Hi, I’m Micah Webb, and athleisure isn’t just a style—it’s an integral part of my life. Growing up in the vibrant city of Auckland, New Zealand, sports and athleisure went hand-in-hand in shaping who I am today. From a family deeply rooted in various athletic pursuits, it was only natural for me to find my identity amongst sneakers, breathable fabrics, and the flexibility they offer.
My journey with sports began at an early age. I couldn’t have asked for a better environment, really. My mother excelled at basketball and baseball, while my father was a high school champion in cross-country and rugby. Growing up, I watched my older brother play rugby and cricket, and cheered on my younger sister at her netball games and dance recitals. Myself? I reveled in playing cricket and football, captained my school’s gymnastics team, and even coached the school’s martial arts team. The camaraderie and thrill of these activities made sportswear more than just clothing—it was a lifestyle.
Choosing athleisure as my go-to style began in high school. The ease of movement it offered was essential during long summers, and let’s not forget how cool and collected it kept me under the sun. Whether it was cycling casually with friends or gearing up for a travel adventure, athleisure was—and still is—my trusty sidekick.
In my adult life, my passion for martial arts and the gym continued, but my activities expanded to include cycling, hiking, and adventure travel. Each of these pursuits made me realize the importance of the right sportswear for different situations, especially while traveling through hot and humid regions like South Korea, Thailand, and the Philippines. Their breathable materials were a lifesaver, allowing me to focus on the experience rather than discomfort.
Through Althleisure Your Way, I aspire to share this journey with you, helping build a wardrobe that empowers you, no matter the challenge. It’s about finding confidence in your attire while staying practical and stylish as you meet new people and explore new horizons.
