What Women Want –
Key Style Trends to Watch in 2012
True North Marketing
13
TREND #1: WANTED: Just a little bit of style
14
“I want more style! I am taking back the girl in sports clothes I buy.” Almine, trail runner, rock climber, mountaineer. “Style is very important to how I buy. I am very much influenced by how a store or catalogue will display an entire outfit.” Shelley, hiker, fly fisher, camper. “I don’t want a grandma shoe. I want a shoe with real style.” Peggy, trail runner, paddler, backcountry skier. And 63
TREND #2: Looser Tops that Drape
15
“It always seems like I have to size up in tops, which no woman likes to do. I know I don’t have the traditional skinny-runner-with-no-boobs physique. You don’t have to reinforce it with all those tight, tiny tops.”
Jenny, 50 mile a week trail runner.
TREND #3: Radical running apparel silhouettes
16
“I just did my first trail run in a skirt and will never wear shorts again. I imagine that is how it feels to be a guy running without a shirt on!”
“My favorite summer running outfits is a Nuu Muu dress with Moving Comfort compression shorts and bra underneath. After wearing running skirts and dresses, I don’t know if I’ll go back to traditional running outfits again, at least in the summer.”
Connie, trail runner.
TREND #4: Insulating and warmth providing apparel – even in summer.
“My single biggest frustration with cycling is splashing in puddles on the roadway and getting cold.” – Hannelore, bicycle enthusiast and hiker. “I just want to be warm. If I am cold, I am not having fun.” Shelley, hiker, fly fisher, camper. “I aspire to own one of those down sweaters that look so warm but without the Michelin-man-look.” Sarah, hiker, camper, skier, snowshoer. 17
TREND #5: Creative use of accessories, especially wool socks
18
“When it is cold, I prefer to use wool socks instead of running tights or pants. It gives me a little ventilation and I can choose my socks to reflect my mood that day,”
Jenny, trail runner.
TREND #6: Versatile Bike Apparel
19
“I am bummed that Levi’s only did the commuter jeans for men.”
Robin, bicycle commuter and yogi.
TREND #7: A brand’s footwear and apparel go hand-in-hand
20
“I always look at running apparel when I go into the store. Even if I am there to buy shoes. I usually look at apparel first. If a brand has only shoes and no apparel, I probably am not as aware of their brand as I am with someone who has a lot of apparel.” – Connie, trail runner.
