Suits have always evolved and changed to reflect the historical period, fashions of the time and needs of the men who wear them. Over the past few years, we have witnessed a true revolution whereby the tailoring sphere has been infused with the kind of casual and sporty urban vibes that would have once raised a few eyebrows.
A key piece of the contemporary wardrobe, the jersey, whether short or long-sleeved, is replacing the classic shirt to be worn with elegant suits even in more formal environments. White, blue, black or in a bright hue, the jersey is no longer a style faux-pas and gives the formal suit a less stiff, more nonchalant and relaxed air that speaks to the wearer’s easy confidence. As such, it has become a stylish alternative for work meetings, job interviews or romantic dates.
The pursuit of comfort is one of the key factors in the buying process; a garment needs to be suited to the needs of the modern man and adapt to his fast-paced, always-on-the-go lifestyle. As part of this evolution, the suit is more and more frequently worn as separates, thus achieving a much more casual vibe while maintaining its trademark elegance.
The perfect finishing touch, a sleek office-friendly sneaker offers the right amount of comfort and ensures the end result steers clear of too much formality by complementing the effortlessness of the whole look. The modern menswear wardrobe features an increasing quantity of highly technical fabrics that reflect high standards in terms of quality, performance and comfort.
For Fall Winter 2020/2021, Reda Active has introduced a high-performance fabric that is ideal for crewneck and turtleneck jerseys to layer under a suit. Infused with a sporty urban vibe, Reda Active’s jersey fabric is the ultimate embodiment of casual elegance.
Reda Active’s lightweight jersey fabric feels natural on the skin and offers comfort and warmth thanks to the thermoregulating properties of the wool it is woven from. Just like every Reda Active fabric, it is crafted from pure Merino wool and is easy to look after and wash, making it perfect to take on every day in style.
