Rhone clothing is in a league of its own. Often times, when you want quality clothing, you have to fork over the big bucks. In this case, affordability and superior quality go hand in hand. Their focus is to tailor to the fit man while providing premium quality with high functioning stylish clothing. By doing so, the company uses innovative materials such as multi-stretch for extreme comfort and Silver Tech, a permanent antimicrobial and antibacterial agent that fights odor and sweat stains, forever (not just for 15 or so washes). Rhone has broken ground and is at the forefront of the future athleisure lifestyle.

2. Qor

The name, pronounced like “core”, is what the entire company stands for. Core values, such as strength, integrity and humility, and core referring to the body part, where all physical activity stems from. Their goal is to build the very best performance clothing for men of all ages and abilities. A pretty stand up company, they don’t just stop at making excellent clothing—they want the product to also inspire you to be more active and to reconsider how and when you are active. If you’re not sure what to wear, choose from their “Saturday Morning Kit,” “Post Gym Kit,” “Golf Kit” or “Spin Kit” for a seamless and effortless moment of dressing.
