When you think of track tops, adidas is the MVP. Heavy contenders since day one, the Brand with Three Stripes continues to live up to its heritage.

Scroll down on any adidas Track Top product page and you'll come across this quote:

“We're not saying that adidas introduced the tracksuit back in '64. But that doesn't mean others haven't said it.”

It's a bold statement, but when one brand dominates a category like adidas does track tops, it's difficult to argue with.

Athletic fits will forever remain timeless. This is largely down to its roots. Because they're expressly designed as functional uniforms, adidas tracksuit tops are unaffected by changing trends. That's not to say that adidas track tops have not been influencing trends.

Tracksuits began to filter into the leisure market as early as the '70s, and by the '90s, adidas track tops had become a street style staple. Favored by B-Boys in New York and British mods alike, there's a near universal appeal to the classic zip-up tracksuit top.

There's a wealth of reasons for that. A good tracksuit jacket is comfortable, versatile, and easy to look after. Rave-ready and podium-appropriate, it's hard to go wrong. “What's undeniable is that those three stripes have been popping off of it for decades, whether on the sidelines, in stadiums, or on the streets. Everyone from athletes to clubgoers has embraced it, and you can too,” riffs the brand.

In that spirit, we hit the net to round up 10 of the best adidas track tops to wear in 2022. Ranging from the signature adidas Firebird and adidas Beckenbauer styles to collaborative pieces with the likes of Kerwin Frost, our selection shows the range of the most humble piece in your wardrobe.
