Keep That Skating Edge Over Summer!
Many of their styles also have invisible zippered pockets, side vents and a flat cargo pocket. Details such as this add up to comfort and function when you need a place to safely stow your keys or some cash as you dash out. Hot this season is Athleta's Cross Over Tank. Made of soft, buttery Supplex it has a lot of stretch but enough thickness to the fabric to hide undergarments such as a sports bra. Still their Performance Polo is the clear winner this season because of its lightweight breathability due to the moisture managing fabric called Wick-It. Soft collar, no buttons at the neckline to fuss with, this top will take you from the golf course to a luncheon in style and comfort.
Their Ultra Run Pant is perfect for the hardcore runner because its made of Drynamic fabric and does a great job of keeping you dry despite heavy sweating. Now these are a refreshing switch from the usual baggy jogging pants. The Ultra Run Pant has reflective, locking zippers which are great if you run at night and that all important rear invisible zippered pocket.
If you want to hike or backpack, the Mineret Short would be perfect but if you want a bit more coverage, I'd recommend Athleta's Technorganic Jam Short. These are super lightweight shorts with no hardware or zippers. They look and feel a lot like linen but don't wrinkle like it. Drawstring waist and Velcro fly, these are great for the beach or rafting because moisture can cause zippers to rust.
