It’s a relief when spring brings warmth, lively colors, and more extended sunlight. When you’ve survived another long winter, springtime can kickstart that extra motivation to stay active.
Now that you have that skip in your step, all you need to keep the added enthusiasm going is a full comfort workout wardrobe with a fresh look and outdoor workout functionality.
Choosing the Best Workout Clothes for Spring 2022
Floral prints and fun colors are just the beginning. Remember these essential features when picking out this year’s bright workout essentials, and make sure your top choices have everything you need for your spring workout regimen.
Airflow and Temperature Control
The air outside is getting warmer by the week. You’ll increasingly need garments with airflow. Look for breathable fabrics and mesh panels to keep you cool during workouts.
Wicking
Rising temperatures mean more sweat. So prioritize fabrics that pull moisture away from your body and dry out fast.
Environment Protection
It’s the perfect time to hit parks and trails. But don’t get caught in the great outdoors among bugs and critters, rocks, thorns, rain, and elements without protective gear and layers. This time of year, it’s wise to find clothes with light coverage and UV protection.
Style
No matter what clothes you need, you can always find items that reflect your personality and form a cohesive wardrobe you can mix and match.
