Sweatpants have become a wardrobe essential for many as stay home orders are still being implemented around the country. But as the weather starts to warm up, you may want to consider slipping into something a little cooler. Enter sweat shorts. Though nothing new, the style has been reimagined from strictly sporty to casually chic, since more and more people are working from home.
Of course, leave it to streetwear stars to make the cropped style cool. You can’t scroll through Instagram (or TikTok) these days without coming across someone wearing sweat shorts. And who can blame them? They are comfortable, even less restricting, and look effortlessly-chic when styled right. Classic white t-shirts, crop tops, and matching sweatshirts seem to be choice. But you can even layer on a blazer and slip into some strappy sandals for a more sophisticated look.
You see, sweat shorts are a great option when you don’t want to sacrifice that loungewear feel for style. Whether you’re looking for a pair that’s sporty, comes in a feel-good print like tie dye or is a little more understated, there are a ton of comfortable and cute sweat shorts to choose from this season.
