Escaping for a sports holiday this summer? No time like summer to focus on your fitness and sports goals.
Whether you’re spending sun-kissed days at a seaside country club practicing on clay, demonstrating your swings out on the green, hiking in the Swiss Alps, sailing on the Mediterranean, any modern fitness enthusiast would want to look stylish while being active.
Dressing for a sports holiday may seem like a breeze – just pack your go-to gym clothes, right? While this may be your best practical bet, there is nothing like a fresh wardrobe roster to energise your trip.
Where to start? We suggest to building a capsule of essentials such as polo shirts, chinos, and shorts. Design-led, high-performances pieces will add a dose of aesthetics to your activewear and ensure you play the part. Gear towards items that are more elevated than what you’d wear back home so you can easily look “put together” and fit any casual setting with very little effort. Look out for timeless silhouettes crafted in technical fabrications and practical details that will allow you to move confidently while maintaining sartorial prowess. Footwear is key so opt for pairs that marry comfort, form and function. Lastly, stick to a colour palette to keep things simple as this allows you to easily mix and match, which is important to consider when packing and suitcase space is limited.
Still lost and don’t know the pieces to buy? Don’t fret. Here, Emirates Man selects 18 stylish essentials for your active adventures:
