Jordan Clarkson is widely regarded as one of the most fashionable athletes out there, and he recently proved this once again by showing off his impeccable sense of style at New York Fashion Week. One of his standout outfits was a Tommy Hilfiger rugby jumper with bold stripes that he wore while standing next to the renowned designer himself. He also sported a Canadian tuxedo from Balenciaga by Demna, along with a striking crucifix pendant made by up-and-coming jeweler Alex Moss. To the Harper’s Bazaar Global Icons Portfolio and Bloomingdale’s 150th Anniversary party, he opted for a sleeveless gray tweed suit jacket and skirt from Thom Browne.
It’s not surprising to see celebrities like Clarkson donning the latest designs from top designers. However, fans might be surprised to know that he has recently joined forces with Lululemon in their latest ad campaign. The “Your Move” campaign features Clarkson sporting a range of Lululemon products, from neon yellow Pace Breaker shorts to relaxed tan trench coats. Despite his previous collaboration with Ye’s Yeezy SHDZ campaign, Clarkson believes in Lululemon’s potential to take its next step. In fact, he thinks Lululemon is taking their brand to new heights, whether it be trends or workouts. His favorite piece from the shoot is the Parkway Insulated Coat, describing it as his “favorite piece ever.”
As one of the NBA’s most stylish players, Clarkson’s endorsement could significantly boost Lululemon’s brand image. However, he humbly acknowledges that everyone has their own style, but still believes he’s the best dressed. With his 10th NBA season coming up, Clarkson is fully committed to winning with whichever team he plays with, despite trade speculation.
In terms of his relationship with Lululemon, Clarkson sees them as an ideal business associate for his current venture. He has faith in their groundbreaking and improving concept, as they elevate the status of their brand in every relevant area. While he’s prominently featured in Lululemon’s advertising and window displays, there haven’t been any talks about joint clothing releases just yet.
It’s possible that I have a unique approach to fashion, just like I do with clothing and style in general. However, it’s too early to say for sure. The advertisement focuses on the importance of mental well-being, which is often overlooked in professional sports where physical fitness takes center stage. Personally, I have found that taking care of my mental health has had a positive impact on both my personal and professional life. Despite the demands of the season, I make time for myself by meditating and focusing on my breathing. When traveling, I take advantage of the peace and quiet of hotel rooms to tune out the world and stay centered.
As for fashion, attending New York Fashion Week has been an incredible experience. I particularly enjoyed the Givenchy collection and Tommy’s show. Even though the rain interrupted the latter, watching Travis Barker perform was still fantastic. It’s exciting to see NBA players embrace high fashion and carve out new opportunities for themselves.
Regarding the Thom Browne outfit I wore, I’m a fan of all his designs and have a great relationship with the team. I found the pieces at the Paris show, and although they won’t be released until summer, I knew it was a natural fit for me. I’ve always had an imaginative approach to fashion, even if it means cutting up expensive suits to create something unique.
My time in Cleveland during the Finals will always be unforgettable. I was exhausted and realized we were actually in San Francisco, which made me feel even more uncomfortable with the heat. I had to hem my jeans so I could wear them to the game. We all wanted to look good and coordinated, so we sent each other outfit photos and comments via a group text and had a great time doing it. When people compared my recent Thom Browne suit to Russell Westbrook’s Met Gala dress, I saw some similarities in our taste, but individual tastes vary among designers. My huge crucifix necklace was made by Alex Moss, who also designs jewelry for Tyler, the Creator and Drake. As for my tattoos, it’s something I’ve always been interested in and I finally found the right artist to work with. It’s a way for me to tell my story and everything related to it. My friendship with my tattoo artist, Steve Wiebe, developed naturally and he’s like a sibling to me. Regarding my style, I’ve always been one of the best-dressed players in the league, but since coming to Utah the conversation has really picked up steam. My sense of style is unique to me and I enjoy expressing myself through fashion.
In my personal opinion, clothing should fit well and feel nice. Fashion is not only about the designs, but also about how the wearers carry themselves. For instance, if Kim Kardashian were to wear a Marilyn Monroe outfit, credit would be given to her for rocking the look rather than to the designer. Therefore, I believe that fashion is a creative expression of one’s personal style. As for me, I simply choose what I like and what looks good on me without overthinking it. My room may look chaotic with clothes everywhere during fashion week, but that’s just my process.
Although I’m focused on my games and performance on the court, I can’t help but notice the attention my tunnel photos have been receiving. However, I don’t let it affect me as I try to stay focused on the task at hand. My main motivation is love, and I don’t give much thought to anything that could negatively impact my mind or body.
When it comes to offseason acquisitions, my most prized possession at the moment is my Lululemon trench coat. It’s surprisingly lightweight despite its bulky appearance, and I could definitely see myself wearing it daily.
As for who has the best wardrobe among NBA players, everyone has their own unique style. While players like Frank Jackson and Kuz have their own waves to ride, I believe that I am the best dressed. It’s funny that Kuz and I were just discussing this with Frank Jackson being mentioned.
What a silly concept! I’m a huge admirer of Frank Jackson, and in my view, he is the most genuine person out there. Isn’t that just amazing? This season, many teams are bringing back classic uniforms and tactics on the court. The Jazz have decided to honor their history by wearing purple mountain era jerseys. Are you excited to see them play in those uniforms?
I don’t see why not. It’s bound to be iconic. Everything appears to be coming full circle these days. We’re witnessing a revival of the ’90s culture, with loose clothing becoming the new norm. In my opinion, it’s just the way things are. People will always recall when the Jazz wore their mountain clothing and made it into the playoffs to face Jordan. I heard that the San Antonio Spurs got their hands on a strange artifact a couple of years ago. They brought back the fiesta jerseys, and now that you guys are reintroducing all these classics, it’s absolutely fantastic. It’s a unique experience to see individuals wearing these jerseys on the field as a child, and now that you’ve made it to the big leagues, you can officially wear them. It’s completely different, and I believe it’s totally awesome.
As a supporter of the Sixers, I’m still holding out hope that the team will bring back the Iverson throwback uniforms.
If they ever do make a comeback, though, it will be out of this world. Pairing black and red together is simply stunning. Those jerseys are breathtaking, and they shouldn’t be cut down to size. They should be massive, man. Kobe changed the length of his shorts because of the Lakers’ Showtime uniforms, and now they can’t avoid wearing extremely baggy shorts. Do the impossible.
The Utah Jazz has undergone significant changes in the basketball season, with Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert no longer part of the team. When asked about his thoughts on the upcoming season, the player admitted that he was uncertain and ready for anything. Being a veteran in the league, he is willing to go in whichever direction the team decides. Winning and taking the team to the next level is his ultimate goal, regardless of the jersey he wears. He aims to field a competitive squad and make it to the postseason. The player acknowledged that trades and roster changes are common in the NBA, as seen in his former Lakers teammates who have moved on to other franchises. He wonders what could have happened if they had stayed together and had more time to mature as a couple. Despite the challenges, the player remains optimistic and committed to finding a solution for the team’s success.
I believe it was inevitable for us to fail when we were all together. We were all skilled players in our own right, but we needed a change of scenery and went our separate ways. It’s funny to look back now at the tweets and online chatter about us. The Lakers did an excellent job evaluating us and providing us with opportunities, but having all of us on the same team wouldn’t have resulted in a championship. However, they did bring LeBron to the team, which was a great move. We all shone in our own ways and needed to develop differently.
Representing the Philippines national team is a huge honor for me. The love and encouragement I receive from the country is always present, and every opportunity to play for them is a highlight of my life. If we’re lucky, we can win a few games in the World Cup and qualify for the Olympics, which is my ultimate goal for the team and the country.
