Nike’s Newest Collection Looks Runway Ready
Fleece doesn’t exactly scream “high fashion,” despite a recent trend among top men’s wear designers to insert athletic-inspired elements into their collections. But a new line of Nike active wear has elevated the utilitarian sports fabric. The Nike Tech Fleece Collection, available Aug. 29, features five pieces of casual sportswear made from Nike’s reinvented fabric — a plush foam core sandwiched between layers of smooth cotton jersey, which is both warmer and lighter than standard fleece. Cut in slimmer silhouettes with minimal topstitching and seaming, the jackets, sweatshirts and sweatpants have a modern, clean look that is as ready for the runway as it is for the gym.
