Say hello to extra breathable and stylish pieces you absolutely need this summer.
Promising review: "I bought these in hopes that they would work well for almost any occasion, and they do! I’m able to wear them to run errands or when I am working outside. They stay out and don’t shift when I’m moving around. They also do well if you’re sweating a ton because they won’t stick to you if you’re sweaty. Love these shorts and can’t recommend them enough!" —Hannahe26
Price: $22.97+ (available in sizes 0–16, regular, tall, and four colors)
Promising review: "I love comfortable dresses that I can lounge and travel in. I just wore this on a cross country flight and did stretches in it in an airport yoga room, and then was able to wear it straight to a casual dinner." —Megcore
Price: $89 (available in sizes XXS–2X, regular, tall, and petite, and three colors)
It has a UPF 50+ rating, is quick-drying, and is made out of recycled nylon!
Promising review: "FINALLY found a cute swim top that I can wear without worrying about a wardrobe malfunction. Love that I can wear this to a triathlon or to the water park with my kids. I paired it with the Rincon Bermuda shorts. This is the most excited I've been about swimwear in YEARS." —tamerbelles
Price: $59 (available in sizes XXS–XL and two colors; can be paired with the matching swim bottom, and also available as a one-piece)
It also has a hook and eye closure at the back, so you don't have to struggle with yanking a sweaty bra over your head.
Promising review: "I am a 36D and like a secure bra for running. This one is great, and there's no chafing. It's very comfortable to wear. I liked it so much, I've purchased two!" —Amy H.
Price: $29.97+ (available in sizes 32B–38DD and six colors)
Promising review: "As a petite person, I personally don't find maxi dresses that fit well and flatter but took a shot at trying this one. I've never found one that fits as well or is as flattering as this one. The combination of the slit, the side ruching, and overall material make it to where it will flatter and contour any body type and height. It is unbelievably comfortable and I can't wait to make it my go to dress this summer!" —Pharmer45
Price: $98 (available in Black and Calla Lily; sizes XXS–XL, regular, tall, petite, and plus)
Promising review: "I am a fit girl just under 5'4" who can never seem to find shirts that are the right length. I can't say enough good things about this shirt — it's loose but not boxy (SO RARE with crop tops) and the perfect length for me where it just grazes the top of my leggings when I walk around. The first day I wore it to the gym another petite lady asked where I bought it. I wish there were more colors, but I'll definitely be buying more!!" —Koala28
Price: $44 (available in sizes XXS–XL and five colors)
The breathable material lets sweat travel through the fabric so it evaporates on the surface.
Promising review: "The fabric is so soft and moves well. The sleeves are smart for someone who doesn't always want a tank or muscle shirt, but wants something light around the upper arm area. If you sweat, the material won't show the marks and airs out quickly. Love this shirt!!!!" —nicelder
Price: $37.99 (originally $54; available in sizes XXS–XL, regular, tall, and petite, and six colors)
It also has a zip pocket in the waistband to fit your phone, keys, cards, etc., as well as a little section in the shorts for holding tennis balls. What can't this bottom do??
Promising review: "I don't like to spend so much money on running clothes, but I can't help but buy a second one of these. I find that I'll make excuses not to run until it's clean again. If they could do anything better, I'd say to make this in a petite size. But that's not necessary. The shorts don't ride up and the waist is very flattering. There are enough pockets that I don't have to wear a belt." —BreeRuns
Price: $39.99+ (available in sizes XXS–XL, regular, tall, and plus, and four colors)
Promising review: "I can't say enough good things about these shorts. They are a great length and I love the paperbag top of the shorts. The best part about the shorts is the material. It has wonderful stretch and will dry quickly if they get wet. They feel like athletic shorts but look way dressier." —agraham
Price: $59 (available in sizes 0–16, regular and tall, and four colors)
The cups are removable and can be paired with their mastectomy bra inserts.
Promising review: "I have found the perfect sports bra! Most of my sports bras aren’t comfortable for extended periods of time and tend to tug and pull at my neck muscles, but I can barely tell this bra is even there — yet it’s SO supportive and provides zero movement during high-impact workouts! I’m typically a 34C or 36B and I could go either S or M. I have a small for days outside of my cycle and a M during my cycle." —Julie72
Price: $39+ (available in sizes XXS–XL and 16 colors)
It's also a great swim coverup!
Promising review: "I LOVE this dress! I bought it in black a couple of years ago and now have it in olive and a bright green color. It is lightweight and perfect for hot AZ days. Washes easily. It's my go-to summer dress!" —JulieB
Price: $69 (available in sizes XXS–XL, regular, tall, petite, and plus, and four colors)
Promising review: "I am 5'3" and 140 lbs and I bought a medium! It fits perfectly and it is my favorite top I own! I loved it so much I bought this one in a different color. I love pairing it with a biker short or a high waisted legging! I can even wear it with a real bra and don't feel like I'm exposing it too much! I highly recommend getting this top. Your life will be changed forever." —sami123
Price: $54 (available in sizes XXS–XL, regular, tall, and petite, and three colors)
They have removable Quickdri cups that are their fastest drying cups ever and maintain their shape wash after wash, so you can get back into the water as often as you want.
Promising review: "I bought the top with the bottom and the matching Cloudbreak Rib shorts as well. Very versatile and looks great on. Holds up well in the water too. I also bought the white vapor tank to wear over the bikini top and shorts when I want more coverage. This top is very comfortable and easy to get on and off, even when wet!" —LisaDee
Price: $59 (top; available in sizes XXS–XL and four colors) and $49 (bottom; available in sizes XXS–XL and three colors)
Promising review: "These pants are my new favorite piece of clothing. They are cool and breezy but the fabric is high quality and substantial enough that I can wear them to work. I also love the waistband, very comfortable and not bulky. I purchased both colors and they are exactly as shown online. Very pleased with this purchase!" —Piximom
Price: $84 (available in sizes 0–16, regular, tall, and petite, and two colors)
Promising review: " I love swimsuits that have cup sizes. I love the wrap feature, and I feel very secure in this top, which is a plus because usually swimsuit tops for larger bust sizes are very flimsy and have no support, or I have spillage." —Jenn23
Price: $48.99+ (available in sizes 32B/C–40D/DD and seven colors)
Promising review: "It fits great. The fabric is so soft and it rolls easily when packing for a trip. This dress can be dressed up with sandals and jewelry or dressed down with sneakers and a cute jacket." —Alicia
Price: $94.99 (originally $118; available in sizes XXS–XL, regular, tall, and petite, and two colors)
Promising review: "I hate being hot and having my clothes stick to me, but these linen shorts are so comfortable and airy!! I want them in every color!" —TipsyTripp
Price: $59 (available in sizes 0–16 and five colors; also available in printed versions)
Promising review: "I purchased several sports bras from Athleta for running and this was one of my top three favorites. The material is really soft. I also like the fun design of the straps which look cool but are still comfortable and don't take away from the overall support. I've worn this on a few runs already and it's very supportive." —Thanken91
Price: $24.97+ (available in sizes XS–XL and six colors)
Promising review: "I am a breast cancer survivor. I had a double mastectomy, I decided to go flat. One of the reasons I love this dress as the pads can be interchanged with the Empower Pads, the post-mastectomy bra inserts that I discovered at Athleta. These pads are awesome too! It’s a total ‘Game Changer‘ for me! The fabric is butter-soft deliciousness! You don’t have to let cancer dictate your style with clothing like this!" —Breast cancer sucks
Price: $89.99 (originally $128; available in sizes XXS–2X, regular, tall, petite, and plus)
Promising review: "Love this top. Super lightweight for hot summers. Fabric is soft and feels nice next to my skin. I love that this top is short-waisted with a 'fitted' band and not loose-hanging. I bought it to go with the Wander Slim Straight Crop and it looks amazing. Please make more tops like these." —WendyN
Price: $69 (available in sizes XXS–2X, regular, tall, and petite; also available in solid colors and a short-sleeved version)
Three words: side zip pockets!! They also have a mesh-lined waistband that helps keep the top from slipping or riding up.
Promising review: "I am 5’2” and pretty curvy after having children. I bought my usual XL and the shorts hit me right above the knee, so they don't ride up no matter what I’m doing. They also sit higher up on the waist, which I enjoy. Already ordered them in another color after not taking off my first pair for two days!" —Momtotinytot
Price: $59 (available in sizes XXS–XL, regular, tall, and plus, and four colors)
It has thumbholes to keep sleeves in place, underarm grommets to keep you cool, a front kanga pocket, and a zip pocket on the right side.
Promising review: "This jacket has become a first choice staple in my closet. It is so light weight, stretchy, and comfortable that I keep reaching for it over my other loved jackets. I use it for casual wear and also for golf warm ups and early morning outings." —BajaJAlphare
Price: $98 (available in sizes XXS–2X, regular, tall, petite)
