Walks around the ‘hood have taken on new meaning in 2020. We break up our days with a saunter to a jog around the neighbouring streets to get those legs moving and knock over our daily step count. And cosy, multifunctional clothing has become our uniform while doing so.
We asked THE ICONIC’s Sustainability team which pieces we can choose to wear to feel good while we get our hearts pumping.
P.E. NATION’s Lay Up Hoodie and Drop Shot track pants are tagged under THE ICONIC’s Considered edit because they’re both made using organic cotton, a more sustainable choice than conventional alternatives as it uses less water and harmful chemicals to grow.
In its Clean Classics collection, adidas has released its signature styles in recycled alternatives, from their timeless Superstars to the iconic Stan Smiths. According to adidas Originals, “these adidas Supercourt Shoes step toward a clean future. Crafted to reduce material waste ... This shoe alone might not help save the planet, but what you do in them could.”
Patagonia is known for its concern for our environment and has many products tagged under THE ICONIC’s Considered edit due to their use of more sustainable materials and charitable donation. These shorts are our new everyday favourites – made using recycled polyester, they are ideal for running as – just quietly – they have built-in Capilene® boxer-briefs treated with Polygiene® odour control.
