Retro-Inspired Workout Gear Is the Latest Fitness Trend and We're Completely On Board

Everyone love a good throwback style, right?

By Liz Kennedy

I am a true lover of workout gear. (Need further proof? It's documented here and here and here.) I’m also a fan of anything retro because, well, nostalgia. Put the two together and you’ve got tops and bottoms I literally never want to take off. Retro workout gear is coming in fast, grab yourself one of the chic looks below and bring back the '80s and '90s.

Nike Sportswear Archive

The perfect pullover is back. Made with brushed-back fleece for warmth and a half-zip design for easy layering, this will be your new favorite pullover. 


Nike Sportswear Rally Pant

You loved them in high school and you’ll love them now. These pants are super soft for everyday comfort with a tapered ankle for a retro feel, and are especially perfect for post-workout.


Back In Action Short

These super short shorts bring us right back to the 70’s. The split sides will let you move freely and the lightweight, sweat-wicking fabric are perfect for all your sprints.


Eliot Track Jacket

If you’re looking for the perfect running staple, this is it. This moisture-wicking jacket will keep you toasty on your long runs all winter long–the company says it’s specifically made for foul-weather.


Van Cortlandt Singlet

Channel your inner cross-country star with this mesh singlet. This is so lightweight you may actually forget you’re wearing it.


Reebok Classics Graphic Pullover Hoodie

Remember when you were younger and everything you wore was oversized? Lucky for us, the trend is back. Made with organic cotton, this super comfy pullover is the perfect addition to your athleisure collection.


NB Athletics 78 Jacket

A nod to their classic 1978 windcheater jacket, New Balance’s 78 jacket has been reconstructed to give you a new, more modern look and fit. You’re going to want to take a few laps around the track in this one. 


Essentials Crew Reverse

Remember when it was cool to wear your sweatshirt inside out? Well, guess what? It’s cool again! With updated touches like a chest pocket and ribbed neck, this sweatshirt feels contemporary and classic at the same time


J.Crew Premium Performance Colorblock Unitard

The '80s called and they want their unitard back, but they can’t have it because we want to wear it now. The color blocking and adjustable straps on this unitard create both a perfect look and fit.
