This volume presents a collection of essays that explore the
relationship between sporting clothing and gender. Drawing on
uniform and sports apparel as a means of exploring the socio-sexual
politics of the contemporary world, the contributions analyse the
historical, political-economic, socio-cultural and sport-specific
dimensions of gendered clothing in sport. Part of a two-volume
series (the other discussing this phenomenon in the USA),
contributors cover topics such as the rise of athleisurewear,
Olympics outfits, eSports, religious considerations, the saree,
fitness attire on Instagram, Japanese bloomers, youth clothing,
ForPlay's sexy sports costumes, and women's sportswear for rugby,
tennis, throwing, biking, wrestling, and flat track roller derby.
This global anthology will be of interest to practitioners and
scholars of sports history, the sociology of sport, and
gender/media studies.
