Is Athletic Wear the New Trend?

Mia Morales
Being in style and keeping up with the latest fashion trends has always been a popular idea. Many people will copy what others are wearing without even knowing why they do. Some styles seem crazy and outrageous and will not be around for long, but oftentimes these fads will last for years and even decades.

Athleisure

Many used to wear these clothes only when going to the gym or when going for a run. Nowadays, it seems as though everyone you see while out doing errands is in some type of sporty outfit. Here are four reasons why this style is the new trend.

Comfortable

One of the prominent reasons many are turning to athletic pants and shirts for their everyday clothes is because of how comfortable they can be. These types of clothes give one a feeling of liberty when wearing, causing even the average, unfit human to make them a part of their wardrobe.

Popular

Although it is not always smart to follow the popular crowd, it seems like everyone else is wearing athletic clothes so why shouldn’t you? While this idea seems harmless, be careful not to change your lifestyle just to be with the “in-crowd.” Many prevalent companies are creating these styles of clothes.

Convenient

For those who are always in a hurry or constantly doing something, athletic outfits are some of the easiest to throw on. They do not need to be ironed, and you can still look fashionable without being over-dressed for the occasion. The designs and color schemes are fun things to be able to put on without feeling like you are out of style or mismatched.

Motivating

While you may not have any intentions of working out or getting in shape, wearing a type of workout clothing can instill in you the desire to want to. Once you put them on, you can feel like you are ready to get to work. They give one motivation to get the job done, there is something about wearing those clothes that makes you want to achieve goals.
Wearing athletic clothes used to be the tell-all that you were going to get a workout in, or that you had just come from a type of training exercise. Now it is popular to wear them for everyday occasions, and you don’t have to hide the fact that you have no specific, athletic reasons for wearing them.
