Australian designer activewear label P.E Nation is set to launch its debut menswear collection this month.
With technical fabrications and innovative designs, the United in Sport collection combines fit, form and function.
Sweat-wicking, breathable, water and wind resistant designs sit alongside the thermal temperature control elements of merino wool, as part of a partnership with The Woolmark Company.
Taking inspiration from vintage sportswear and oversized silhouettes, the brand’s signature colour blocking is complimented by premium constructions, functional designs and performance fabrics.
P.E Nation Co-founder and creative director Pip Edwards said the expansion into menswear was a natural progression of the brand’s existing offering.
“We didn’t intend for P.E Nation to only be for women. It’s a brand with roots anchored in menswear. The desire to deliver to men what we deliver to women – effortless, comfortable, functional, everyday wear- this has always been our vision."
P.E Nation has already launched its first menswear collection exclusively with Matchesfashion.com which will be followed by the launch on www.pe-nation.com on Feb 15, 2018.
Fellow P.E Nation co-founder and creative director Claire Tregoning said the brand was extremely proud of its partnership with Matchesfashion.com.
“Launching menswear with Matchesfashion.com is a massive dream come true! As a luxury fashion destination for the confident global customer, it perfectly aligns with our brand ethos.
"Matchesfashion.com delivers on the kind of service we hope that we provide as a brand. It’s premium. It’s cool.
"It’s perfectly curated. It’s innovative and it’s personalised. We’re so thrilled to be part of the Matches family and set that bar for our menswear,”
