When it comes to men's athleisure, I always struggled to find a good brand. For someone who likes lounging in comfy clothes as much as I like playing sports and going to the gym, it was always hard for me to find a brand that could tick every box.
I’ve tried the big, well-known brands like Lululemon. Sure, they look cool but I’m always disappointed with the quality for the price you pay. Plus the cheaper brands just aren’t up to par at all. I thought I’d never find a brand that I’d keep going back to until I found Vuori.
At first when my pal recommended Vuori I doubted it would be worth trying since I hadn’t heard of them before, but they insisted so I ordered one pair of the Ponto Performance Pant and haven’t looked back since.
To really understand how versatile this brand is, here is my typical week in Vuori:
MONDAY
Monday is a work-from-home, take-it-easy day. I wear my Ponto Performance Pants, which are the comfiest sweatpants I’ve ever owned. They’re super light and stretchy yet soft, thanks to Vuori’s DreamKnit™ fabric. I pair them with my black Tuvalu Tee, which is crafted with cotton and natural SeaCell fiber (seaweed and sustainable wood pulp) for comfort to start the week out right.
TUESDAY
On Tuesdays, I like to be productive. What can I wear that is suitable for many different settings? The Ripstop Climber Pant. They’re contemporary slim-fitting pants with a gusset for a wide range of motion and a zip detail for added style. These pants take me from running errands to a coffee date.
I paired it with the Ponto Performance Crew for the perfect smart-casual fit. This crewneck is just as versatile. It’s stylish, but perfect for layering in cold weather while also being quick-drying for my gym workouts. It’s got a small zip pocket which is ideal for holding my keys or a card when I’m on the go.
WEDNESDAY
Hump day is here! The perfect time to get on my Kore Shorts and shoot some hoops. They’re super comfortable, falling just above the knee with a breathable, boxer-brief liner. I wear the Strato Tech Tee for moisture-wicking with UPF 30+. It’s possibly the softest performance T-shirt I’ve ever owned!
After dinner, I enjoy an evening walk in my Outdoor Trainer Shell jacket and Ponto Performance Pants. The jacket is lightweight and great for layering. The performance material is moisture-wicking, it has multiple zip pockets and a reflective logo to cover you in the dark.
THURSDAY
It’s almost the weekend - time to sharpen up. I wear my Meta Pants to the office with my Ponto Performance Crew. These Meta Pants are smart with a classic 5-pocket silhouette but built for adventure and movement, so they’re comfortable to wear all day long - I wear them to work and for date night in a nice restaurant.
FRIDAY
TGIF! It’s finally Friday and I’m celebrating in my Optimist Pants. Vuori has reinvented corduroy for performance and comfort. They’re super soft, with a side seam and back welt pockets. These pants are another smart-casual piece that brings both style and comfort - the best way to enter the weekend! I go straight from the office to the bar to watch the game with my buddies.
SATURDAY
I’m back in the park, this time wearing the Banks Shorts. The great thing about these shorts is that they’re comfortable, breathable, and they have a small zip pocket for my essentials. The material of these shorts is quick-drying so they’re fit for going to the beach too. They’re designed in Vuori’s VCycled™ fabric and are made from four to five recycled plastic bottles which is super cool.
SUNDAY
I go to the gym in the AM wearing my Kore Shorts, then I’m back in my comfy Ponto Performance Pants and close off the week with a chill night in. Takeout and a movie before resetting for next week.
So there you have it. Vuori’s athleisure wear can take me from chilling at home, to playing sports, to the gym, to the office, to date night, and more. Their products are the best quality I’ve ever worn, and prices range from just $44-$112 which is amazing value. I never thought I’d be so loyal to any clothing brand the way I’ve been with Vuori, but they really offer products that are stylish and versatile for all occasions.
