The lines between gym wear and casual wear have been blurred. Seemingly everyday, big name companies are putting more resources into “athleisure” and their sportswear development. And as our lives continue to include daily trips to the gym, our need for crossover activewear that performs well in action and looks good on the go surges. That’s why Paul Dickey, founder of Spuds Apparel, is on a mission to create the perfect pair of activewear shorts.
The California based startup set out to create a pair of workout shorts that could stand up to the demands of high intensity training, look good during all parts of your day, and provide features to add ease to your life. The result was their flagship shorts, which feature Friiz material to keep you cool and dry with added anti-odor and waterproof coatings, the Gravi pocket system to keep your phone safely secured at your hip and out of the way, and four-way stretch to move with you. To top it off, the shorts are manufactured in San Francisco and are currently available on Kickstarter at a discounted rate.
