“Basketball shorts can be the most low-key but head-turning look of the summer,” says Simona Finelli, founder and creative director of the high-fashion activewear brand No Ka’Oi. The shorts look, which Finelli describes as “streetwear luxury,” is both versatile and cool. "They're supremely comfortable pieces to wear 24 hours a day.”
This is a sporty-chic look that goes beyond the gym.
Candice Fragis, buying and merchandising director of the retailer Farfetch, says sporty shorts recently showed up on high-fashion runways—in the form of biking shorts. “Saint Laurent showed them in a classic '80s-style: black lace under puffball skirts. But it was really Off-White that elevated the athleisure aspect by showing a classic lycra cycle short under a tailored jacket.”
