Destira

Destira is a gymnastics and girls' activewear brand run from San Carlos, California, where its distribution center packs online orders. According to the brand, founder Donna began making leotards for her own gymnast daughters about 30 years ago, and those daughters now run the company, which calls itself family- and women-owned. Partners in Los Angeles cut and sew its designs.

What Destira sells

• Gymnastics leotards, unitards and long-sleeve leotards in toddler, kids', teen and adult sizes
• Warm-up jackets and leggings, high-waisted performance shorts and sport tanks for tennis, dance and training
• One-piece swimsuits, bikini sets and rash guards
• Grip bags, scrunchies and doll-size leotards made from leftover leotard fabric
• Custom team and competition wear for gyms, plus wholesale and consignment stock for pro shops

The brand's sustainability notes say its noissue mailers are made from 100% post-consumer recycled material and that it uses carbon-neutral shipping.

Delivery and returns

Destira aims to dispatch US orders within 4 business days, or within 1 to 2 business days for Priority, Express and Air services. USPS First Class costs $6.95 and takes 6 to 10 business days, while USPS Priority, Express and UPS services are priced by weight at checkout. Orders whose subtotal is over $99 before tax and shipping ship free within the contiguous US. International parcels travel by DHL, USPS or UPS, and the buyer pays any taxes and duties.

Unworn garments with every tag and the matching scrunchie still attached can be returned or exchanged within 30 days of delivery. A refund costs a flat $6.95 when the prepaid label is used; the first exchange ships free both ways and later exchanges cost $6.95. Refunds can take up to 20 business days to appear. Custom and team orders come back only for manufacturing defects, and wholesale orders cannot be returned.
