The athleisure trend doesn’t look like it’s going away anytime soon, and if you haven’t tried it already the colder months are the perfect time to invest in a few pieces to add some comfort into your winter wardrobe. Here we round up some of our favorite new-season athleisure pieces that can be worn either to, from, or in the gym, or just for warmth and coziness on your off-duty rest days. 

 

Outdoor Voices Slight Sweatpant

 

Outdoor Voices’ range of pants are known to be one of the ultimate athleisure pieces. The Slight Sweatpant, as the name might imply, is suitable for working up a little bit of a sweat — think dog walking, a light jog, yoga, and warm-ups — but don’t feel guilty if you’d rather just hang out wearing them on weekends, the super soft Champ fabric and relaxed fit is perfect for that too.

 

Sweaty Betty Zero Gravity 7/8 Run Leggings

 

Sweaty Betty’s newest Zero Gravity legging collection has been specially designed for running and other high intensity workouts with supportive technical fabric and compression.

However, for casual off days the simple black design is also perfect with a chunky jumper and sneakers, with a bum-sculpting design that will enhance your shape even when not working out.

 

adidas by Stella McCartney Jersey and Stretch-Scuba Sweatshirt

 

Stella McCartney’s collections for adidas have always fused fitness and fashion, making them a popular choice for athleisure fans.

The new Jersey and Stretch-Scuba Sweatshirt combines breathable soft jersey fabric with a modern stretch scuba back in a relaxed fit, meaning you can wear it for warm-ups and cool downs, or just on rest days for comfort.

Athletic Propulsion Labs Women’s TechLoom Pro Cashmere

 

Possibly the ultimate off-duty sneaker, the TechLoom Pro Cashmere sneaker from Athletic Propulsion labs is the world’s first sneaker made from a luxurious cashmere blend knit.

Suitable for everyday wear rather than sport, the soft touch cashmere fabric will keep feet warm throughout the colder months, while the fabric’s added nylon fibers and a Propelium® midsole/outsole will also offer durability and comfort for weekend walks.

 

Tory Sport Performance Merino Diagonal-Striped Sweater

 

Although officially designed for on the golf course, the Performance Merino Diagonal-Striped Sweater from Tory Sport is too stylish to save for just practicing your swing. 

Knitted from a blend of merino wool and COOLMAX® fibers, the sweater will keep you warm and cozy this weekend, but not sweaty thanks to it wicking away moisture to help keep you dry.
