athleisure

Sporty everyday clothing

Athleisure is clothing designed for athletic activity but worn casually—yoga pants at the grocery store, running shoes at brunch.

The term blends "athletic" and "leisure," capturing how sportswear became everyday fashion in the early 21st century: She changed into athleisure after work.

The style prioritizes comfort without looking like you just came from the gym.
