As the cool breezes start to rustle the leaves and the days get shorter, it feels impossible to find the motivation to complete a winter workout. Between the intermittent showers, holiday parties, and family obligations, there never seems to be time to fit in an entire workout routine—that is, until we put on our favorite cold weather workout clothes. Just slipping into the warmth of these California-made clothing items makes the Sunday scaries and the seasonal sadness feel a bit more distant. All of a sudden, time opens up and taking a jog around the block or lifting weights at the gym feels more like a hobby and less like a chore. So, before you entirely give up on the idea of working out when it’s cold outside, give these winter workout outfits a chance.
