Why Gen Z Demands Fashion + Function in Activewear | The RYZ® Revolution

For Gen Z women in India, activewear is everyday wear—an expression of identity that must deliver functional fashion: performance, comfort, and premium style in one. RYZ® answers this with its Softretch® collection—designed to move from gym to street without missing a beat.

Gen Z demands multifunctional activewear—pieces that breathe during workouts and look elevated at coffee runs. They value premium activewear that lasts longer, feels softer, and supports movement all day. That’s the RYZ® promise: feel good, look good, last long.
