There was a time when it was almost frowned upon showing up anywhere outside the gym in sneakers, yoga pants and just a sports bra but today’s street styles consist of a fresh out of the gym outfit inspired look. The Kardashian sisters popularised this trend by wearing clothes from Kanye West’s Yeezy which consisted of cycling shorts, joggers and oversized hoodies. Other celebrities and bloggers like Bella Hadid and Hailey Baldwin quickly followed the Kardashians and now we have everyone obsessed with this comfy yet chic athleisure trend. With the rise of popularity of athleisure brands like Nike, Adidas, and JD, it’s no wonder that consumers started seeking clothing that is comfortable and fashionable at the same time.
