Our Intention

Third Eye Threads is on an adventure. We’re bringing our fabulous t-shirts to you! With any adventure, mission or new path, we set an intention.

WHY?
Not only do we make great clothes, we also practice yoga. And part of our tantric yoga philosophy tells us to set an intention.


INTENTION
The intention is what reminds us WHY we do things. It keeps us grounded. It’s our foundation.

When things get confusing we go back to our intention, and it reminds us why our pursuit is important.

WE’LL SHARE
We call our intention the "Third Eye Threads Manifesto."

Each week we'll go into detail about one part of it. We'll give you stories, interviews and personal experiences.

But it's all listed below, if you'd like to read it now!

MAKE IT YOURS
Go ahead. Use our manifesto, or part of it, to help you set your intention.

Because that’s why we’re here. To help you Be Playful. Be Powerful. Be Beautiful.

A Little Inspiration

Here's a quote Chad found in Charlie Trotter’s book Charlie Trotter’s.

It's become part of our philosophy, and we thought you might like it too!

“Until there is commitment, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too.

All sorts of things occur to help that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues forth from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you can do or dream you can do, begin it.

Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.

Begin it now!”

ABOUT
Third Eye Threads is a vintage-inspired, eco-friendly yoga and active-wear line made by yogis for you, (yes, you!) with Love!

We want you to wear your Third Eye Threads and feel empowered to Be Powerful; Be Playful; Be Beautiful…because we know you already are!

MISSION
Third Eye Threads is a grassroots effort (that means we work hard because we believe in this!) founded by certified Anusara yoga teacher Chad Satlow in 2003.

Our clothes are socially responsible and eco-friendly. AND—they’re designed and organically produced in the United States.

YOGA
Third Eye Threads incorporates yogic symbols, (like Ganesh the obstacle-free elephant) that encourage everyone to uncover their inner yogi.

But don’t worry if you’ve never even stepped one toe on a yoga mat.

“A yogi isn’t just someone practicing yoga—it applies to everyone who acts skillfully in the community, aligns with grace and lives from the heart,” says Satlow .

STYLE
Third Eye Threads incorporates a late ‘60’s and early ‘70’s vintage style.

Why? Because it’s an era that stands for change, reminds us each individual can make a difference, and encourages us to care for our planet.

FRIENDS
Third Eye Threads is currently worn by many of the world’s best yoga teachers including: Sri. K. Pattabhi Jois, Sharath Jois, Erich Schiffman, Desiree Rumbaugh, Amy Ippolittie, Sean Corn, Lilias Folan and Sianna Sherman.

And we’d like you to join us...because we're raising the vibration of the world one t-shirt at a time!
