Comment: There were a few improvements since the last decline, but there where even more areas where it's actually worse. "Early athleisure pioneer" I didn't see any sources that claim Number Lab was a "pioneer", it's a pretty grand claim to make. Btw, I moved the page from it's original name for much the same reasons.

Number Lab
Number Lab was an early athleisure fashion brand,[1] having been recognized for its contribution to the category by being chosen as a finalist for the Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation[2] award and in the International Woolmark Prize competition[3][4] (in the menswear category). In 2012, Number Lab was selected to sit on the Council of Fashion Designer's of America (CFDA) fashion program in 2012 alongside CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund winner Johnathan Simikhai, Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation Award Winner Timo Weiland and Project Runway's Daniel Vosovic.[5][6][7]

The brand's designs were featured on athletes and celebrities including Neil Patrick Harris,[23] Josh Duhamel,[24] Evan Longoria,[25] Harrison Ford,[9] Chris Pine[26] and Matt Bohmer.[27] In 2012, Annie Leibowitz photographed Number Lab designs on actor Jonathan Groff for a two-page feature in the July issue of Vanity Fair.[28]
Number Lab hosted presentations and runway shows during Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week[22][29] which were held at venues in New York City including Milk Studios[22][30] and The Standard Hotel.[31][32] Number Lab also collaborated with corporate partners Gillette,[33][34][35] W Hotels[36] and M·A·C Cosmetics to co-finance its runway shows.[33] In 2011, Number Lab was invited to show at Aspen Fashion Week[37][38] and in 2012, E!
