Serving as an unprecedented example of how innovation meets inspiration, the latest collection of activewear being launched by mnml is poised to transform the way you think about fashion. While performance wear is seldom created as simply functional fashion, when done properly, it can make profound statements about everything from your passion, excitement, and sense of adventure to your inspirations, hopes, and overall personality. Mnml Active emerges as not just a fashion line but a testament to power.
The collection is reminiscent of the 1965 epic science fiction novel by Frank Herbert—since turned into two films that have cultivated a legion of devoted fans and a unique culture of its own—DUNE. The collection offers a one-of-a-kind journey through an immensely serene albeit wretchedly unforgiving environment. Each piece that is part of the mnml Active line, whether it’s the versatile jogging sweatpants or technical headwear, speaks volumes to a distinct vision of the future, a future that holds the keys to understanding the fine line where fashion and functionality converge to bring about an unparalleled sense of resilience.
Carefully crafted with a deeply adventurous spirit in mind, mnml Active is an invitation to go out and explore the endless possibilities that await in the ever-elusive future, today. The new line is delicately crafted for those genuine innovators who never shy away from taking the lead, catering to their drive to navigate today’s world with an effortless blend of ease and style. Simply put, mnml Active is where the spirit of exploration meets the precision of design, setting a new standard for activewear—a standard that is as boundless as the untamed desert landscapes and vast open skies that inspired it.
This new collection has been impeccably curated to offer you coordinating pieces across three complementary colorways to provide ultimate, unmatched versatility. To accomplish their goals and meet the standards expected by mnml, only the most carefully chosen materials are used to form the mnml Active line. With Ripstop and Polyamide crinkle nylon construction, the line offers dynamic protection against the elements. These fabrics not only create unbeatable protection but are also able to do so without needing to sacrifice comfort or style.
For those who, perhaps, go above and beyond the average adventurer, breathable mesh panels are fused with practical, highly functional cargo pockets. To conquer this feat, mnml Active has employed only the most cutting-edge designs, ensuring the line accomplishes all it has set out to do sans any inconvenience. Additionally, for all those who demand exceptional flexibility in both their wardrobe and their workout, the mnml Active line features the Convertible Jogger.
Proving their devotion to excellence, the Convertible Jogger is crafted with a unique zipper design that allows wearers to transform from pants to shorts in a matter of seconds. This unique design ensures you’re ready for any challenge ahead at even a fleeting moment’s notice. Amidst the backdrop of the merciless desert, mnml Active prepares you for the harshest conditions and does so with such style and comfort that there’s simply no other competition for the innovative adventurer.
mnml’s Strategy and LA Inspiration
As Nick Bowersox, president of mnml, states, “The vision for mnml is very simple: provide the styles our community wants at a price they can actually afford.” The brand started on this mission with a core group that got its start in the LA streetwear scene over 10 years ago, and as it continues to grow, the company continues to add incredibly talented individuals who have spent their entire careers in LA. “We would not be where we are today without the vibrant fashion community that truly is unique to Los Angeles,” Bowersox notes.
Having worked out of the same studio in downtown LA since mnml started, the brand continues to draw inspiration from the community, other brands, and creatives that are constantly trying new things around us. As Bowersox concludes, “There’s no time to stand still in fashion, and in Los Angeles, you really feel that.”
