Ushering in the new year with a new look is usually a great way to kick things off. You can try out new styles and outfits that are outside of your comfort zone, like unisex clothing. Because of the expanding awareness of inclusive fashion, there’s almost an infinite number of fashion brands that cater to gender-neutral attire. People from all different walks of life may now wear genderless clothing without needing to fit into a box of what society considers masculine and feminine.
While there are international fashion powerhouses that make gender-neutral clothing, we encourage you to consider these local businesses that produce the same, if not better, unisex clothing. Many fashion labels in Malaysia are on their way to building a name for themselves on the market, and without our assistance, these businesses would not be able to prosper. Which is why #sapotlokal is the best way to express your love for all things fashion and Malaysian.
Here are our top picks for the best local brands that specialise in genderless clothing you need to shop to switch up your style and #sapotlokal.
Tarik Jeans
What began as a denim business for Malaysians by Malaysians has evolved into a full-fledged fashion business offering nostalgic pieces for the average Joe(han). Tarik Jeans’ one-of-a-kind outfits will take you back in time, owing to its vintage graphic motifs. The brand hopes to educate the younger generation about appreciating cultural variety and becoming more tolerant. Tarik Jeans will continue to seek out and collaborate with local artists and talents to help disseminate awareness via fashion for all Malaysians to embrace.
Asly
Oversized fashion has taken over the sartorial scene by storm, and Asly is riding the wind along with it. The brand’s name is derived from the word “Asli,” which means “authentic,” and it aims to inspire customers to be their most genuine selves. Asly’s signature style is simple, allowing graphic designs to speak for themselves. With the majority of their apparel being oversized, it’s safe to assume that Asly doesn’t forget about our big boys and girls, guaranteeing that everyone who is anyone can wear its clothing.

Rexagon does not believe in sacrificing comfort for style. This local firm is all about design and comfort, ensuring that its customers can wear its clothing all year round. Each piece from Rexagon is stunning, with designs thoroughly thought-out to produce incredible garments. Rexagon’s clothing is trendy and stylish, so you won’t have trouble making your selections. Also, it sells accessories such as caps, to complete your outfit.

All of its items, from tops to bottoms, have that “effortless” feel. They’re simple but still so chic for modern-day women and men.
