As we gear up for Independence Day and embrace the spirit of innovation, let's explore the latest developments in Israeli fashion and brands.

Z-Sport's Decade of Excellence

Z-Sport, the Israeli sports brand, knows that after the holidays and as summer approaches, everyone gets into fitness mode and launches a new collection. The brand, celebrating a decade, specializes in high-quality sportswear faithful to global trends in sports and activewear. This season continues with the best-selling model - high-waisted shaping leggings; two tops, one in a new cut; a strapless bodysuit; a short jumpsuit with a front zipper, and a sporty dress with inner leggings made of polyamide fabric.

Most of the collection is made from FOUR WAY STRETCH FABRIC identified with the company, a fabric developed for close to two years. What distinguishes it is special elasticity along the four main axes, providing more freedom of movement. In addition to the black color that has dominated the collection until now, colors like navy, olive, and stone have been added. Most models are available in sizes XXS-XXL. Are you in love?

Special Glasses

If you have a fetish for glasses, you must visit one of the Vintage Original concept stores that offer a variety of sunglasses and prescription glasses with iconic frames from the network. With the opening of the fourth branch recently in Ramat Hasharon, the VOptic advanced vision testing facility was also launched, developed in partnership with the international lens company Optimize.

Dana Gamchi and Ron Zehavian, owners and partners in the "Vintage Original" network: "The idea was born out of our desire to bring a quality and accessible product that would be timeless, suitable for every outfit and every season, but with its own language, in a style identified with us for years and inspired by it. The brand Vintage Original. Over time, we delved into the field and understood the need for sunglasses and prescription glasses at an affordable price with style, but not only that, we emphasized unique and trendy design."

Doron Gamchi, Dana's father: "Once we managed with one pair of glasses, but today, in the era of social networks, no one wants to look with the same pair of glasses, the network is a great option to buy several pairs at a low price."
