In 2026, the Coolest Dressers Are Opting For Track Pants Over Leggings

It’s a widely accepted truth that comfort doesn’t have to come at the expense of style, and there are a handful of wardrobe staples that deliver both in equal measure. At the top of my list right now? Track pants.

Where leggings were once the style set’s default for off-duty dressing, I’ve noticed the coolest dressers are increasingly favouring relaxed, straight-leg track pants for the day-to-day. Reinforcing the trend just this week, I spotted Sofia Richie Grainge confirming just how polished the sporty staple can look.

Off to an immeditably chic start, Sofia began her look with a tonal foundation, pairing light-grey track pants with a matching T-shirt to create a clean, polished base. Unlike leggings, which cling to the frame, track pants lightly skim, creating a softer silhouette with plenty of movement. Adding definition, Sofia then knotted a striped jumper around her hips.
