The 30-piece H&M x P.E Nation collection shares everything from leggings and bike shorts to athletic socks, as well as a few fashion t-shirts, skirts and accessories in a "classic athleisure" style. The Australian brand is known for its pieces that fuse everyday fashion and athletic attire and design-driven like pleated skirts, cotton sports tank tops and cotton sweatshirts help to do just that. The collaboration balances a mix of bright colors with neutrals, making it easy for H&M customers to assemble stylish looks with the new athleisure pieces.
For P.E Nation, it was important to work with a retailer that's making environmentally conscious decisions and H&M is employing artificial intelligence to its supply chain to reduce excess stock.
