Hot-Weather Running Gear


Summer running is a sweaty business, no matter who you are. But hot-weather running gear can help you enjoy a workout on warm days. From moisture-wicking shirt fabrics to lightweight designs that support airflow, check out some ideal athletic wear for running in hot weather.

Best moisture-wicking shirts for hot weather

The best cooling shirts for hot weather are made with fabric that wicks sweat and dries quickly to keep moisture from building up against your body. You'll find a wide range of moisture-wicking t-shirts and running tanks for men and women in the Brooks collection. Try out our super-soft women’s Luxe Tank or go for our ultra-breathable women's Sprint Free Tank 2.0 or women’s Distance Tank 3.0 with a run-ready fit that moves with you. Explore men’s running shirts like our men’s Distance Tank 3.0 or the super-light Atmosphere Singlet 2.0 that keeps you dry and comfortable for miles. Want something you can run and relax in? Our men’s Luxe Short Sleeve and women’s Luxe Short Sleeve breathable enough for hot-weather running and lounging in comfort. And if you worry about chafing and move your arms a lot while you run, you might want to opt for something like the men’s Distance Short Sleeve 3.0 and women’s Distance Short Sleeve 3.0 running shirt for more coverage.

Best running shorts for hot weather

Choose summer running shorts that are loose enough to allow airflow but not so floppy that they rub or catch on sweaty skin. For a bit of room while you run, consider options like the women's Chaser 7" Short or the men's Sherpa 7" Short. For more range of motion try men’s and women’s 5-inch running short styles like the comfortable men's Sherpa 5" Short or women's Chaser 5" Short with plenty of pockets to hold your phone and then some. Avoid chafing on summer runs with short tights like the women’s Spark 8” Short Tight and women’s Spark 5” Short Tight with a stay-put fit so you can run on with no distractions. For shorts designed for optimal speed even in the heat, try 3-inch running shorts like the men’s Sherpa 3" Split Short.

Best summer running gear

Round out your summer running gear with hats or visors to protect your face and eyes from the sun, sports bras for women to keep things in place, and lightweight running shoes that support you without adding heavy bulk.
