The debut 28-piece men’s activewear collection builds on the success of Pacsun’s Women's Active and PAC1980 activewear lines and features activewear with a “youthful, stylish edge,” including short sleeve and cut-off tees, run and flight shorts, colour-blocked vests, crewnecks, hoodies, pants, and joggers in a range of fabrications from brushed heavyweight fleece, stretch nylons and moisture wicking poly blends.
