"Smarter. Tougher. Faster.”

An exhibition hosted at Design Exchange, Canada’s design museum explores the evolution of sportswear and uncovers how technology, fashion, nature, and culture have contributed to the rapid innovative growth of athletic clothing, equipment, and wearables. Maharishi upcycled pieces feature in the section dedicated to garments inspired by nature and sit alongside swimsuits covered in patterns which are designed either as a camouflage specifically attuned to the visual spectrum of a shark or a “Dazzle” type pattern which disorientates the shark’s perception of where the wearer is and which direction they are swimming in.

"What I'm anticipating with this decision is that we will have a move in this country to recognize the right of individuals from different religious backgrounds to live in an America that does not discriminate against them on the basis of how they appear..."

Why Are Only Three Observant Sikh Men Serving In The U.S. Military? The Pentagon's ban on facial hair and religious headgear has long been an obstacle for Sikh men, who wear turbans and don't cut their hair. Sikhs are hoping a court ruling might lead to a rule change.

We love sharing non military camouflage developments, as the symbolic value of camouflage continues to drift further towards nature, art and design, and further away from the military, who hijacked it 100 years ago. Huge sportswear brands usage may not always be pretty, but does help the cause! When a shoe named "mahlama" comes out, it definitely tweaks our interest.

“First of all I prefer thought. This is the basic thing. I really think manual skill is secondary. . . . It’s taking things from reality. Everything, however small and humble, always has a beginning and stems from reality.”
