Activewear label Outdoor Voices has just recently acquired a new team member. The brand just named Millard "Mickey" Drexler as chairman of its board of directors.

This news was announced right after a 9 million dollar convertible funding round that was led by Drexler, according to Business of Fashion. As Drexler just recently left J. Crew as chief executive officer, he joins Outdoor Voices as an experience fashion veteran. His new role puts him in an executive role for the company, where he will also retain a 10 percent stake.

"Mickey is an expert at building teams and a fantastic leader," Tyler Haney, founder of Outdoor Voices told Business of Fashion. "Having him on Team OV gives us an incredible resource of knowledge and experience when it comes to building the next great activewear brand."

The recreational activewear brand has been established since 2012. The lifestyle label offers clothing ranging from leggings, sports bras, bodysuits, pants, tops, and more. With Drexler stepping into his new role, the company continues to move forward in retailing innovative, technical activewear.
