The Upside
Jodhi Meares' premium activewear that transitions seamlessly from studio to street without missing a beat.
The Upside was founded in Sydney in 2014 by Jodhi Meares, the fashion icon behind Tigerlily, who wanted activewear that worked as hard as she did while looking equally at home at brunch. The result is a label that fuses fashion with function, creating pieces for movement and stillness in equal measure. Premium fabrics, thoughtful construction and a distinctly Australian sensibility set The Upside apart from generic gym wear. At Wally, our The Upside NZ collection extends well beyond the studio, with sweats, knitwear, jackets, polos, dresses, tops and bags that bridge activewear and everyday wardrobe. Shop The Upside in store at our Takapuna boutique or online with free delivery on orders over $120.
The Upside range at Wally

Away from pants, the Pascal Collared Crew and Saturn Arrow Sweater lead the sweats, and the Adesa Vilde Knit Tank has been the pick of the tops.
