Looking for a gift that will impress and delight the people on your gift list with athletic prowess? Look no further than our amazing selection of athletic shoes, clothing and accessories! They’re the gifts that keep on giving—in the gym, track, court or the yoga studio.
During the Lollapalooza Music Festival in Chicago last week, adidas held their fifth annual backstage gifting station in a vintage-style Airstream complete with the adidas original logo.
Some of the artists who stopped by the adidas Airstream booth were The Foo Fighters, Mayer Hawthorne, Atmosphere, Best Coast, and Noah and the Whale, just to name a few. Adidas icons such as the Superstar, Gazelle, Campus and Samoa were gifted during this star-studded event, along with newer styles and colorways.
Staying active throughout the summer means picking the right workout gear to get you through the hot and humid conditions. If you love taking your workouts outside, you probably know that your average cotton t-shirt and shorts just won’t cut it.
Look for workout shoes and clothing that are breathable and wick away sweat quickly to keep those warm-weather workouts more comfortable.
Here are some essentials we love to work up a sweat in all summer long: (fromt top left)
Nike Sublimated Hypercool Tank Top: The Dri-FIT® technology keeps you dry, while the sleek design keeps you looking great, even through brutal circuits.
Lolë Lanai Halter Bikini Top: For swimming laps, a thicker halter bikini top is ideal for a more secure fit. This can also double as a top for hot yoga sessions!
Brooks Epiphany Bra Top: The mesh lining and racerback cut make this bra top perfect for a variety of workouts.
adidas Climacool® Ride: A lightweight running shoe with a mesh overlay to keep your feet comfy and dry, even through marathon training.
Nike Tempo Track Shorts: For serious runners who run through the hottest conditions, these lightweight shorts are a must.
Eurosock 5K Cool Ped Socks: These socks not only keep your feet ventilated, they have the perfect balance of lightweight comfort and impact support.

He recently stopped by the adidas office and did an impromptu photoshoot sporting some of his favorite adidas gear (from Clima Cool, to adidas Originals, to Y-3).
