Athloun, a super-premium performance lifestyle apparel brand, today announced that India’s leading cricket commentator and sports figure, Charu Sharma, has joined as Strategic Advisor & Mentor — Sports Culture & Collaborations, reinforcing the brand’s vision to build a mindful sportswear culture through purposeful partnerships.
Athloun crafts sustainable performance lifestyle apparel through plant-based innovation, minimal design, and lifestyle versatility — essentials that move seamlessly through work, play, travel,

Charu Sharma will lend his deep expertise in sports and brand strategy to amplify Athloun’s voice across sustainability, performance, and lifestyle culture — shaping high-trust partnerships and community-driven pathways.

These early inputs are now informing Athloun’s updated size framework, reflecting the brand’s commitment to precision, comfort, and mindful design.
Charu Sharma said, “Athloun’s commitment to high-quality, conscious, and performance-driven apparel for the modern man is what drew me to the brand.
