BRITISH heritage brand Burberry has recently launched its Activewear, a new lifestyle collection rooted in the house’s heritage of outdoor and sports clothing.
Made for movement, the collection is crafted from soft, lightweight materials that feature breathable details for effortless, all-day comfort. Each piece is trimmed with the Burberry Check and finished with a reflective Burberry Knight, screen-printed with a gradient effect, as if in motion.

Founder Thomas Burberry’s deep-rooted passion for outdoor pursuits and sports, combined with an understanding of what clothing was required, made him well placed to design for customers with an active lifestyle. Landmark innovations such as the creation of Burberry’s signature cotton gabardine were informed by Thomas’s interest in the outdoors, responding to the need for garments that were lightweight, breathable and allowed for ease of movement – a legacy that lives on today.
