A few years back, sportswear used to be solely reserved for the gym. You’d sweat it out in your leggings and tank top and swap them out for something more “presentable” after you were done. But with the rise of athleisure and sporty chic fashion in particular, you can achieve that refined everyday look without sacrificing the active element.
Sporty chic clothes are an intersection of sportswear with edgier, off-the-street components that you can flaunt in most casual settings. And you don’t even need to be a gym rat to own this look! If you think this aesthetic is for you, here are some sporty chic outfits you need to try.
1. Look Effortlessly Cool in a Windbreaker & Biker Shorts
A windbreaker is a classic sports attire that hits all the right notes when paired with biker shorts. This is a lightweight, practical outfit that allows for a full range of motion and day-long comfort. The laid-back feel of this look makes it perfect for chasing the runner’s high at the crack of dawn and heading to an eatery for a high-protein breakfast afterward.
To add more visual interest, opt for contrasting colors such as a designer jacket in camel paired with soft shorts in black. Layer the windbreaker over a casual fitted tee, tank top, or sports bra. Complete this sporty chic outfit with crew socks, running shoes, and a belt bag.
2. Sporty Chic Style With The Raglan Top & Relaxed Pants
Sporty chic looks are effortless on their own, but there’s nothing more low-effort, high-impact than a fitted long-sleeve top paired with a pair of relaxed-fit pants. It’s a classy combination with versatile use.
A women’s casual top looks great with almost anything but when paired with relaxed-fit everyday pants, the vibe is modern, refreshing, and sporty. Whether you’re heading to the gym or meeting friends for a coffee, this sporty chic outfit will guarantee comfort and an effortlessly cool vibe. Complete the look with sneakers, a pair of sunglasses, and a chic tote bag.
3. Polished Sporty Vibes With a Matching Set
Matching sets are an absolute no-brainer no matter which aesthetic you’re going for. They’re elegant within minutes. No need to overthink. Just grab a pair of co-ords, and you’re all set with a sleek look that shines during a workout and your post-gym plans.
Reach for a track set if you’re planning to sweat it out or a matching set of a fleece designer sweater and pants if you need that sporty vibe with some warmth. And even if you’re planning an intense workout, you can still rock the fleece set by using it as a cover-up during cool-downs. Don’t forget to add sneakers to complete this sporty chic outfit.
4. A Sporty Bag for Your Essentials
The sporty chic style needs the perfect bag to match, whether you’re going for a sleek belt bag, spacious tote, or something in between. The Drift puffer quilted bag from Thirty Years is an excellent choice whether you’re heading to the gym, out for lunch, or running errands. It comes in two sizes, regular and mini, with multiple pockets and an optional crossbody strap for hands-free action. This cushy bag is also water-resistant so you never have to worry about spills!
Our Rove Shoulder Bag is another excellent option. It’s a drawstring-style bag that can be used as a handbag or worn over the shoulder. These bags serve both fashion and function and are essential for completing your sporty chic outfits.
