We’re still in the midst of winter, but spring is definitely on the horizon, which means a couple things: layering gets more challenging, as weather shifts from warm to cold, and back again. Precipitation varies, for similar reasons. And many of us are coming out of our winter cocoons, looking for gear that will help us shake off hibernation and emerge into spring.

The through-line of impending spring is apparent in February’s fitness gear releases — from athleisure-influenced chinos to velvety sweaters, this month is all about combining coziness and practicality.

Structured Stretch Brady Pant

For all you loungers out there, this is your new go-to pant (and maybe Tom’s too, now that he’s officially retired). Made to be dressed up or down, the Brady Pant mixes comfort and utility in the form of four-way stretch fabric, a fixed waist, hidden zipper storage and hard-working nylon. Pair these with a slouchy hoodie, or throw on a blazer and t-shirt, and you’ll be ready to roll.

Since launching headphones and earbuds a couple of years ago, Adidas has steadily improved its audio products, and these new ones are the best yet. The minimalist, ergonomic form factor is great for workouts (and sneaking under a helmet), while an optional awareness mode lets in ambient noise to keep you safe on the streets. Sweat-proof with an IPX5-rating, the buds feature intuitive controls via a glove-friendly force sensor and long battery life — 6 hours per charge and 19 hours in the slim, capsule-shaped case.

Fabletics Black History Month Apparel

Insanely popular athleisure brand Fabletics has launched a charitable, unisex capsule collection in celebration of Black History Month. The brand collaborated with two artists, Rob Lewis and Melissa Koby, to design four brand-new illustrations that appear on one of Fabletic’s most popular silhouettes, the “Go-To” Tee. The t-shirt is a relaxed fit, offered in inclusive sizing (XS to XXL). As part of its charitable initiative, Fabletics has pledged a $50,000 donation to be split between Community Spring and Imagine Black Futures, two grassroots organizations selected by the artists.

Satisfy Coffeethermal Base Layer

Coffee keeps us warm when we drink it, so the same apples when we wear it… right? That’s the basis of Satisfy’s new slim-fit baselayer: coffee charcoal fibers are woven into the fabric, giving it not only a unique colorway, but thermo-regulating properties as well. Proprietary NILIT-HEAT Coffee Thermal fabric is naturally heat-retentive, antibacterial and odor resistant, and uses waste product from coffee production to enhance sustainability and efficiency.
