Fall fitness can be a fickle friend. When searching for activewear, shoes, accessories and outerwear that can ride the thin line of fluctuating temperatures that characterize this season, one has to keep multiple variables in mind: cool, crisp mornings that demand layers, which segue into blazing hot afternoons where a thin t-shirt and shorts will do, which crash right back into chilly evenings that necessitate long layers.
Pro tip: Rather than pack an entire duffel with separate items of clothing for each change in the day, go for multi-use activewear that naturally insulates, like merino wool. Layer up by pairing short and long-sleeve tees meant to wick moisture with lightweight and windproof running jackets. Slide on sneakers built to perform in a variety of environments.
Fall fitness is all about making the most out of the least amount of gear. With strategic layering and material choices, you can stay comfortable and efficient. Here are our top choices for this October.
