Sports and fashion go together hand in hand, with many people believing that the attention to detail required in both professions is what makes them so similar.
With that in mind it doesn’t seem all too surprising that many of the biggest names in sports have a fashionable side to them, and these are the best of the bunch.
Now this list was compiled by Sports Illustrated, and by comparison we shan’t pretend to possess as great of a knowledge in this department. However, we can appreciate a good suit here and there and as such we’re happy to run down the men and women who are just able to make it click when it comes to showing off their style in the public eye.

2.Ron Harper
Harper was the one who settled the boat when it began to rock too hard. He signed with the Bulls in '94 and was a part of the second three-peat. Before he retired, he followed his coach to LA and won two more titles with the Lakers. Harper spends most of his time watching his star-studded basketball playing son, Ron Jr., and donating money to the National Stuttering Association. (Image source/YouTube)

4.Steve Kerr
Kerr was the sharpshooter that made the Bulls that much better. Shoot (no pun intended), the Bulls even won a championship on his shot. After his playing days, Kerr was a TNT commentator, the Phoenix Suns general manager, and now the head coach of the Golden State Warriors. (Image source/YouTube)

8.Toni Kukoc
The Croatian born player was known for his versatility to play all positions on the floor. He was the perfect compliment to Jordan and Pippen and was a perfect piece in the triangle offense. Today, he resides in Highland Park, Illinois playing golf daily and serving as a Special Advisor to Jerry Reinsdorf, the owner of the Bulls. (Image source/YouTube)

11.Monica Seles: Stabbed
At the 1993 French Open, Monica Seles was stabbed by a deranged fan of her rival Steffi Graf. During her quarterfinal match, a fan hopped onto the quart and stabbed her between the shoulder blades. The puncture wasn’t deep, but the psychological wounds were: She didn’t return to competitive tennis for more than two years. (Source/Sportskeeda)
If you’re now looking back at this list wondering where it all went wrong in your life by comparison, then don’t worry – it’s entirely natural. At the end of the day these 11 individuals are in a world of their own, with their fashion presence only being matched by their phenomenal athletic ability.
Still, they probably can’t moan on the internet like we can right? It’s the little things.
