Athletic Moda

-Some of my essentials while running or working out

Fashion can be found in more places than the runway. Fashion can be found on a court, track, field, etc.  Evidence of this was at the Olympics.

 One example was Erik Kynard's USA themed tube socks. 

 

After reading an article about Kynard, I learned that he is a fashionisto at heart and has a big shoe collection.

The William sisters have also been known to express their love of fashion through the tennis dresses and outfits they wear to matches. 

Some athletes like to switch up their uniforms or add something interesting to them because wearing the basic uniform can become boring. The design of athletic wear not only has to be eye catching but also serve a good purpose while playing a sport. Some important qualities these items need to have are wickability, durability, and to be light weight. At the end of the day these fashionable athletes want nice looking athletic wear, but pieces that are not a distraction but a second skin.
