Sports are more popular than ever — as such, so are its athletes. They’re becoming bigger than the box score by betting on investing, gaming and, most commonly, fashion. You can follow along with all of the biggest stars — and their mega fits — on a handful Instagram accounts dedicated to documenting their pre-game looks, whether it’s when they arrive in the tunnel (a nickname for the walkway to the locker room) or run out onto the field for warmups.
Most high-profile athletes re-share the images captured by their respective teams’ social media managers, paparazzi snaps from outside the hotels they stay in for away games and professional photos taken during public appearances, at say, backstage with their favorite musician (and new friend), on stage at award shows and such. Following accounts that aggregate the best of these looks into one feed frees up the time you would’ve spent searching for these photos on your own.
Below you’ll find accounts dedicated to basketball, football, baseball, hockey and soccer stars — specifically, the clothing they wear, how they do their hair and the sneakers they collect.
LeagueFits
CourtesyLeagueFits, which is run by Slam, the foremost basketball magazine, launched in 2018. That’s when, with the help of Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant and LeBron James, the concept of athletes as models really took off. It was also the dawn of the influencer. This intersection made LeagueFits the ideal follow, and, as such, the account’s amassed nearly one million followers in just three years. Go here for photos of athletes from the NBA and WNBA exclusively.
