plain beautiful they
are. Thank you, Namaste", Rita Linzi-Rei, RYT, RP-CRA

"The hemp pants are great. I had the black ones on last Saturday, while rescuing a kitten from the center lane of the freeway, and they were the perfect thing to be wearing. The kitten is fine except for a small cut on his nose (miracle), and we've named him Gilbert."

" Dear Lil' Devas Traditional Yoga Pants have been a breath
of fresh air at both of our Yoga Sanctuary locations (College
St., and Danforth Ave.). A lighter, more relaxed option
to the sameness of a lot of the other athletica yoga lines.
Many of our instructors have purchased more than one pair
for themselves and promote them to their students. Light
on the skin, allowing for great movement and breathability,
easy to care for, and a fair price point even though made
in Canada, are a few of the Devas pants' benefits. And what
we really love are the people involved in the company...
their commitment to their product, their reliability and
the fact that they are local."
