Despite my usual and expected attentiveness to what I wear, I do have to confess that I almost arrive at the gym looking quite messy. Holey old T-shirts, tired leggings, and an outworn pair of running sneakers are my typical uniform. So, this New Year, I've decided that an athletic gear overhaul is necessary and will hopefully spark subsequent motivation.
Since activewear has become more of a lifestyle category courtesy of athleisure, the options have greatly expanded. Although I love a sporty lounge set (any activewear can double as one), I am looking for functional pieces that will support a high-intensity workout.
Below, I've compiled the pieces I have my eye on for my activewear refresh. Keep scrolling to shop the pieces that will have you eager to book your next workout.
