08/06/2020 - 06:35 PM

Regardless of the season in the UK and Ireland, there's one thing for sure: outerwear is an essential part of your gym kit. With unpredictable weather, hauling yourself out of bed for a workout (let alone for a run around the park) can be tough — we get it. To make sure you don't skip a chilly workout session, even in the deep, dark depths of winter, we shopped the internet to find the best activewear pieces [1] for the workouts when you just need a little bit of extra coverage.

From brightly coloured fleece jackets to tech-friendly tops, light layers [2], and cosy jumpers, these must haves are perfect additions for your winter active wardrobe. Check out our top picks, ahead.

Protest Revet Leopard Print Winter Jacket

We love a warm puffer jacket with a sassy print, and the Protest Revet Leopard Print Winter Jacket [3] (£105, originally £150) has both of those bases covered and is completely water resistant to boot.

Uniqlo Ultra Light Down Vest

Lightweight puffer vests, like the Uniqlo Ultra Light Down Vest [4] (£40), are essential for all seasons.

Sweaty Betty Retro Ski Headband

Nothing kills a runner's high quite like painfully cold ears, and that is where this Sweaty Betty Retro Ski Headband [5] (£21, originally £30) comes in.

The North Face Water Repellent 550 Down Crop Jacket

This The North Face Water Repellent 550 Down Crop Jacket [6] (190, originally £180) is also water-repellent to keep you both dry and super warm.

L'URV Energise Me Parachute Jacket

This L'URV Energise Me Parachute Jacket [7] (£81, originally £108) is designed to be thrown over your warm workout layers and will keep the rain at bay.

FP Movement Diversion Love Sleeve Top

This FP Movement Diversion Love Sleeve Top [8] (£40, originally £58) is the perfect light layer, and it even has thumb holes to add a little bit of extra coverage for your hands on chilly days.

M&S 4-Pack Cotton Rich Trainer Socks

Winter is the ideal time to upgrade your workout socks — we love these cosy and fitted M&S 4-Pack Cotton Rich Trainer Socks [9] (£8).

Nike Essential Packable Running Rain Jacket

This Nike Essential Packable Running Rain Jacket [10] (£70) will keep you covered and dry on your runs.

FP Movement She Fly Solid Jacket

The FP Movement Apex Half Zip [11] (£150) is a lightweight, anorak-style pullover that's very oversized and comfortable. While the outside feels like a water-resistant material, the inside is supersoft, plus, there is a hidden zipper pocket in the front. It's the perfect outer layer for a walk or trips to and from the gym.

Adidas Helionic Down Hooded Vest

Puffer vests are great for those days when it's not quite cold, but definitely not warm. The Adidas Helionic Down Hooded Vest [12] (£90) is a great choice because it's not bulky and it has a hood too.

Sweaty Betty Elite Seamless Merino Run Hoody

This cosy Sweaty Betty Elite Seamless Merino Run Hoody [13] (£115) will keep you warm on even the chilliest mornings.

Lululemon Cross Chill Jacket

This superstretchy Lululemon Cross Chill Jacket [14] (£198) is lightweight and perfect for wearing on runs. The jacket looks simple at first, but there are plenty of hidden features, like zipper pockets, as well as a secret hood that can be zipped away when not needed. There are also thumbholes so you can securely work out, and the entire jacket is water resistant.

H&M Hooded Running Jacket

This H&M Padded Hooded Outdoor Jacket [15] (£35) is made from a fast-drying fabric and has two zipper pockets

Lululemon x Roksanda Break New Ground 1/2 Zip

Ideal for a rainy day, the Lululemon Break New Ground 1/2 Zip [16] (£168) has plenty of room for layering underneath. Plus, it folds up into a small, travel-friendly pouch.

H&M Anti-Slip Yoga Socks

You'll thank us for telling you about the H&M Anti-Slip Yoga Socks [17] (£7) after your next barre or yoga class.

Sweaty Betty Glisten Bamboo Long Sleeve Gym Top

Made from Sweaty Betty's soft, warm, and eco-friendly bamboo fabric, the Sweaty Betty Glisten Bamboo Long Sleeve Gym Top [18] (£50) is a great layering piece.

Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 36

Featuring a mesh material on top, the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 37 [19] (£105) is a superbreathable choice, while keeping your feet warm.

Gymshark Vital Seamless Leggings

The bright colour of these Gymshark Vital Seamless Leggings [20] (£40) is a refreshing take on a single-colour legging for when you want to mix it up. They're made of a thicker knitted material, so they're snug and flattering but still extremely comfortable, and will never go opaque while squatting.

FP Movement Go For Gold Reversible Pullover

You'll never get tired of breaking a sweat in this FP Movement Go For Gold Reversible Pullover [21] (£108), because it ticks both the cute and cosy boxes in a big way. The material is 100% cotton, so you know it's light and breathable, plus, it has side pockets (which are always welcomed).

FP Movement Hit the Slopes Jacket

This cosy FP Movement Hit the Slopes Jacket [22] (£158) features useful pockets for your keys and headphones.

FP Movement High-Rise 7/8 Length Good Karma Leggings

The FP Movement High-Rise 7/8 Length Good Karma Leggings [23] (£74) come in 27 different colours, so you're spoilt for choice. The leggings might look a bit small when you first receive them, but they're superstretchy and very comfortable. And while they're not squat-proof, they're ideal for walking, running, and lounging around the house.
