This white running singlet is part of our new Shinjuku collection. It is made from recycled polyester and the fabric we have developed is OEKO-TEX class 1 certified. For this new collection we have used our highly appreciated performance fabrics from existing collections as a starting point and made a new and improved fabric. The result is a textured moisture-wicking fabric with improved durability. The fabric used for this white running singlet is made of polyester made from recycled materials with excellent moisture-wicking properties. Together with the lightweight textured knitting this makes for a comfortable and breathable fabric perfectly suited for tough workouts in both cold and warm temperatures. For a complete look, pair this singlet together with our Shinjuku Shorts Navy.

Tokyo, Japan. A city over 30 million people call home. With one foot firmly in the city’s rich past and with one foot constantly creating global trends, Tokyo has developed a unique aesthetic in fashion and style. This aesthetic has been the leading inspiration as we’ve developed the Shinjuku Singlet, this running singlet, named after one of Tokyo’s busiest and most urban districts.

Walking the streets of Shinjuku, Tokyo one is struck by the bright lights and bold colors. Beyond the Tokyo cityscape, Japanese fashion is also characterized by its use of bold and contrasting color patterns. Inspired by the Japanese affinity for highly textured fabrics and rich color palettes, our new Shinjuku collection stands out for its innovative, textured and durable performance fabrics together with its exciting color combinations.

Why Tokyo? Why would a Swedish performance wear brand draw inspiration specifically from Japan one might wonder? Japan isn’t only at the global forefront in style and fashion, it also has an enviable running culture and might very well be the most marathon-obsessed country in the world. Japan hosts a number of major marathon events fronted by the Tokyo Marathon, which enjoys the status of being one of the six World Marathon Majors. Not only do Japanese runners participate en masse, they are an accomplished group of runners, too. Last year, no less than 53 male and female runners achieved the Olympic standard (compare that number to the equivalent number of the much larger United States: 23).
