As collegiettes™, there’s never a moment when we don’t want to look and feel our best. Those long hours at the gym are no exception — having the right workout gear is vital to a great workout, and let’s be real, if our butts look fab in those yoga pants, we certainly aren’t complaining (and neither is the cute guy lifting weights near your treadmill). Whether you’re training for a 5k or doing sun salutations, here are some of our top picks from adidas, Nike, lululemon athletica and more for gym attire that’s cute, comfy and totally effective!
adidas CLIMACOOL Ride Shoes, $90
Turn up the heat, because trust us — in these shoes, you’ll be able to handle it! Seen on celebrities like Olivia Wilde and Katie Holmes, these running shoes are flexible, lightweight and feature CLIMACOOL technology, which keeps your feet dry and cool with 360° ventilation and decreases moisture by 20 percent to prevent foot diseases which may be caused by humidity. The white/crystal/blue color shown above is new this season, so be the first to sport them!

VS Pink Bling Bootcut Yoga Pant, $39.50
There’s nothing like sexy lingerie to inspire you to hit the gym, and Victoria’s Secret has got you covered (pun intended) in the athletic department, too! VS Pink’s yoga pants give you that perfect booty (so you don’t have to worry next time you’re in downward dog), and can we really say no to a little bling on our bottoms?

adidas Clima Strappy Sport Tank, $38
Sports bra just not cutting it? adidas has the top for you. Not only is this tank made with CLIMACOOL ventilation to give you room to breathe, it’s also got a high-impact inner bra so you’ve got all the support you need to get going, and the stylish, slim fit keeps you looking your best.

Nike Tempo Track Women’s Running Shorts, $32
Is it just me, or did Nike copy Her Campus’s color scheme? Regardless, these running shorts feature sweat-wicking Dri-FIT and a low-rise cut for ultimate comfort. The raised edges not only offer a wider range of movement, but the cut is more slimming than a straight cut across the bottom hem.

Keep your muscles warm in this white zip-up! The slim fit helps you show off your bod even when you’re layering up, and the two-way stretch fabric with moisture wicking allows you freedom of movement.
