Trefoil Essentials: Matching Sets From adidas

Our adidas matching sets are the ultimate in 3 stripes nostalgia, trefoil toggery & casual lounge wear that look just as good on the streets as they do on the sofa.

A biproduct of the global pandemic when the nation locked down & people decided to ditch their smart suits for sweatpants, matching sets have become a key sportswear trend over the last few years. If there was one brand who were going to do matching sets well it was always going to be adidas with a tracksuit heritage like nothing else. So what's the actual difference between a tracksuit and a matching set? Well if we're talking about matching sets from a sportswear perspective its more than likely sweatshirts, hoodies and sweatpants as oppose to the traditional track tops and track pants. The matching set is a contemporary spin on the classic tracksuit look with a focus more on comfort and modern sportswear style. Something that can be worn for comfort watching your favourite box set but that also looks just as good if you're heading out and about.

From its origins on the tracks, the dugouts & the streets, the German sportswear brand has certainly earned its stripes (in the case of adidas 3) in the ever changing world of sportswear. Before adidas released their trefoil branded Originals line back in the late 90s, the original trefoil stuff was only available from vintage sportswear stores & die hard collectors. The Originals line revived the retro trefoil logo with a focus on the classic styles & silhouettes adidas had built their reputation on since the 1950s. Obviously tracksuits have played a huge role in the Originals revival line, with adidas now setting the bar for matching sets in classic 3 stripes style.
