How to Style an Essentials Tracksuit: 6 Outfit Ideas

An Essentials tracksuit is one of the easiest outfits to put together: a hoodie and joggers in the same colour, and you are dressed. With a few small changes it works for the gym run, travel, the weekend and colder UK days too. Here are six ways to wear one.

1. Tonal black, head to toe

The simplest look. A tonal black Essentials tracksuit with black or white trainers looks clean and sharp, and black hides everyday wear. Add a black cap or beanie to keep it all in one colour.

2. Light oatmeal with white trainers

Light colours look fresh and expensive. The Light Oatmeal tracksuit pairs well with white or cream trainers and a white tee underneath. Keep accessories neutral so the colour stays the focus.

3. Layer a tee for colder days

For autumn and winter, wear a long sleeve tee under the hoodie. Our Essentials Long Sleeve T-Shirt adds warmth without bulk, and the cuffs can show slightly below the hoodie sleeves for a layered look.

4. Add a coat for UK weather

A long wool overcoat or a simple puffer over a grey or charcoal tracksuit is a smart way to stay warm while keeping the relaxed feel. Neutral coats such as black, navy or camel work with almost every tracksuit colour.

5. Split the set

Wear the hoodie with straight-leg jeans, or the joggers with a plain tee. It gets more wear out of each piece. Our Essentials joggers and Essentials t-shirts are designed to mix in.

6. Mix toning colours

You do not have to match exactly. Cream with oatmeal, or grey with charcoal, looks deliberate and works well. Try a Homestead Heather jogger with a cream hoodie.

Quick tips

• Most Essentials tops have a relaxed or oversized fit. See our sizing guide before choosing your size.
• Cuffed joggers sit neatly on top of trainers, so choose a low-profile shoe if you want the cuff to show.
• Keep branding in one place: if the hoodie has a big logo, pair it with plain bottoms.
