The Global Athleisure Market is estimated to be USD 144.25 Bn in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 281.4 Bn by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 14.3%.

Athleisure, a type of hybrid clothing, is a fabricated style of clothing typically worn during athletic activities and in other settings, such as at the workplace, at school, or at other casual or social occasions.
Athleisure outfits can include yoga pants, tights, sneakers, leggings, and shorts, that "look like athletic wear", characterized as "fashionable, dressed up sweats and exercise clothing".
The idea is that gym clothes are supposedly making their way out of the gym and becoming a larger part of people's everyday wardrobes.
Athleisure can be considered as a fashion industry movement, enabled by improved textile materials, which allow sportswear to be more versatile, comfortable, and fashionable.
