Pickleball continues to gain traction as one of the country’s fastest-growing sports—and on April 4, it took center court at the MET Sports Center in Pasay City, with athletes and personalities Kianna Dy and Enchong Dee leading the charge. Both were suited up in the latest sport utility wear collection, blending movement, performance, and casual style as they played through a series of friendly matches.
The event wasn’t just a showcase—it was an opportunity to experience functionality in action. From serves and volleys to post-game chats, the clothing kept up with the demands of the court. Kianna, known for her dynamic presence on and off the court, shared, “As a pickleball rookie, I was so excited to put together an outfit for today’s activity. The best thing about sport utility wear is its versatility; you can wear it during workouts, for errands, or even for a get-together with friends.”
Enchong Dee brought the same energy, putting the collection through its paces with quick footwork and fast returns. Event attendees also joined in on the fun, getting a feel for the collection themselves in a few rounds of pickleball, allowing them to test out comfort, stretch, and breathability in real-time.
The sport utility wear lineup highlights four key features: UV protection, ultra stretch, moisture-wicking DRY-EX fabric, and smooth, breathable AIRism technology. With the heat rising, UV-blocking fabrics with UPF 50+ protection offered an added layer of defense—especially relevant for those often outdoors, whether playing sports or commuting around the city.
Meanwhile, the Ultra Stretch pieces allowed for ease of movement, and the DRY-EX and AIRism materials kept wearers feeling fresh even during intense activity.
While the day was centered around sport, the bigger takeaway was practicality. The collection’s features are designed to adapt—whether for a workout, a casual outing, or simply moving through the day with ease.
