UK based ALIGN present their inaugural collection this Winter, reworking sportswear classics into street ready staples.
Athletic styles from both in and around the field of play have always been a huge part of the streetwear aesthetic. ALIGN have approached this collection with consideration to heritage field sports staples such as varsity jackets and rugby shirts, translating these into contemporary pieces that can be worn in everyday life. With the Winter in mind, ALIGN have applied premium materials such as sports mesh, heavyweight loopback jersey, leather and taslan Nylon, for warmth and durability, with hints of 3M reflective material to help you stay visible.
The collection makes use of black across all garments, with splashes of white in the stitching and pocket detailing, as well as the occasional colour block. There is little use of graphics throughout the release, with most of the attention focused around fit and form. All in all its a great initial collection and I’m looking forward to seeing how the brand progresses.
The ALIGN Winter 2014 collection will be arriving shortly at selected size? stores and online at www.size.co.uk
