An Editor Says These Are the 36 Best Summer Activewear Pieces for 2025

I'm always a gym person, but summer brings the most intense fitness routine out of me. I like to add more things to the mix—like long walks, padel and tennis games with friends, and extra workouts—since the sun is out for far longer. This summer in particular, I've decided to go all in. I've booked the classes, I've picked a playlist, and most importantly, I've stocked my cart with the kind of activewear that actually makes me want to show up.

Whether it's a chic matching set that doubles as an errand outfit or a buttery-soft sports bra I never want to take off, these pieces are helping me romanticize movement again. If you're also in your fitness era—or just need a cute new-legging moment—these are the 36 activewear finds I'm eyeing right now.
