The 16 Best Athleisure Brands For Women Of 2025

Ready to find your new favorite yoga pants for coffee trips or an exercise dress to keep you cool during hot summer days? Clearly, athleisure items can be some of the most versatile pieces you own, so long as you shop with a few key factors in mind:

What To Consider

Prices

While athletic clothes are probably some of the more casual items in your closet, a lot of popular brands list the lounge pieces surprisingly high. But thanks to the popularity of the style trend, we found brands at a range of price points and for every budget.

Size Ranges

The brands we’ve ranked highly have notably inclusive size ranges, including extended sizes, length options for pants and leggings, cup sizes for sports bras, and more. However, each brand offers different measurement ranges, so check the brand’s guidelines before buying. Notably, Girlfriend Collective has the largest size range of our top brands, with leggings going from XXS up to 6XL.

How You’ll Wear the Items

If you’re looking to add pieces that double as workout gear, keep an eye out for fabrics that are moisture-wicking and breathable. Options like the Nulu fabric from Lululemon will be comfortable for low-impact workouts (think: yoga, Pilates, hot girl walks!). If you’re looking for true loungewear that’s more structured than your standard sweatpants, soft cotton and relaxed silhouettes will do the trick. Styles like Vuori’s joggers still show off your frame, while being less compressive and restrictive than leggings.

How We Chose

We shared our top 16 brands after polling our editors to find out which athleisure brands they love the most. Having tested a wide range of products over the years, we also included some of our editors’ favorite pieces from each brand to help you get started shopping.

Lululemon

Pros

  • Wide range of style options
  • Brand lists best activities for each piece
  • Colorful

Cons

  • Popular sizes sell out quickly

Lululemon is behind some of our editors’ favorite leggings, but the brand offers more than just comfortable gear for workouts. You can shop loungewear, workwear, and chic outerwear too. The brand earned the spot as our best overall pick thanks to its versatile fabrics, flattering silhouettes, and versatility—Lululemon’s site lists what each item was designed for, which makes it easy to shop for clothing that’s for training, everyday wear, or both. It’s also a great place to buy athleisure pieces that’ll stand the test of time.

Pros

  • Ultra comfortable fabrics
  • Neutral and bright color options

Cons

  • Not ideal for high-intensity workouts

This California coast-inspired brand is behind some of the softest leggings, joggers, and tees. We wouldn’t recommend Vuori’s pieces for intense, HIIT-style workouts, but for traveling, low-impact sessions, and lounging, they’re some of our favorites. Vuori leans into simple, clean designs that are easy to style. The brand even has a handy travel style section on its site. Wash after wash, Vuori’s fabrics maintain their softness and shape.

Odds are high you’ve seen 437’s logos on TikTok, as the brand has become an influencer favorite, largely due to its cute and casual matching sets that make getting ready a little bit easier. You can also shop for separates that pair well with sweats or jeans. While 437 sticks to simple, solid colors that are easy to mix and match, it offers a range of styles—from sleek, body-contouring activewear to cozy, loose-fitting sweats.

Day To Night Styles

Gold Hinge

Pros

  • Can easily pair with everyday wear
  • Wide range of styles
  • More affordable than other brands

Cons

  • Small size range

We’re fans of Gold Hinge’s stylish, athletic pieces you can easily incorporate into your day-to-day wardrobe, like this quarter-zip tank. The brand is more affordable than some others on our list, and the versatility adds to the value. You’ll find hoodies, leggings, exercise dresses, and more under for $100. Gold Hinge’s styles are colorful and simple, but all stick to sporty silhouettes that give your lounge a polished look.

While Forme’s popular Power Bra works perfectly under a tank or tee for a true athleisure look, the brand’s posture-correcting item (you know it as the sports bra Taylor Swift wore while training for the Eras Tour) can also be worn under your most comfortable sweatshirt. Take advantage of the bra’s posture benefits by day paired with a sweater or by night in your pajamas. And don’t forget to shop Forme’s range of athleisurewear—including leggings, tees, and even socks. Pieces are pricey, but we think worth it.

Size Range XS-3XL
Best For Wearing to and from the gym, helping with posture under shirts

Spanx’s origins start in the shapewear department, and the brand’s since brought its sculpting, compressive materials to athleisure. Shop flared leggings that give a bit of a boost to your booty and add tummy control for comfort. You’ll also find traditional leggings, bike shorts, and workout dresses. The styles pair well with sweaters and tees for casual daytime looks. You can easily work them into your outside-of-the-house looks while feeling confident in the shapewear silhouettes.

Pros

  • Trendy styles
  • Limited edition color drops
  • Minimalist designs

Cons

  • Size range doesn’t apply to all styles

We’ve gotten our hands on some pieces of Golden (Aritzia’s activewear brand) and have been impressed by the high-quality, sleek, and easy-to-wear styles. The versatile items are buttery soft and come in under $100 for nearly every piece. The fashion brand blends its sleek, simple styles into its activewear line, which features leggings, onesies, tops, and bras. Details like princess seams and subtle ruching give the minimalist pieces added texture.

Can you work out in athleisure?

Yes! The athleisure trend stems from workout clothes, so these pieces double as activewear. Of course, you’ll want to check the fabrication details to make sure they meet your usual workout clothing expectations (are they sweat-wicking? breathable?). We recommend saving the thicker, cotton fabrics of sweatpants and hoodies for post-workout lounging, but leggings and crop tees are our go-tos for a sweat session.
