“We Finally Ditch The Term “Athleisure””

I never even heard of it before that sentence.

Me either.

I thought they were just sloppy.

Who knew they were doing it deliberately.

-—I never even heard of it before that sentence.——

Actually, it was included in the header.

Elizabeth Segran likely coined the term herself in an even more obscure article last year but since it never caught on decided to end it.

I deem the entire article cocktail party shop talk.

The awkward portmanteau refers to athletic clothing that can be worn during leisure activities (i.e., everyday life)

So basically, athleisure is like wearing your basketball shorts around the house. Like guys have been doing since shorts were invented. It's just a new term to make girls want to buy new stuff.
