After a tough workout, there’s nothing like slipping into a cosy hoodie or cocoon-like co-ord.
It’s absolutely freezing right now, and that can make exercising that little bit harder. Not only does it take longer to warm up during a run or workout, but the prospect of schlepping to the gym in the cold or finishing a run and feeling chilly immediately afterwards can be off-putting.
The solution? Nabbing the cosiest, roomiest, softest set of trackies you can find. We’re not talking shell suits here; today’s co-ords are as stylish and luxurious as they are practical. From Alo Yoga’s chic, luxe loungewear sets, to Gap’s retro track pants, there’s a fleece-lined dose of comfort for all styles, activities and budgets.
Alo Yoga wide-leg pant and cropped Henley pullover
Cult brand Alo Yoga has now moved into loungewear and it’s possibly the cosiest, most luxurious way to relax and recover. This ivory set is coming soon but navy and espresso options are available now.
Shop cropped Henley pullover, £110 and high-waist wide-leg pant, £125
Sweaty Betty sand wash cloudweight crop hoody
There’s nothing like throwing on a massive hoodie after cantering over the finish line of a winter race – and this Sweaty Betty number is the one we want to be wearing with a new PB medal hanging round our necks.
Lululemon scuba high-rise relaxed jogger
Lilybod Lucy track pants
These smoky blue trackies are fleece lined, oversized, double pocketed and boast cuffed ankles for that ‘Oh me? I’ve just come from a Saturday 8am gym session and no, I’m not tired at all’ look.
Adidas by Stella McCartney full-zip hoodie
Zip hoodies seem to have fallen out of fashion these days but nothing is more practical than being able to release yourself from a blanket of soft organic cotton in one simple swoosh.

Champion minimal reverse-weave joggers
Simple and warm, Champion’s joggers are all about dopamine dressing. Sling these on before heading to the gym on a dark morning and you’re bound to feel motivated to move when you get there.
Pangaia recycled wool jersey wide-leg track pants
One of the most sustainable trackies out there, Pangaia’s loose-legged pants are made from recycled wool using pre- and post-consumer waste. They’re also genderless, meaning no awkward tapering.

Tala wide-leg club jogger
Made with recycled fibres, this oversized, soft pair of joggers is made for throwing on post-pilates ahead of a good brunch or coffee. The wide leg with split sides means your grip socks won’t get stuck on the fabric as you slip them on.
