How to wear a tracksuit in summer?

The tracksuit is a staple piece in streetwear and casual wardrobes, and it can also be worn stylishly and comfortably in summer. Although often associated with cooler seasons, there are several tips to wear it even in warm weather. Here are our recommendations for wearing a tracksuit in summer.

Choosing a tracksuit suitable for the season

In summer, it’s important to favor lightweight and breathable materials:

  1. Light cotton or jersey: ideal to avoid excessive sweating

  2. Technical polyester: allows better moisture wicking

  3. Loose cuts: to promote air circulation and avoid a stifling feeling

Opt for summery colors

  • Light colors: beige, white, pastel, or light gray absorb less heat

  • Bright shades: yellow, blue, or green add a dynamic and summery touch

  • Light prints and patterns: a good way to bring style while staying cool

How to pair a tracksuit in summer?

  • Relaxed look
    Light jogging + oversized t-shirt + low sneakers
    Light zipped sweatshirt + tracksuit shorts + stylish slides

  • Streetwear look
    Loose tracksuit pants + tank top + cap + high-top sneakers
    Tracksuit top open over a graphic t-shirt + matching shorts

  • Casual chic look
    Fitted jogging + light linen shirt + minimalist sneakers
    Light sweatshirt + tracksuit pants + trendy sunglasses.

Mistakes to avoid

  1. Too thick materials: they retain heat and can be uncomfortable

  2. Too dark colors: they absorb heat and increase the feeling of warmth

  3. Unnecessary layering: lighten your outfit to avoid a stifling effect

Conclusion

The tracksuit can be perfectly worn in summer if you choose suitable materials, summery colors, and a more airy cut. By playing with accessories and combinations, you can easily adopt a streetwear, casual, or chic look without suffering from the heat.
