    “We live and breathe sport at adidas, it is part of our DNA, so encouraging a fit and healthy lifestyle comes naturally to us. As the sensation of International Yoga Day spread across the world, we were equally energised to hear about Prime Minister Modi’s initiative.
     
    “In the spirit of what is set to be an iconic day, we created this custom-made gear to showcase our support and appreciation. We are confident that International Yoga Day will see increasing participation in the years to come and hope that this day multiplies into months, years and eventually a lifestyle for citizens in India and around the world,” Thomas said in a statement.
