What makes a good tracksuit?
If you want to splurge out and make a cosy investment, look to quality materials like cotton or wool for ultimate warmth year-round.
However, if you’re looking to save cash but don’t want to skimp on quality, cotton blends and fleeces are a great bet for comfy tracksuits.
Also, take into consideration when and where you’re planning to wear these. If they’re strictly for the home you can go for something more formless, but if you’re aiming to nail the athleisure look then you can shop something a bit more ‘fashion-forward’.
