Nili Lotan Teamed Up with Champion,
and We’re Obsessed
Champion is America’s undeniable sportswear sweetheart. It’s also at least partly responsible for bringing ’90s retro into the conversation. And perhaps the only thing more alluring, in our eyes, than the quintessential street-smart sweats are the übersleek, citified reinterpretations that goop shop OG Nili Lotan—queen of minimalist chic—got her hands on.
“
“To me, this collaboration is all about athletic meets luxury. How to wear athletic clothes beyond the workout, how to integrate versatile, flexible pieces into one’s wardrobe.”
—Nili Lotan
”
Fleecy-soft pullovers, varsity track shorts, and logoed sets upgraded in Lotan-approved Italian fabrics: The Champion x Nili Lotan collection is exactly what you want everyday dressing to look like in a postpandemic world. But extra sophisticated. More grown-up.
THE GOOP TAKE:
City Sleeker
You’re in good company with the classics. Start with the gabardine trench you’ve held on to for years, shrug it on over a coordinating set, pile on the ear sheen, and go.
Just Add: A certifiably sleek, holds-your-whole-life-bag.

“These pieces are perfect for a workout, running errands, lounging on the weekends, or travel. One can dress them up or down.”
—Lotan

THE GOOP TAKE:
Bike Shorts, All Grown-Up
Making a performance piece work outside the studio or, you know, the home gym boils down to one thing: balance. Keep the body-skimming shape in equilibrium by playing with big, oversize layers (e.g., a track jacket with a pocket-happy parka when the weather commands) up top.
Just Add: Crisp high-tops and—yes—socks.
THE GOOP TAKE:
Leveled-Up Lounge
Gold jewelry is the two-minute shortcut for taking an all-white jogger suit from casual to purposeful, directional, even elevated.
Just Add: A streamlined base layer and grocery-run-friendly Birks.
