Sweat shorts: the heatwave essential for WFH and working out

Crikey, it's hot. The kind of hot that makes you want to spend all day lolling around in your bikini in the park. Or drinking Aperol in the garden in the skimpiest mini dress you own.

But alas, it’s not yet the weekend and the WFH show must go on, thus suitable heatwave-appropriate working attire must be found.

And what could make the migration from sweatpants easier than a pair of sweat shorts? Perfect for working in your humid house and popping to the shops – and also ideal for that impromptu game of tennis or Frisbee in the park.

Whether you’re into a co-ord set, sweat-friendly fabrics or something a little luxier, exercise shorts have most definitely had a lockdown fashion makeover.

Pair with tie-dye tees and Tevas for a park picnic, or Nike socks and New Balance 530s for ultimate influencer vibes.
