STYLING TIP: Here’s a tip: when it comes to styling, sometimes it’s all about matching the bottom half and letting the top add contrast. 💚🤍 Rocking green trousers with matching green and white trainers to keep the lower half seamless, then switching it up with a black tee on top for that bold contrast.

👟"What happens to your old running shoes when you get a new (to you) pair?"👟 Truly understanding rituals, routines and habits from your customers perspective happens when you come to terms with the fact that your brand isn't the centre of their life (shocking, I know) and we start to ask questions that examine the messier, weirder, less acquisition-focused, more human aspects of our lives. We used the question above to get a deeper understanding into footwear choices, sustainability behaviours and any emotional rituals, routines and habits that come when new and old collide. Old shoes get put to pasture in lots of ways, and the stories about where they go is a rich mix of the places, hobbies, needs and feelings. And those old shoe stories move us towards the expectations for the new shoes, and a refreshed, human understanding for growing brand that wanted to spend time on the flip side with their customers. We recognize brave marketing when we see it. Those brave marketing moves come from brave research moves that prioritize real knowledge and exploration over testing and recall✌ P.S. Here's my new runners meeting my old runners - they are getting along great so far. Old runners are now living peacefully in the garden, and the new runners are hitting the city streets! P.S.S. This was an unexpected and last minute consideration switch. I was 100% certain I was going home with a new pair of adidas Gazelles. I had honestly forgotten all about my old Reeboks, but man...when that nostalgia hits 👵🏻 🥹 #customerinsights #qualitativeresearch #marketingresearch #sustainability

When shopping for track pants online, look for comfort, fit, and material quality. Brands like Nike, Adidas, and Under Armour often offer great options. Check for moisture-wicking fabrics and elastic waistbands for added comfort. Popular styles include joggers and tapered fits, which can be both stylish and functional. Look for sales or discounts on sites like Ravi shopping market , or the brand’s official stores to get the best deals. Reading customer reviews can also help you gauge sizing and quality. Don’t forget to check the return policy in case they don’t fit as expected! Happy shopping. #fashion #bestshoppingmarket #bestmarket #onlineshopping #viralpost #ravishoppingmarket #trackpants #bigsale #clothing https://lnkd.in/gpjCWdws

A steep, uphill climb. Victoria’s Secret & Co. relaunch of their once ubiquitous activewear line VSX, as triumphant an announcement as it may seem, is one that will most likely have an uphill climb ahead. For a starter, the activewear market and category have moved on significantly over the years while VS was grappling with their own existential crisis: 1️⃣  First and foremost, formidable brands have entered the arena, think Vuori or Alo Yoga, just to mention some of the fiercest players out there. Their product offerings, the experience they offer to consumers and their community building efforts are nothing short of exceptional. Swaying customers away from best-in-class experiences promises to be the toughest climb for the lingerie behemoth 2️⃣ On top of that, the overall market has been showing signs of slowdown if not contraction, after the boom of the pandemic and immediate post-pandemic years, with customers now gravitating more towards ‘casualwear’ categories, such as pants and skirts, vs the sporty leggings look of past years Activewear is still a very attractive market, one where we will continue to see new and 'new-ish' players, like VSX, pop up. However, as other markets if not more, it is one where only the fittest thrive.

Retro Vibes are Back... But at What Cost? I am noticing the return of all things retro.   From clothes to photography, it's like we're stepping back in time. But there's one area where this nostalgic trend is hitting particularly hard: the sneaker world. The demand for Retro sneakers has skyrocketed, but it's also come with a hefty price tag. The thing is, the sneaker resale market is booming, and it's turning what used to be simple shoes into prized collector's items. Limited releases and the insane resale value have created a frenzy. People are no longer buying sneakers just to wear them. Owning a pair of retro sneakers now means owning a piece of history, a tangible slice of nostalgia that many sneakerheads covet. I'm guilty of indulging in this trend myself. There's something incredibly appealing about wearing a piece of history on your feet. But this trend has pushed prices waaaay beyond the original tag, making these once-affordable items into luxury goods that many can't afford. Brands are releasing limited editions, knowing that the scarcity will drive up demand. It's a brilliant marketing strategy, but it's also creating an environment where only those with deep pockets can keep up. So, where does this leave us? For those who can afford it, this is exciting. For those who can't, it's a bittersweet reality. We just want to enjoy our favorite retro styles without breaking the bank. #sneakers #cost
