5 Activewear Essentials for Summer Adventures
Summer is the perfect time for hiking, beach trips, farmers markets, weekend getaways, and everything in between. The right activewear helps you stay cool, comfortable, and ready for wherever the day takes you. Here are five essentials we think every summer wardrobe needs:
1. A Breathable Performance Tank
A lightweight, moisture-wicking tank is a summer must-have. It's perfect for workouts, hikes, walks, or simply staying cool on warm days.
Look for:
Sweat-wicking fabric
Lightweight material
A versatile color you'll wear often
2. Bike Shorts
Comfortable, flattering, and endlessly versatile, bike shorts work just as well for a workout as they do with an oversized tee while running errands.
Our favorites include:
High-rise waistbands
Hidden pockets
Soft, supportive fabric
3. A Lightweight Layer
Summer mornings and evenings—especially in the Pacific Northwest—can still be chilly. A lightweight zip-up or jacket is easy to throw on before a hike or after class. Check out Nike, Lululemon, And Vuori for a few of our favorites.
4. A Go-To Pair of Leggings
Even in summer, leggings have their place. They're perfect for travel days, cooler mornings, yoga classes, and evenings around the campfire. Reach for a brighter color to go with the vibrance of summer!
