While summers in the United States are different across states, Phoenix, Arizona is usually the hottest whereas Seattle, Washington is usually the coolest—some things are constant. One of these things is the summer trend of heading out to the gym, or to the plains, or to a nearby park—for the love of sports.

Whatever the task, the apparel for the day is a given: you’re looking for something that’s comfy but also trendy, something that’s chic but not too thick

Nothing brings all of these elements together as well as athleisure. And since we’re speaking of athleisure, we’ve got some great summer trends to cover!

For the Ladies

To begin with, here are the trends we’ve seen and know to be the greatest for summers this year for the ladies:

Two in One with a Tee

Tees are truly twofold: they’re great for almost any sport that springs to your mind (excluding sumo wrestling, that is), while giving off the completely casual look. In other words, when you’re rocking a tee, you’re ready for any sport and look super comfy while going about your day.

Go Neon

Since most sportswear tends to be more laidback (blacks and whites and shades of grey); you can add a refreshing splash of color to your outfit by throwing in neon footwear. It’s a simple trick, but it works wonders!   

Leggings for Life

Leggings are the most casual you can get while still looking amazing with your toned legs showing in all their shapeliness.

For the Men

Before there can be a ruckus about ladies getting the first pick in this age of equality, here’s how men can nail the athleisure trend this summer:

Keeping it Simple

For men, the accessorizing is typically kept low (unless you’re jousting, in which case you need a full armor, but then it’s an archaic sport). The colors are often solid and among the darker tones—such as black and grey and white—but they look absolutely stunning on sportsmen.

Add Tone to Your Tees

If you’re one to add flair to the fare, you can look for tees that have patterns or stripes, or even a customized logo. Not everyone likes a single, solid color, and athleisure compensates for that.

To Cap it All

If you aren’t opinionated against rappers, you’ll probably need something to pull over your head to protect yourself from the sun—and caps have been doing this for years.
