A NEWBIES GUIDE TO ATHLEISURE
SNEAKERS
Flex Experience RN 7 from Nike, $59
Pulse XT V2 FT Men’s Footwear from Puma, $59
Getting the right pair of kicks is essential for the athleisure look. Find a style with both form and function that you can hit the gym with and run errands in. Stay sporty chic with a pair of neutral black sneakers for everyday wear or take the bolder route by choosing one with splashes of colour.
SPORTSWEAR TOPS
Men’s Top from Kappa, $25
The athleisure phenomena has led to brands coming out with more stylish tops that you can wear even when you’re not AT the gym. Their sweatproof and moisture wicking material make sports tops super functional for when you’re out and about. Don’t want to look too casual? Elevate your outfit with sweat pants or khaki coloured berms for a trendier look.
TANK TOPS
Ladies AC Running Top from Reebok, $55
Tank tops are a must-have basic when building your athleisure closet. Our hot and humid weather make these a lifesaver and a choice option for all-day comfort. A tip to instantly look more put together is to toss on a lightweight windbreaker or a thin sweatshirt, and you’re good to go!
POLO SHIRTS
Polo Tee from Fila, $59
The athleisure trend has brought polos back in style as a smarter option for those who want to jump on the activewear bandwagon and yet still look semi-formal. Dress it up with a pair of jeans and sneakers or keep it sporty with slim fit joggers.
