Athletes aren’t limited to just sweatpants or men’s track pants for pregame or training any longer. Performance technology and street-style have made joggers, tights and trainers mainstays. Modern colours and different fabrics will inspire you to try out a new way to work your style or working out something new on the fly.

RUNNING TIGHTS OR SHORTS?

Training outdoors or running the trails means you’re faced with a higher chance for unexpected distraction. Branches, bushes and water splashes can cause diversions that need your attention. Tights offer more coverage than shorts as you push forward. But a variety of men’s running shorts come with compression layers built in, so you can get both. Get creative and build your own layers with men’s leggings and shorts made with a tech fabric like climacool® which has ventilated mesh inserts to stay dry and comfortable.

MEN’S WORKOUT TIGHTS

Typically shorter for target specific compression and comfort, men’s workout leggings are the go-to style under gym shorts for general training. Look for the adidas “TECHFIT” waist to ensure your gym tights have ultra-soft seams to reduce chafing and deliver a comfortable ergonomic fit.

Court to city-scape

Athletes are mixing their performance wear between pre-game training and post-game cruisin’. For light, stretchy, comfy, slick men’s pants, check out cargo joggers, stadium sweatpants or performance logo pants to warm-up on the court or kick it cool-like on a Friday night.
