The Latest Adidas By Stella McCartney Collection Is Ready For Anything

“Having grown up in the Scottish and English countryside, wet weather has always been part of my time in nature,” says Stella McCartney of the inspiration behind her RAIN.RDY collection for adidas. “Inspired by this, I worked with adidas to create the perfect rain wardrobe for our community of athletes and adventurers, incorporating recycled materials and cutting-edge-performance technologies,” says McCartney. The resulting collection delivers both sleek style and technical expertise.

Since 2005, the British fashion house and German athletic-apparel brand have collaborated on seasonal sportswear collections for women that fuse high fashion with high performance, designed to power workouts across disciplines from running and tennis to swimming and yoga. RAIN.RDY is the final drop from the FW24 collection, and, in McCartney’s own words, this capsule was developed to enable wearers to “fully embrace Mother Earth and her elements,” ensuring rain never stops play.

Each collection fuses function with design precision, always underpinned by Stella McCartney’s longstanding pledge to conscious creation. The brand has commited to working with more mindful materials, minimizing waste and innovating to reduce its impact on the plant. This new RAIN.RDY capsule follows the same ethos – crafted from recycled waterproof and performance fabrics, each piece is created to be ready for adverse conditions, powering your training, whatever the weather.

The FW24 collection arrives in an elegant Glory Gray color palette, in a series of workout-ready silhouettes, including the star piece, the ‘TrueNature’ RAIN.RDY recycled-shell hooded jacket – a high-performance outerwear design that features a detachable hood, adjustable waist and taped seams for rain protection. Cleverly, the design also features a built-in web pocket and buckle, so you can quickly pack away the jacket on the go, and is crafted from 100% recycled materials.

Cutting-edge technology is central to these collaborative collections – designs are always at the forefront of performance sportswear. Alongside the jacket is a series of stretch recycled-jersey styles and versatile separates designed for a range of active pursuits. Design finesse and attention to detail define every piece – see the ‘TruePurpose’ sports bra with a racer back, mesh panels and ventilation perforations designed to keep you cool as you work out.

No sportswear collection is complete without performance leggings, and the ‘TruePurpose’ pair in this capsule are both elegant and ready for action. Designed for fit and movement, they offer similar ventilation to the sports bra via laser-cut holes and mesh panels. Clever HEAT.RDY technology, meanwhile, keeps you cool and dry for even your most intense workouts. Layer the ‘TruePurpose’ long-sleeved top for cooler days, or to warm up, post-sweat session – the style is made from the same recycled jersey as the sports bra and leggings. This fall/winter, embrace the great outdoors, whatever the weather…
