Your Summer Running Kit Never Looked So Good
Winter really is a testing ground for runners. While the cold, dark evening runs are certainly character-building, any runner that tells you they prefer winter to summer is quite simply lying. The prospect of warmer workouts is exciting by itself, but the prospect of copping your all-new summer running gear is even better.
Luckily, there isn’t too much legwork to be done. Our selection below is tried and tested, with an equal focus on style and performance. We’ve picked out all of the items you need for a complete summer running kit. From the trainers to the tights and everything in between, this is your summer running gear.

Tops
Loewe On Mesh Top
Loewe's partnership with On was one that didn't immediately feel natural. But, we're into its second generation now, and we're wondering why we ever doubted this duo.
Satisfy Tie-Dye T-Shirt
Paris-based label Satisfy has been the lynchpin of a resurgence in stylish running gear. This tie-dye tee shows that the label balances performance with style.
Over Over Sunset Performance T-Shirt
Over Over is a label that's new on our radar, but feels like it should have been there for a long time. This logo tee, like the Satisfy selection above, offers performance acumen in an everyday-style package.
SOAR Half-Zip Windbreaker
Sure, summer's in our sights now, but we still have to get through spring. Any early spring starts are still liable to be chilly, so having a lightweight top layer on hand is essential.
Shorts
Ciele Athletics DLYShort
Ciele Athletics is an absolute priority in any modern running wardrobe. This pair of Kelly Green shorts is unimaginably lightweight, breathable, features ample space for a phone and keys, and looks great. What more could you want?
Over Over Two-Layer Running Shorts
A tie-dyed, camo-leaning finish gives this pair of performance shorts a head-turning aesthetic. The almost-transparent top layer means that you can barely feel this pair is on which is ideal for those warm-weather runs.
District Vision Sweatpants
Comfy sweatpants from District Vision through wind and rain.
Footwear
Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next% 2
Nike's Vaporfly range continues to impress, and while the super-light uppers and build might not shine during winter, there are few better places to kick off your fair-weather runs.
On Cloudboom Echo Sneakers
The On Cloudboom has been a revelation for our runs. The chunky sole unit provides unmatched energy return as well as support.
adidas Ultraboost Light Sneakers
adidas' Ultraboost has always got a spot in our rotation. It's a workhorse, plain and simple. But, with the new addition of the Ultraboost Light, the workhorse becomes sleeker, faster, and more competitive than ever.
