Sense Clothing | The Tunic Pant Has Got You Covered!
With the big buzz going around about the “shortage” of yoga pants and the alleged “see-through” pant, we thought it was time to formally introduce our gem of a pant- the Sense Essential Tunic Pant.
Sense Essential Tunic Pant
Every apparel business has a foundation style – the “ONE” that started it all. That would be the Essential Tunic Pant from Sense. Even now in 2013 it continues to be our best selling pant. What is the allure, why does this pant do so well? Good question.
For starters when you put on a pair of Tunic Pants your entire look becomes clean, sleek and SLIM – yes this is the real hook – TUNIC PANTS MAKE YOU LOOK TEN POUNDS THINNER the minute you put them on!
This straight leg slack made of soft cotton modal provides comfort and elegance for any occasion!
Sure beats 4 weeks of cleansing, dieting, eating lettuce or whatever works! All of us at Sense are huge fans and followers of healthy living practices, eating well, exercise, & being active. Following a routine to keep our crazy world in moderation is great…but boy it sure is GREAT to slip on those Tunic Pants! Especially when you feel a little puffy or you have to sit on a plane flight for more than an hour. Or when you’re hitting the gym for a pilates or yoga class and just do not want to be bound in by your workout clothes! Plus the built in skirt/extra layer gives you full coverage to workout in confidence….no “see-through” going on with the Tunic Pant!
We love this pant so much we’ve made variations for every activity and style.
Active Tunic Capri- sporty and good for warmer classes and time of year.
Active Tunic Ankle- full coverage with the flexibility of a legging fit.
Palazzo Tunic Pant- fuller leg for a sophisticated look focused on movement.
So it is real simple – go to www.wearsense.com buy a pair of Tunic Pants, put those babies on and feel slim & fit- ready to go and never look back. Please give us a buzz at Sense -505.988.5534- if you would like to know the best size, style and fit for you – we are here to help you look and feel your best! No need to stress availability either because these items are apart of our Essentials Collection, which is timeless and stocked continuously!
Happy shoppin’ and booty covering!

Hannah Kearny: A Ski Season of Wins & Comfort in Sense
If you follow Sense on facebook (and please do!) then you’ve probably seen us hyping up Professional Skiier, Hannah Kearny. She’s not only an Olympic Gold Medalist, but she’s had quite the season this year and we’re MORE than excited for all her successes, plus her sharing her Sense love along the way!
Hannah had a set back early in the season that posted her up for several months.”Unfortunately, I took a spill during training on October 5th and had to spend 5 days in the hospital with a bruised liver, 2 fractured ribs and a small pneumothorax in my right lung. Once I was allowed to change out of my hospital gown, my teammates brought me some of my own clothing and my Sense wear was quite comfortable for my forced bed rest. Luckily, I was never in a lot of pain and I heal quickly.” –Hannah Kearny
Hannah in Switzerland sporting the Active Cami and Active Tunic Capris.
And heal quickly she did! Hannah used her injury as a boost to take full advantage of her opportunity and fight for what she wanted- to win the World Cup. Read more details of Hannah’s journey to the yellow bib straight from Team USA here.
Hannah is one incredible athlete and woman! We’ve been honored to work with Hannah for years now and just adore that she shares her adventures across the world with Sense. She is the ultimate proof that Sense Clothing is made for activities, comfort, style, and travel- the everything clothing made to handle it all!
“After a 33 day trip that took me to Calgary, Utah, Colorado, Russia and Japan I returned home for four days. I did laundry, repacked my bags and now I am waiting for the bus to Boston to catch my flight to Norway for World Championships. I believe you will recognize the Sense pants, tank and shirt I am wearing. I am sure to be comfortable on this long travel day.” – Hannah Kearney
Hannah gearing up for the World Championships in Norway wearing Sense 2nd Skin, Active Cami, and Tunic Pant.
With our hearts booming, Hannah won the FIS Freestyle Ski World Championships women’s moguls and didn’t stop there.

This past weekend Hannah took first place in Are, Sweden for women’s Dual Moguls and is now headed to Spain this weekend for finals. We cannot be more excited for her season and are rooting for her all the way to finals!
Thanks Hannah for being a Sense-ational Supporter and we look forward to seeing some pics from a restful off season- because you deserve it!

How to: Care for & Handle your Sense w/ LOVE!
This Valentine’s Day handling your love one’s with care is the norm. But what about your second love…..your clothing!? Don’t these wonderful wears that make you feel so lovely deserve to be handled with care too? Well just in time, we’ve put together a simple “how to” on caring for your Sense Clothing to keep this love affair going from one Sense Collection to the next!
First off about Modal, our main fabric-
Sense’s fabrics are knitted from the finest Lenzing Modal® yarns, an environmentally sustainable fabric derived from beechwood. Modal wears like no other knit; the colors stay vibrant wash after wash with little-to-no shrinkage. Our Collections may also offer quality Supima Cotton or Modal blends.
So how do we care for these fine fabrics?
Here’s a list of recommendations:
- Always wash on cold. This keeps the colors vibrant (plus it’s better on your energy bill!)
- Wash with similar textured fabrics- try and wash with other soft fabrics avoiding hard and tough materials (think Carhartts and NO velcro!). This provides a gentle tumble on Sense’s fabrics and will prevent rubbing and scuffing.
- Set dryer on cool. Because our fabrics are so soft, it’s best to keep the hot air away.
- Ideally, lay fabrics out flat to dry (and if you must, a light fluff in the dryer to finish them off).
Our Spring 2013 Collection offers multiple blends of fabrics that require simpler care, for example, our new 3/4 Ribbed Scoop Tunic and Reversible Ribbed Tank.
Need more info? When browsing http://www.wearsense.com, make sure to check individual care instructions (along side order and size chart tabs). This Valentines Day we hope you share the loving cheer with the people and clothing in your life!

Interview w/ Robin Beachner: Sense’s 2nd Skin is here to stay!
Sense’s 2nd Skin (top) was debuted in the Fall 2013 Collection and it looks like it’s here to stay! Hear first hand from Robin Beachner, Sense Clothing’s CEO, on the why, what, and how the 2nd Skin came into life.

What inspired you to design the 2nd Skin?
To offer a ULTRA soft piece that coordinates with all the latest Sense styles and colors. 2nd Skin is great for layering and everyone who loves Sense knows that Sense looks best when layered up!
How did you choose the fabric?
100% micro tencel is one of the finest fabrics you will ever experience. It helps regulate body temperature and has anti-bacterial properties. It’s sheer yet provides the perfect amount of coverage for you to layer under your favorite tops or alone with a sexy half tank under it. The micro tencel saturates the color giving us vibrant amazing hues. This is a top that will be worn over and over! The colors resist fading and micro tencel will not shrink!
What are your favorite ways to wear the 2nd Skin?
Layer a long sleeve 2nd Skin under your favorite summer top! Turn your favorite tank into an all year round item. It’s great to layer under those scratchy wool sweaters or under a hip sequenced vest. We have a customer that wears hers backwards so the scoop is in the back. It’s super elegant that way!

Wearing the 2nd Skin is so easy (hence the name 2nd Skin!) and can be worn any time of year. Because of it’s light weight, softness, and versatility we’ve decided to offer the 2nd Skin in every Collection. Stay tuned for the Spring 2013 2nd Skin line up and please share your creative 2nd Skin styling on our facebook page!
