Commenting on the expansion into activewear, Naomi Parry, head of marketing at Crew Clothing, said in a statement: 'Entering the sportswear space feels like a natural progression for Crew. Born out of a Salcombe windsurfing shop, we launched our very first collection with rugby shirts designed by a GB skier – sport is in our DNA.
'In the last decade we've built on our sporting legacy through our sponsorship partnerships with Henley Royal Regatta, the LTA and the England Red Roses rugby team, and Crew Sport is the next step in our journey. We know our customers live active, varied lifestyles, and we think this new collection will be the ideal addition to their wardrobe.'

Key styles include 'Seam-Free' flattering crop tops and leggings crafted from nylon elastane fabric and jacquard panels, alongside pieces in buttery-soft fabric designed to offer ease of movement while remaining breathable with sweat-wicking features, and 'Bi-Stretch' styles with ergonomic seams that follow the body's natural contours and have UPF50+ protection.
The range also includes a dedicated running jacket, gilet and shorts with lightweight woven fabric and reflective detailing, as well as a technical capsule featuring full and half-zip track tops made from breathable, sweat-wicking fabric with four-way stretch for performance and recovery.

Jo Miller, head of design at Crew Clothing, added: 'Designed to transcend age, gender and fitness level, our new athleticwear collection blends our timeless heritage with cutting-edge details. Fabrics have been crafted with performance in mind – from compact nylon elastane styles, which will hold you in for optimal movement to super soft, drapey pieces that are ideal for your next yoga session.
'We've become known for our signature touches over the years, and you'll find that here too. Whether it's the unrestrictive storm flap on our running gilet or the thumb holes on our track top, we've thought through all the little details. Look out for our iconic crossed oars – we've reimagined these in a high visibility reflective print and included this throughout the collection.'
Prices for 'Crew Sport' range from 25 to 65 pounds. The collection will be available through its website and its 41 stores from June 17.

Lockerbie lawyer urges those impacted by Air India disaster to seek legal advice
A lawyer, who was secretary of the Lockerbie air disaster group, advising families affected by the bombing, has urged those impacted by the Air India disaster to seek legal advice before entering 'agreements'. The Air India flight AI 171 was heading towards Gatwick from Ahmedabad Airport, officially Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport, when it crashed minutes after take-off on Thursday. The aircraft had 244 people on board, from India, Britain, Portugal and Canada, Air India said. It added that there were 53 British nationals on the flight, one of whom is believed to have survived. The aircraft was due to land at Gatwick Airport at 6.25pm on Thursday. Air India's chairman, Natarajan Chandrasekaran, described the incident as a 'tragic accident' and a 'devastating event' and said emergency response teams are at the site. It is the first crash ever of a Boeing 787 aircraft, according to the Aviation Safety Network database. STV News 270 people were killed in the Lockerbie attack. Solicitor advocate, professor Peter Watson, represented the British victims who died after Pan Am Flight 103, which was travelling from London to New York, exploded over Lockerbie in Dumfries and Galloway. The attack killed all 259 on board and 11 residents on the ground in the Scottish town. He has urged families who have lost loved ones in the Air India crash to not agree anything with airlines or insurers before seeking legal advice. A statement read: 'Today's incident will end up a complex case involving both the manufacturers of the aircraft Boeing and Air India. Almost certainly any claims arising will be dealt with in the United States and it's important those involved get specialist advice. 'The Boeing 787 Dreamliner has a history of quality-related problems involving battery fires, manufacturing quality control issues, cockpit and autopilot concerns, and all of this will be investigated by air accident specialists to determine where the fault lies, including investigating any possibility of pilot error.'

British man survives Gatwick-bound Ahmedabad plane crash
The Air India flight, which was carrying more than 240 people from the city of Ahmedabad – including 53 British nationals, collided with a medical college on Thursday. The Hindustan Times said 40-year-old British man Vishwash Kumar Ramesh survived the crash, telling the newspaper: 'Thirty seconds after take-off, there was a loud noise and then the plane crashed. It all happened so quickly.' A video of the crash circulating online showed the aircraft flying over a residential area before disappearing behind trees, followed by a huge explosion and large plumes of black smoke. The public should be prepared for a significant loss of British lives, Downing Street said. Images of the aftermath of the crash showed parts of the plane embedded into BJ Medical College as firefighters continued to tackle the smoke. Pieces of the aircraft's landing gear, fuselage and tail could all be seen protruding from the building. Officials said the flight was departing from Ahmedabad Airport with 242 people on board the Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft. Air India said on board the Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft were 169 Indian nationals, 53 British nationals, one Canadian national and seven Portuguese nationals.

Divyansh Singh, vice president of the Federation of All India Medical Association, told AP at least five medical students had been killed and around 50 were injured after the plane collided with the college. Campbell Wilson, the chief executive of Air India, expressed his 'deep sorrow' after the incident, adding: 'This is a difficult day for all of us at Air India and our efforts now are focused entirely on the needs of our passengers, crew members, their families and loved ones.'

The King said he was 'desperately shocked' by the incident and Buckingham Palace said he was being kept updated on the developing situation. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said the crash was 'devastating', while his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi said it was 'heartbreaking beyond words'. Asked if people should prepare for a significant loss of life, a Downing Street spokesman told reporters: 'Yes. 'As the PM said this morning, the scenes emerging of the London-bound plane carrying many British nationals crashing in the Indian city at Ahmedabad are devastating.

The Reuters news agency reported 217 adults and 11 children were on board the flight (Ajit Solanki/AP) The airline has gained a poor reputation for delays and cancellations in recent years, partly caused by a lack of funds to purchase spare aircraft parts, which led to some of its fleet being grounded. The first flight of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft involved in the crash was in December 2013. The plane was delivered to Air India during the following month. The FCDO said any British nationals requiring consular assistance, or who have concerns about family or friends, should call 020 7008 5000.
