Have you ever dreamed of being in the Olympics? Not necessarily for the physical aspect but more so because of the high-performance uniforms athletes wear while competing? Well, same. And now, thanks to Telfar, our dreams of being in the Olympics are now a reality — err — well, at least when it comes to dressing like one with the brand’s new Telfar Performance line.
Today, Telfar is launching activewear, which was first designed for the Liberian Olympics team, for fans to buy to bring out their inner athlete. When team Liberia first appeared at the Opening Ceremony of the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo in the uniforms designed by the Brooklyn-based, Liberian-American designer, it sparked joy and national pride for Clemens. The collection doubles as his first foray into athleisure and also pays tribute to his African heritage through its unique silhouettes.
His signature tote bag (or “Bushwick Birkin” if you will) has become one of the most buzzed-about bags on the market (even Beyoncé gave it a shout-out in her new song “Summer Renaissance,”) and his Telfar Performance line is set to sell out fast too.
The collection features 14 styles consisting of leggings, compression tops, and its standout statement half tank. Whether going to Pilates, a cycling class, or whatever being active means to you, each piece is made of a sleek stretch nylon for a skin-tight fit and maximum mobility. Staying true to Telfar’s ethos of a genderless and inclusive line, all of the garments will be available in sizes from XS to XXL.
The collection is now live on telfar.com, but if you want to save your energy for your athletic activities to come, we conveniently put together an edit of our favorite piece from the Telfar Performance collection below.
