Take Flight

The Original Parkour Pants now come in four colors!

As our T-shirt selection has grown, many new colors have become available, but every Traceur knows their whole outfit has to match. So to keep up with your demands we have developed our newest addition; the Original Parkour Pants design now with bold purple and silver print. These pants go great with any of Take Flight’s shirts, but they are especially sharp when paired with one of our purple shirts.

These Original Parkour pants are a must have for any Traceur wishing to sport their dedication to Parkour. They come in all five sizes that our pants are offered in (small through 2XL) and the item description in the TF Store comes complete with a custom size chart so you can find the right one for you.

Reported by Traceurs to be “the most comfortable pants to train in,” they look great and feel even better, so pick up yours today and show your love for Parkour!

We are very pleased to announce the official release of our Take Flight Yoga Pants made specifically for women!

Our Take Flight Yoga Pants have been in the works for more than a few months. Now complete they are a slight deviation from the Parkour clothing we so strongly focus on, but we put forth the time and effort because we feel our athletic apparel focus warranted it. Here are a few glimpses into our thinking and reasoning:

#1. Up until now our line has been almost exclusively geared towards men, so we wanted to expand our line to provide more options for women. Designing and producing this item does just that.

#2. We are the world leader in Parkour clothing, but that doesn’t mean we only provide for Traceurs when they are training. Male and female Traceurs alike (and their friends) don’t only need clothes for when they are doing Parkour. The yoga pant provides another clothing option that is still authentically Take Flight.

#3. The Take Flight Yoga Pants are extremely comfortable and also versatile. They can be worn for a variety of occasions such as hanging with friends, going to the mall, and Parkour. Let’s face it, yoga pants are used more often during activities other than “yoga”.

We could not be more pleased with the final result of our efforts. Our Take Flight Yoga Pants are a 50% Cotton / 50% Polyester blend that is “extremely comfortable” (not our quote). They have a drawstring, they do NOT have pockets, and we stylized them by placing an attention grabbing pink “Take Flight” across the back side. Whether you feel like being comfy, getting attention, or doing Parkour or “yoga” these pants will serve the purpose and then some. They are on sale now at a special introductory price of only USD $26.

With our custom Parkour pants now available and our entire collection of custom Parkour shirts growing weekly, there has developed some pretty sweet shirt-pants combinations. There are two shirt-pants combinations that in particular really look dynamite together and we are dubbing these the Take Flight Parkour Combos.

The first Parkour combo utilizes the Royal Blue Original Parkour Tee and the Black Original Parkour Pants. The print of the pants and the royal blue shirt color are almost an exact match which brings out an eye catching and very pleasing consistency in the outfit. That in addition to the “Parkour” written vertically down both items brings this combination together beautifully and makes it perfect for training or casual wear.

The second Parkour combo utilizes the Cardinal Vault Man Tee and the Gray Original Parkour Pants. The cardinal tee with the black silhouette blends perfectly into the red and black leg print. This diversity in the shirt design and the pants design really brings this combo to a fashionable crescendo of style which can be sported whether you’re in the presence of Parkour friends, or just hanging out with people who have no idea what Parkour is.

Which Parkour combo of the two is best is up to you , but either way you can’t go wrong. They both look awesome and at a combined cost of only USD $44.90 and USD $49.90 respectively, there is no better method to genuinely sport Parkour clothing out there, and no better value for a Parkour shirt-pant combo on the market. What’s even better is that unlike typical fashion with matching outfits, all the shirts and pants in our line look great by themselves! So even if you only have one half of the combo, you’ll still be in the Parkour style and looking good wherever you go.

Take Flight sponsored Kinetic was on national television today on the NBC’s Today Show. The show was a little hectic, but in the time given team leader Jason Mello was given the chance to briefly talk about Parkour and introduce the discipline to mainstream America. Jason and Shem Rajoon were also given time to demonstrated some basic Parkour vaults, and Jason was sporting the Original Parkour Pants during the exhibition.

Great work Kinetic for your pioneering spirit and working to spread the discipline of Parkour!

Earlier today Take Flight sponsored team Kinetic appeared on Fox’s Good Day New York show to talk about their newly established Parkour classes. Founding members Jay and Shem were present for the feature and were shown instructing and performing. Both Jay and Shem were wearing the Original Parkour Pants manufactured and distributed exclusively by Take Flight, and the video of the feature is embedded below.

We couldn’t be prouder of Kinetic for their efforts to teach and spread the discipline of Parkour in their city and beyond. Congratulations Kinetic and good luck with your classes!

After months of thought and design we have finally released out light weight Parkour training pants. And just in time for Christmas too!

Called the Original Parkour Pants because of their design similarity to the Original Parkour Tee, these Parkour pants are a must have for any Traceur wishing to sport their dedication to Parkour. Custom made to be both light and durable, these pants are perfect for both winter and summer training and come complete with a draw string, pockets, and open style ankle bottoms. Offered in two different color schemes, the pants have the Take Flight logo embroidered on the left thigh and a prominent two color print made down the right leg. They come in five different men’s sizes (small through XXL) and the item description in our store comes complete with a custom size chart so you can find the right one for you.

We are elated to be able to bring these pants to the Parkour community and we hope you enjoy training in them as much as we do. The pants retail for USD $35.00 but we are selling them at promotional pricing during the holidays for only $29.95.
