Fashion and WOMEN Sport...Do they mix? @WOMENSSPORTDLY
The world of sports is closely related to the fashion industry. How? Through clothing . . .
You would not believe how huge the sports clothing industry is. Top brands, such as Adidas, Reebok, Columbia, Nike, Puma and many others, spend millions of dollars a year in designing the best outfits for every different sport. The curious thing is they not only design these clothes considering how they should adapt to each sport, but they also take into consideration fashion and beauty standards. Of course, the priority is still functionality, but certainly, this is not the only thing they focus on; the effort to manufacture fashionable sport outfits is an essential issue as well.
Sports women all over the world buy their outfits depending on how these fit and look and on their colours and patterns, and they will buy plenty of everything just to combine them in different ways while doing whichever sport they love. You must be able to move freely in the clothing that you are wearing. If it restrains your movement, it´s not the outfit you need for your activities. Stretching fabrics are usually the best ones to wear, for they can conform better to the body, and maintain comfort while you are in motion. These considerations are fundamental for optimizing your performance.
When buying your sportswear, evaluate your freedom of movement and how comfortable you feel so you can avoid muscle fatigue and select wisely the fabric to reduce friction and to assure protection, that way you will minimize the risk of injury. It’s fundamental to understand these facts so that you can take care of your body and improve on your performance.
