Why Athleisure Is All The Fashion You Need These Days

December 4, 2020 · Fashion, Fitness, Gear




These days, most of what we’re wearing is athleisure. Leggings, jogging pants and comfortable shirts is our daily workwear while typing away on our keyboards from our home office. Not only that, you can use those same outfits to do your workouts, making them interchangeable. If you haven’t embraced it yet, you just may have to as even though the light is beaming at the end of the tunnel with the arrival of the vaccine, we’re a long ways ahead from resettling into pre-2020 habits.

Athleisure Growth

US Athleisure items to account for 31% of apparel sales this month. According to the research by Comprar Acciones, the global activewear market is expected to be worth $353.45 billion in 2020. Fashion sales may be down but brands like Lululemon witnessed growth thanks to an increase driven by its e-commerce boom.

Per GlobalData, a data analysis firm, uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic impacted sentiments in 2019 for Lululemon’s. Despite shuttered stores in 2020, it did not affect sentiments, as e-commerce sales and gym-at-home trends proved to be a boon.

Nike had a 75% increase in online sales. For Adidas, online sales surged by 93%. Puma saw its e-commerce sales rise by 40%. Old Navy’s activewear segment surged 55%. Athleta, which deals in female workout clothes had a 35% sales increase. 

Rise of Home Workouts

A gyms reopening study by Run Repeat to learn how many people have returned since their gym reopened and what they plan to do moving forward showed that:

  • Only 30.98% of gym members have returned to their gyms since the initial lockdowns.
  • 59.06% have cancelled or are considering cancelling their memberships (19.59% cancelled, 40.11% considering)
  • Consumer confidence in gyms globally has decreased significantly since March, with:
    • 22.35% fewer members have returned to their gyms than had expected to by now
    • 22.49% more have already canceled or are considering canceling their memberships than in March

With the increased demand of athleisure, and deceased confidence in gym workouts, it gives rise to home workouts. Eventually the interest of companies like Lululemon to invest in home workouts grows to meet demand. In June 2020, they acquired home fitness brand Mirror, a monthly subscription service. Like others, they expect to capitalize on the rise of at-home workouts while competing with players such as Nike and Peloton.

But Lululemon is not the only company offering athleisure. Here are other brands that offer an array of great items for you and anyone on your list.

Supplements

To help with your workouts, try the Fat Burning Lemonade. It’s a high performance fitness, weight loss dietary supplement. It accelerates your metabolic rate using fat for fuel. It will also get you into ketosis faster by accessing your stored carbohydrates, meaning that you burn up the carb stored in your body faster. Your endurance may improve as a result when consumed consistently. Drink on an empty stomach before meals and before a workout. Keep it simple and mix 1 scoop with 8 oz of water, tea, or sparkling water. Try the Fat Burning Lemonade and use code Rania.


The Gist of it

Athleisure has dominated 2020 style. While many of us didn’t imagine, it is now our new reality and may be with us for some time. Key players in the activewear space are adapting to change consumer trends by embracing direct-to-consumer sales online. If you are still looking for gifts for those on your list or even some items for yourself, the list above covers all the basics, including cleansing, workouts and supplements.

With the pandemic increasing, demand for health an With the pandemic increasing, demand for health and wellness products, bath and body care are becoming more popular. 

@cleanlogic products have anti-microbial protection to prevent growth of bacteria 🦠 or mold. 

I’ve tried the dual texture exfoliating body scrubber 🧽 , facial pads with an exfoliating side and a microfiber side to remove makeup, and the detox purifying charcoal body scrubber. 

They’re made with clean ingredients, have recyclable packaging, are cruelty free and contain Braille to help the visually impaired read their labels. In  addition, a portion of the proceeds go towards blind and visually impaired charities.

Give it a try!

Tomorrow’s our last day in 2020. So happy new ye Tomorrow’s our last day in 2020. So happy new year 🎆 early! It has been an interesting year 🧐, not just the pandemic, but personally, growth, challenges and several new beginnings. It has also made me realize how important it is to inform people about the suffering of others, even if it’s not a niche I specialize in as a blogger/micro-influencer. Passing the message onto the rest of us is what may help their plight to gain human rights, improve their living conditions, live safely  without fear, or get them access to help. On that note, may 2021 bring on better days for all!

What are you looking forward to in 2021?
