From McLaren Automotive Press Release
Premium sportswear company Castore is launching its latest collection inspired by the form, function and colours behind McLaren Automotive’s range of ground-breaking supercars.
Engineered with both performance and enhancement of movement in mind, the collection marks the third time McLaren and Castore have collaborated. The latest McLaren Castore collection is the ultimate addition for everyday and training wardrobes this spring.
Influenced directly by the design of McLaren’s supercars, the technical collection showcases both Castore and McLaren’s obsession with combining advanced engineering together with lightweight, technical materials. For Castore, fabrics are carefully selected to enhance athletes’ performance - a philosophy McLaren practices throughout the development of its supercars to ensure the lightest-weight provides drivers with the greatest performance and agility.
Engineered for optimum performance, the curated collection consists of trackpants and shorts alongside hoodies and t-shirts.
Hero products from the range include the Techlux shell gilet – a lightweight quilted gilet perfect for everyday wear crafted using lightweight and water-resistant fabric and with high-stretch side panels for ease of movement. The gilet also features zoned quilting to provide the wearer with additional warmth.
Alongside is the hero Techlux quarter zip, a lightweight performance piece perfect for all intensities of exercise or to be worn as an everyday mid-layer. Engineered using Castore’s breathable and moisture-wicking fabric, the quarter zip’s ergonomic collar optimises comfort around the neck and shoulders and showcases the collection as a seamless combination between high-performance sportswear and everyday apparel.
“Following the success of our previous collaborations with Castore, we are proud to unveil our latest collaboration. Inspired by McLaren’s supercars, Castore’s use of advanced engineering and lightweight, technical fabrics allows them to create class-leading pieces. This embodies McLaren’s form follows function ethos and we share Castore’s relentless passion to bring that brand essence to discerning athletes.”
Gareth Dunsmore, Chief Marketing Officer, McLaren Automotive
“Through our long-standing collaboration with McLaren Automotive, Castore has rapidly established itself in the world of luxury automotive. Our philosophy is perfectly aligned to that of McLaren’s which rests heavily on innovation, leading-edge design and innovative use of lightweight materials that combine for agility and performance.
“McLaren is synonymous with pioneering supercar design and innovation, and we share an ambition for peak-performance. In this our third capsule collection, we’ve channelled the sensual experience of driving a McLaren and combined it with Castore’s unique, world-class designs, resulting in a range that looks as good as its performance.”
Tom Beahon, co-founder, Castore
