@deborabrosaHiking can work up a sweat depending on which trail you take, so in cases of unpredictability, I always like to reach for an exercise set. While super-sleek leggings have their place, I prefer more breathable materials with moisture-wicking properties.
I love layered shorts as an anti-chafing preventative.
Girlfriend Collective is just that girl (pun intended) when it comes to workout sets.
This material will feel lighter against the skin.
Don't sleep on Free People's activewear collection—it's so good.
These bottoms fall on the trendy side, so they're practical for activities outside of your hiking sessions.

@endlesslyloveclubIt's pretty self-evident why proper sneakers are a must before embarking on a trail. Choosing the right pair can make or break the experience.
These are equipped with complex construction to make journeying through the paths a breeze.
These were specifically constructed for explosive movements, so you know they won't fail you.
Not only are Salomon sneakers super trendy for their looks right now, but they're also some of the best technical sneakers on the market.

@discodaydreamSince nighttime hikes are a thing in L.A. and the city is almost like a desert, a warmer option is necessary. Here's where a cool sweatsuit enters the picture. It'll also seamlessly carry you to the after-hike breakfast or brunch.
Nike is always a solid option.
I'll definitely be wearing this while running errands too.
Emily Oberg's athleisure line just always gets it right when it comes to aesthetics.
Shorts are a great option for 70-degree days.
For the ultimate in moisture wicking, I love this cool set.

@idabroenDressing in sets certainly saves some time, but I also like to rely on a collection of sporty staples to elevate or add function to an outfit. From jackets to sports bras, these are great pieces to build your athletic wardrobe.
Because no one likes to feel like a puddle of sweat.
One and done is the way to go. Plus, the contrasting seams are so cool.
I love a shacket like this to layer over my workout sets for a trendy take.
Not only is this simple sun protection, but it's also a lightweight solution to deal with any unexpected elements.
If I have plans immediately after, I usually throw on nice-looking joggers like these.
The clothing is just one part of dressing up for a successful hike—things like sunglasses, hats, hip bags, and more are equally crucial. Below are a few of my favorites.
Yeah, it's a little fancy, but you can look cute while hiking, right?
For an easier trail, I'll grab a less technical (but more stylish) pair like these. DL Eyewear has some of the best sunglasses right now.
