When I did competitive martial arts in college, our team uniform consisted of an old-school track suit from Adidas, and that’s when I first came to know and love Adidas wind pants. We went running in those pants, worked out in those pants, and wore them out to competitions, and those things held together very nicely, and felt comfortable throughout.

The nice thing about Adidas wind pants is that they’re wind and rain resistant. That means even if the weather isn’t what you expected, you’ll have no problem working out with these pants on. I remember that when I was training, the coaches would make us go running no matter what the weather conditions, like this one time when they made us go running in the pouring rain that had us soaking in minutes. The pants that we were wearing weren’t completely water proof, but they definitely helped protect us from the elements, and they dried up quickly right after.

In addition to offering wind and rain protection, Adidas wind pants are also really comfortable. Made from soft polyester peached twill, these pants are so comfortable that I’ve found myself wearing them around the house, and even going to sleep in them, like makeshift PJs. The elastic band of the wind pants keeps them fit and secure, and yet they feel roomy enough to move around comfortably.

Adidas wind pants also look pretty cool, with three vertical stripes along the side, and the Adidas logo near the hip. They’re definitely not something you’d wear to the prom, but they look nice enough to wear out without making you look like you just came from the gym. Finally, these pants also have pockets, which is just an essential for me (I hate workout pants without pockets!).

Anyway, if you’re looking for a new pair of workout pants that are light and comfortable, yet resistant to the elements, Adidas wind pants are the perfect fit. I know my pants lasted for years, and I’m sure yours will be with you as you workout for years to come.
