Duck Apparel has never been about dressing for one version of life. It’s all about movement — the kind that happens between Pilates classes and coffee runs, school drop-offs and spontaneous plans, long travel days and even longer to-do lists. With the launch of Duck’s new Lightweight Motion Jacket and two striking new Soft-Motion Legging colours, the brand continues to blur the line between performance wear and everyday style.
Designed to feel like a natural extension of the body, Duck Apparel’s new Lightweight Motion Jacket delivers on comfort without sacrificing poshness. Crafted from the brand’s premium Luxe Comfort Fabric, itis ultra-lightweight, breathable and smooth to the touch — the kind of piece you forget you’re wearing, but reach for constantly.
What sets it apart is its ability to move seamlessly through different moments of the day. The four-way stretch allows for unrestricted movement, while moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties keep things fresh whether you’re mid-workout or mid-errand. Contoured seams create a flattering, sculpted silhouette that feels supportive rather than restrictive. It is sleek enough for studio sessions, and refined enough for life outside of those four walls.
Thoughtful design details elevate the jacket into true lifestyle territory: a full-zip front, discreet zipped pockets, a high collar for lightweight warmth, and thumb holes to keep sleeves comfortably in place. It’s the kind of layer that works just as well thrown over leggings for a morning walk as it does under a puffer or raincoat on cooler days. Speaking of which, have you heard of their Reversible Classic Parka?
True to Duck Apparel’s ethos, the Motion Jacket isn’t about extreme performance — it’s about real movement. It’s made for Pilates, barre and yoga, but equally for gym workouts, Hyrox sessions, travel days and those in-between moments when comfort matters just as much as style.
Durable, abrasion-resistant and designed to retain its shape wash after wash, the jacket proves that everyday pieces don’t have to compromise on quality. Add in fade- and pilling-resistant fabric, and it’s clear this is a long-term wardrobe player rather than a seasonal fling.
Alongside the lightweight motion jacket launch, Duck Apparel is refreshing its Soft-Motion leggings lineup with two new shades that feel both bold and beautiful. Chilli Red brings a confident pop of colour — energising without being overpowering. Huntress offers a deeper, earthier tone that anchors effortlessly into a neutral wardrobe that has you prowling like the feline we all are.
Both colours tap into the same Soft-Motion DNA fans already love: buttery-soft fabric, second-skin fit and reliable shape retention. They’re designed to mix seamlessly with existing Duck staples, making it easy to build outfits that transition from movement to moments beyond the mat.
We have all heard of hot girl walks, where you and your bestie meet up with coffee (or wine) and stroll around for some much-needed gossip sessions, “menty-b” wellness visits, or to get those 10,000 steps in for Vitality.
Somewhere between morning motivation and main-character energy, our hot girl walks have become sacred. They mostly happen close to home — looping around the estate as the sun slips lower, sunglasses on the tips of our noses, playlists queued, and confidence switched firmly on.
On those days, we’re dressed head to toe in Duck Apparel — from our Milan cat-eye sunnies and lightweight motion jackets to our woven and puffer tote bags and leggings. The Lightweight Motion Jacket moves effortlessly with us, lightweight enough for no excess baggage, breathable enough for long walks, and polished enough to look intentional rather than incidental. Paired with Duck’s buttery-soft leggings in mood-boosting shades like Chilli Red or grounded Cocoa Butter, the look feels sporty, styled and completely unforced. The Puffer Tote Bag is the perfect companion, safely housing your sweat towel, extra jumper, water bottle, purse, and more.
Whether it’s a neighbourhood lap or a full-on trek, Duck turns every hot girl walk into a fashion moment and dresses you the way life actually moves — proving once again that when comfort meets confidence, style follows naturally.
