Activewear Fashion Essentials for 2022

Activewear Fashion Essentials for 2022

After almost two years of lockdowns, home workouts, and low physical activity overall, it is finally time to pack your bags and go to the gym. However, many people need a little more motivation in order to start right away – and that’s okay! Make sure you give yourself time to prepare and make a list of your gym necessities. To make your life easier, here is a list of 2022 activewear must-haves. Remember, your new fashionable gym wear will at least be enough to give you the motivation to show it off to your fellow gym-goers.
Tights


Finding the perfect gym tights is not as easy as one would assume. Bear in mind that some fabrics might be see-through, which is a no-go since you want to avoid all the creepy stares. Make sure you find quality leggings that will give you the confidence to jump, squat, and run freely. When choosing your bottoms, double-check if the material is durable enough for all the heavy workouts. Moreover, it’s always a good idea to get the ones that are high-waisted, in order to additionally support your back.

Biker shorts

In the warmer seasons, biker shorts are the most popular type of activewear among women. They support your thighs, cover up everything you may be self-conscious about, and let your skin breathe in the hot summer days. Biker shorts are still a favorite piece both for 2021 and 2022 as they can be worn as a part of your casual day outfit too. What is more, these are an investment for many seasons to come, even if you are not in the mood for exercise.

Crop top bras


If you are among the lucky ones who have had the time to work on their abs, a crop top bra is the right piece of sportswear for you. This way, not only can you show off your perfect body but also let yourself break a sweat without being embarrassed about it. Moreover, you will save yourself some space in the gym bag since these things are compact and tiny.

Sports jacket

After a heavy workout, your body’s temperature rises and you break a sweat. It is important to always have a piece of clothing to throw over your shoulders when coming back from the gym, in order to avoid getting cold. The best thing is to get a sports jacket which you can use when going out for a jog or even to get groceries. This way, you have one piece of clothing in your wardrobe that you can use for multiple purposes.

Workout socks


Do you know how annoying it can be to try to accomplish a heavy workout while wearing the wrong pair of socks? Whether you’re in a hot or cold climate, when doing certain types of exercises, you need a strong pair of socks to support your feet and ankles. It’s no wonder professional athletes pay hundreds of dollars for a good pair. Furthermore, it’s important to find socks that are made of sweat-proof material, in order to keep your feet warm and dry.

Matching sets

If you’ve ever followed a YouTube workout, you saw that all the fitness influencers wear colorful sets of workout bras and leggings. This is your sign to get yourself a couple of sets since these will certainly be a 2022 fashion must-have. You can choose among an array of colors, and according to this season’s Instagram feeds, bright pink and baby blue are trending.

To sum up, the most important feature of your workout clothes is a strong, quality material, preferably made from skin-friendly fabrics. Remember to layer up in the cold months and to let your skin breathe while sweating. Hopefully, this list made it a little bit easier for you when it comes to preparing for a new workout season. Good luck with your workouts and don’t forget to have fun!
