Athleisure for women

Sportswear collaborations, running silhouettes and leisure pieces.

Athleisure brings athletic tracksuits, running shoes and training layers into daily dressing across women and men. Tailored wool trousers temper relaxed cotton hoodies, while technical fabrics meet rich suede and leather in black, white and grey. Balance anchors the silhouette through clean cuts worn alongside performance gear.

The word joins athletic and leisure, and the trend grew in the middle of the twenty tens, after yoga pants became popular. Hoka, founded in Annecy, France, in the late two thousands by two former Salomon employees, is known for running shoes with thick, cushioned soles. Adidas x Wales Bonner, the British designer Grace Wales Bonner's line with Adidas, includes Sambas with crochet stripes.

Sneakers, hoodies and outerwear form the base. Pair technical jackets with tailored pants or structured cotton coats. Utopia in Toronto brings Nike, New Balance and Adidas sneakers and Aime Leon Dore. Due West in Toronto brings Veja and Adidas x Wales Bonner sneakers, WDLT117 in Toronto brings Marine Serre, and parlor23 in Toronto brings Hoka running shoes.
