Rocking THE Athleisure

Who doesn’t love the idea of feeling completely comfortable all day long while simultaneously looking stylish? While that concept

may have once just been a dream, in today’s modern world it’s a reality.

Thanks to the booming trend of athleisure, a man can now look good and feel good at the

same time.

Although there will always be a need for a sharp, tailored suit, sports luxe and athleisure styles are infiltrating and overtaking weekend wardrobes everywhere. With top brands, such as the perennially stylish Ted Baker, leading the way with new, sophisticated and subtly sports-influenced collections, the athleisure trend looks set to continue its domination of the fashion world. After all, who can resist the effortless and cool vibes that radiate from a bomber jacket or the practicality and clean styling of a pair of white trainers?

Many men may think that athleisure is as simple as wearing their gym clothes to lunch, but the reality is more sophisticated than that. Athleisure is a way of dressing that combines sportswear with ready-to-wear. It’s just perfect for the modern man whose busy lifestyle demands him to be always on the go while looking completely stylish; athleisure puts practicality and functionality into the world of fashion. It consists of high-performance fabrics, athletic details, and sportswear fastenings paired with weekend essentials like denim, chinos, T-shirts, and coats.

Since its inception, athleisure has grown into an incredibly popular trend and is now an accepted dress code for countless occasions. Of course, where athleisure is most at home is on the weekend. Whether headed to lunch, drinks with the boys, a sports match or even a casual date, athleisure can make a stylish choice. The man just has to make sure that his sportswear pieces are clean, neat, and wellpresented to guarantee a sophisticated casual look.

When the weekend is over, it may be best to put athleisure away. Despite being on-trend and cool, athleisure only works for relaxed occasions. When it comes to formal and business settings, such as the office, a meeting or a wedding, it’s best to stick to formalwear.
