The Tokyo 2020 Games are well underway, featuring fierce competition, fired-up athletes and sharper-than-ever outfits.

Keeping up with all the action, however, is a high-performance discipline of its own. Luckily, our top picks will keep you both feeling and looking fantastic.

Below we reveal our favourite apparel & gear that’ll make you feel like a champ every time.

You know those outfits you rock equally well in the gym, at work, and after-hours? That’s athleisure at its most stylish. It’s functional, comfortable, and surprisingly technical.

Our first set of picks nail that athleisure flair, inspired by post-workout wear and rest days.

icebreaker Tech Lite SS Low Crewe T-Shirt
Considered icebreaker’s most versatile tech t-shirt, the Tech Lite SS Low Crewe is an aesthetically modest yet functionally awesome piece of athleisure. Thanks to its Merino wool construction, the tee is lightweight, breathable, odour-resistant, and fast-drying. For wear around the office, the Crewe pairs nicely beneath an unstructured blazer.

Champion Reverse Weave Pullover Hoodie
Whether you’re working up a sweat on the track or sitting cozily at your desk, the Champion Reverse Weave Pullover Hoodie is an essential athleisure sweater. The minimalist design features a low-key embroidered ‘C’ logo on both the chest and sleeve. Inside, the brushed fleece is soft to the touch, while the outside kangaroo pouch offers some much-needed storage that your yoga pants sorely lack.

Lolë Olivie Crop Jogger Pants
Take your casual style up a notch with these Olivie Crop Jogger Pants. Made for chilling at home, days on the go around the city, and laid-back weekends at the cottage, these pull-on, regular rise pants are cropped in the leg for a more summery look and can be easily adjusted at the waist with the drawstring.

Alo Yoga High-Waist Airbrush Legging
The holy grail of athleisure and the garment that started it all: yoga pants. Meet the Alo Yoga High-Waist Airbrush Legging. With a five-inch rise and contoured design, these leggings are both flattering and understated. The lined, gusseted crotch and four-way-stretch fabric allow for freedom of movement, while the absence of side seams give them a streamlined look. The only problem with such versatile leggings is forgetting to take them off!

Patagonia Altvia Trail Pants
Trail-ready office slacks? The Patagonia Altvia Trail Pants represent an athleisure milestone. The four-way stretch fabric is comfortable whether you’re sitting at your desk all day or ascending Mount Washington. Meanwhile, a DWR finish stops moisture at the surface, whether it’s a sudden downpour or a spilled drink. Best of all, the slim-fit design gives these pants a flattering, streamlined appearance.

The North Face Canyonlands Hoodie
Stretchy, durable, and soft to the touch, the Canyonlands Hoodie by The North Face is an understated and reliable companion, from the boardroom to the campfire. Zippered hand pockets offer ample storage and warmth, while a zippered breast pocket is perfect for stashing your phone.

Arc’teryx A2B Polo Shirt SS
As far as tops go, nothing is quite as versatile as the classic polo - business from the chest up and casual from the chest down. What makes the Arc’teryx A2B Polo Shirt particularly versatile, however, is its Merino-polyester construction.

Picture Aktiva Shorts
Highly durable yet versatile and comfy, the Aktiva short is the perfect match for high-intensity outdoor and lounging activities. The three-material construction offers durability & unsurpassed freedom of movement

If cheering from the sidelines is inspiring you to start training for your own medal, we’ve zoned in on the most versatile athletic techwear to take you from couch potato-ist to gold medalist.

Arc’teryx Atom LT Hoody
A true athlete never stops training - not even in winter. For those serious about earning their podium status, the right gear lets you persevere through even the most bitterly cold days. The Arc’teryx Atom LT Hoody is an insulated lightweight jacket perfect for high-intensity outdoor sports.

Brooks Drive 3 Pocket Run Bra
Normal bras aren’t suited to high-performance sports. They’re known for underarm burns and chaffed shoulders. That’s why a sports bra is key. For extended periods training, the Brooks Drive 3 Pocket Run Bra is awesome. Bonded seams reduce friction and chafing, while three pockets (a mesh pocket on either side and a phone pocket in back) leave plenty of room for all your essentials.

For fitness and competition swimmers, the arena Solid Swim Pro Lining Swimsuit is a solid choice. The ergonomically designed back offers excellent support and a secure fit while swimming laps. 100% chlorine resistance makes it great for indoor pool swimming, while UPF50+ face fabric makes it ideal for outdoor use.

Smooth, light, and airy, the Under Armour UA Play Up 3.0 Shorts will keep you cool and dry through any HIIT workout or scorching summer run. Anti-odour tech prevents odour-causing bacteria from growing, while the curved hem creates a flattering fit.

Severe weather can’t stop a gold medalist in-the-making. For extreme outdoor conditions, the Arc’teryx Beta AR Jacket has got you covered. It’s packable, water-resistant, breathable, and durable. Whether you’re mountain biking or climbing, the DropHood lets you wear a helmet comfortably beneath your hood. A Recco reflector in the collar substantially increases safety in the event of an emergency.

From the brand that brought you the revolutionary Cloud running shoes, meet the On Trail Breaker Long Sleeve top. The super soft cotton-modal construction is comfortable and odour-resistant. Features thumb holes for colder days and a peek-a-boo slit for your smartwatch. A raised collar and half-zip let you insulate or vent heat with ease.

Arc’teryx Incendo Pant
For a versatile and lightweight pair of pants, look no further than the Arc’teryx Incendo Pant. These slim-fit pants are perfect at the gym, on your bike, and while you run. The minimal elastic waistband is comfortable and won’t lead to chafing, while stretch nylon is flexible and moisture-wicking. Features one rear zip pocket and one rear phone pocket.
