5 Ways To Wear Mens Athleisure Wear

Imagine looking sharp at the club and feeling as comfortable as you would be at home lounging on the couch. Thanks to athleisure wear you now can. Celebrities such as Kendall Jenner, Drake, Kayne West, Beyonce and more have been rocking the trend that looks like it is here for good. If the idea of being stylish and comfortable appeals to you, check out these tips that will help you navigate men's athleisure wear.

What is Athleisure?

You don't have to be totally plugged into the world of fashion to enjoy the comfort of athleisure wear. You probably already own a few pieces - it’s knowing how to pair them together that completes the look although many luxury brands are releasing their own hot styles.

The actual style combines sportswear clothing with ready-to-wear clothing pieces. For example, you may place together high-performance sports shirts with a tailored blazer or toss on chinos with sneakers. While you can't forgo the suit at a formal occasion such as work or a wedding, you can probably get away with replacing many casual/dressy outfits over the weekends with athleisure wear.

Casual Trousers

Jeans are a bit too every day for athleisure, and they don't really give you a relaxed feel anyhow since the denim can be rough. Replace your jeans with a casual trend that offers a luxury sporting look when paired with trainers and nylon outerwear. You can also grab a pair of jogger pants and then pair them with a bomber jacket to complete the same look.

Bomber Jackets

Speaking of bomber jackets, make sure to buy at least one because these are the mainstay of the athleisure wear trend. The bomber jacket is to athleisure what Converse is too emo kids. There are plenty of bomber jackets out there, so pick one that suits your personality. More traditional men may find a suede bomber jacket is more comfortable to wear out on a date, whereas those who lean towards athletic clothing can peruse bomber jackets made out of bonded jersey or neoprene.

Polo Shirts

Since their creation in the 1930's, there is literally nothing that polo shirts cannot be paired with. The simple truth is that polo shirts just look good, and the athleisure wear trend is not an exception. Outside of being a tennis uniform, polo shirts also look great when paired with jeans to keep it casual or with chinos while out for dinner. Toss a bomber jacket over to dress down, or pair with a tailored coat to dress up the look. This a great way to create an outfit that seamlessly transfers from day to evening.

Athleisure Bags

It's too bad that Friends is over because thanks to athleisure wear Joey could now finally wear his man bag with pride. Men that want to embrace the style fully will want to accessorize with a sports bag that is functional and stylish.

Duffle bags, sleek carryalls, fabric bag pouches, and leather finished satchels all look great tossed casually over a shoulder. To maximize the effect, consider a bag that is branded or features contrast zip pullers.

Confidence

Finally, regardless of how you decide to dress up or dress down athleisure wear, the look only works on confident men. If you want to tackle the new power look of men's fashion, you have to be ready to wear it without any doubt. A strong strut combined with a nonchalant sense of style is all it takes to make any combo look good.
