Hamilton will be elevated in lululemon’s upcoming global campaign, “No Holding Back.” The campaign highlights the dedication it takes to be a champion through the rigours of daily physical and mental training, highlighting lululemon’s latest men’s training apparel, including the brand’s beloved Metal Vent Tech franchise.

Don't miss: lululemon and Park Seo Jun discover the importance of wellbeing in latest film
Back in November 2024, lululemon partnered with Korean actor Park Seo Jun to take everyone on his personal journey to discovering the importance of wellbeing. Titled “Stories of Growth”, the short film aims to inspire people to embrace wellbeing. Within the film, Park shares how taking a holistic view of physical, mental and social wellbeing has helped him manage the pressures he faces both on and off screen.
“In any case, living is always about the present. If I don’t live well in the present and don’t manage the present well, it’s difficult to meet the future I dream of. Moreover, we don’t know what kind of future is awaiting us, so I always try to be faithful to today, to spend each day well,” Park said in the film.
