Getting motivation to go to the gym can be difficult. However, looking stylish doesn’t have to be. From typical athleisure brands such as Nike and Adidas to new emerging brands such as ALO, you’ll be able to be fit and fashionable.
Nike Pro Leggings have gained popularity in the past few years. They are becoming a classic option for the gym. The webbing in the material whisks away sweat and moisture. So whether you’re either running a few miles on the treadmill or getting a few lunges in, these leggings provide great benefits.
Another brand making a comeback this year is Adidas. After their athletic line peaked in 2018, they are releasing new pieces. These pieces feature their iconic stripe logo with a variety of neutral colors. This is a great option for those who like the classics and want to relive that era of fashion. This line consists of sports bras, fitted leggings, tank tops, sweatshirts and so much more.
During the spike of COVID-19, OnCloud Nova Running Shoes boosted in sales. These shoes offered great support and cushioning for serious runners. According to Best Daily Trainer, these shoes ranked number one for best trainer shoes in 2025. This year, they released new athleisure wear in addition to their popular shoes. This line is associated with celebrities such as the Hadid’s and the Jenner family. In addition to moisture-wicking sports bras, leggings, and sweatshirts, they also offer a court sports dress. This is a perfect line for those who want to look classy and elegant while exercising.
In addition to certain brands, you can also have a certain aesthetic to match the vibe of your workout. For example, “ballet core” is regaining popularity after surging in 2022. Ballet core is essentially combining ballet style with modern athleisure wear. An example of this is Gym Shark’s athletic line in 2023 featuring cami tanks, ruched training bras, and bodysuits. If you want to embrace your inner ballerina, I suggest you take a look at this line.
With throwback pieces and new athleisure lines, you won’t miss an opportunity to take your style up a notch in the gym.
