Crown Monarch Tracksuit Pants
Details
Our Crown Monarch Tracksuit Pants are an homage to the street style of the 1980s. The classic cut brings to mind boomboxes, beat boxing, and the Black cultural phenomenon that is Hip Hop. Made from Rox Sports Jersey fabric that has that classic tracksuit feel - smooth, robust, and breathable - our tracksuit pants are designed for comfort with an elastic waist and functional zipper details on the back of the ankle. The open pockets feature the design on the interior as well, ensuring that you are fully coordinated in these tracksuit pants. Designed for a slim, low-rise fit at the waistband that is super flattering and comfortable, pair the Crown Monarch Tracksuit Pants with our Crown Monarch Tracksuit Jacket, and Crown Monarch Mesh Knit Sneakers for a perfect combination.
Editors' Note
This piece is part of AphroChic's Crown Collection, which celebrates the beauty of Black hair culture through the image of the iconic Afro Pick. Combs of this type have been a part of African culture for centuries, with some of the oldest examples dating to ancient Egypt and Sudan. Called Ilarun or "hair parting combs" in Yoruba, these combs were traditionally decorated in numerous cultures to display the owner's economic status or group membership, along with various spiritual meanings. In the U.S. these combs, re-dubbed as "picks" became symbols of resistance and cultural liberation, frequently decorated with the Black Power fist. From bantu knots and locs to braids, weave and afro puffs, our hair is our crown. For thousands of years these combs have been the tools we use to shape it; and whatever the style, we wear it proudly.
