In the past, athletic wear was mostly regarded as clothing you’d only wear to the gym, but as trends shift toward comfort-driven styles, sportswear brands are more popular than ever — even for non-athletes.

With performance as the primary focus, athletic wear is naturally more comfortable than other articles of clothing like suits, button-down shirts, and jeans. With more people gravitating to it for everyday use, the styles have evolved to be fashionable, functional, and in some cases even suitable for the office.

Sportswear giants such as Nike, Puma, and Adidas, as well as several amazing startups such as Rhone, Public Rec, and Olivers Apparel feature a variety of athletic wear that will keep you comfortable and looking good.

Whether you’re a true athlete or someone simply looking for clothes with more versatility, athletic wear is where you should look.

Check out some of the most stylish athletic wear brands below.

Rhone

Designed for the modern man, Rhone is one of the most versatile activewear brands around. They offer all kinds of tops, bottoms, and accessories that will perform well for your workouts and look great in the street.

Public Rec

In terms of athletic wear, T-shirts are a staple, and Public Rec makes one of the best. Made from a proprietary fabric blend of Tencel, Pima cotton, and spandex, the Go-To Tee is designed to wick moisture and never shrink, at the same time staying soft and stretchy.

T-shirts aren’t the only thing they’ve executed well. In 2016, the startup company received so much praise for its All Day Everyday Pant, a pair of sweatpants nice enough to wear to the office, which it sold out and ended up with a 1200-person waitlist. Now they’re fully back in stock along with the new All Day Everyday Joggers.

Comments Off on Milan Men’s Fashion Week and Women’s Fashion Week to merge in September for first time ever

Like
many other industries, fashion is deeply affected by the spread of coronavirus.
The pandemic is currently causing major changes in the year’s fashion week
schedule.

This September, Milan’s Fashion Week will combine men and women’s collections for the first time, with the men’s shows planned for June now postponed due to the virus.

On Friday, The National Chamber of Italian Fashion Camera Nazionale Della Moda announced the change and confirmed that the men’s shows, which were scheduled to run on June 19-23, will now run alongside the women’s shows, which were planned on September 22-28. The decision was made with the aim of preventing the spread of the coronavirus.

In a statement, the organization also outlined
possible changes for showcasing the men’s designers in June.

It read: “We are however working on new digital formats and new ways of encounter, in order to create new storytelling on the days originally scheduled for the Milan Men’s Fashion Week: b2b and b2c platforms for the benefit of brands, luxury companies, and all the other players in the fashion industry.

“We are aware that great efforts will be made in
order to have the new collections ready by June to start an innovative selling
campaign.”

The news comes when French fashion’s governing body Fédération
de la Haute Couture et de la Mode also cancel its upcoming couture shows and men’s
shows, planned for 5th to 9th July and 23rd to 28th June, respectively.

The Fédération wrote in a statement, “In light of
the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic worldwide, strong decisions are required to
ensure the safety and health of houses, their employees, and everyone working
in our industry,”.

In the same way, the British Fashion Council has postponed the men’s shows planned for June, saying that it was finding new ways to digitalize their fashion showcase platforms while the Council for Fashion Designers of America also canceled the upcoming resort 2021 shows.
