Elements of a can't-miss hiking outfit:
Choosing an ensemble for a hike depends several things—including the intensity of said hike, time of day, and the weather. So making sure you know when and where you're walking can help you pick the best 'fit. You wouldn't go on a winter hike wearing a crop top and bike shorts, right? Right.
Pick the right shoes.
Before simply slipping on a pair of sneakers, make sure you know how intense your hike will be. Will you be climbing up huge hills at a high elevation or are you taking a stroll on a trail in your neighborhood? Each of these situations will probably require different footwear! For more vigorous hikes, you'll want to make sure you have a solid pair of hiking shoes or boots that can handle tougher terrains. If you're just taking an elevated walk, though, get yourself some comfortable walking shoes.
Layer up.
Temperatures change throughout the day, so having multiple layers you can put on or take off is key. REI recommends focusing on three layers—base, middle, and top. Your base layer is essentially underwear that's breathable and keeps moisture from making you uncomfortable as the hike goes on. The middle layer is what can ensures you don't get too cold (especially during winter hikes). The top (or outer) layer consists of pieces like coats and rain jackets. Of course, this can vary depending on how hot or cold it is outside—so keep that in mind!
What looks to avoid wearing when hiking.
If you've ever had to walk a long way wearing jeans, heels, or super thick clothing, you likely already have a good idea of what to avoid when getting dressed for a hike. Temperatures and terrain will ultimately play a huge role, but it's best to generally avoid anything uncomfortable, itchy, or hot. (Or, if you're going to be outdoors when it's freezing out, make sure your clothes are insulated.) This is where layering will really come in handy.
It's also a good idea to skip the cotton clothing (it has very little insulation and holds onto moisture) as well as denim (which can be super uncomfy and get really heavy when wet).
With these tips in mind, take a peek at all the cute hiking outfits and clothing below—and get ready to feel v outdoorsy.
1
A pink half-zip and leggings
Shine Oversized Anorak
If you have brunch plans with your friends following your hike, you'll want to wear a stylish-yet-functional set like this one to take you straight from mountain trails to mimosas. And if there's rain in the forecast, this bb will keep you nice and dry, too!
2
A cropped half-zip and bike shorts
Bike shorts
A pair of short bike shorts will give you all-day comfort on a hot trail while still looking fashion-forward. Pair it with a cropped pullover and matching baseball cap to make it edgy but still keep it practical.
3
A matching three-piece set
MoveWell Arroyo Legging
During those chilly early morning hikes, you'll want a lightweight jacket that's warm but still easy to carry around when the sun comes out in full force. This three-piece set will keep you covered and comfortable no matter the conditions.
4
A bomber jacket and boots
Point Reyes Bomber II
A windbreaker is a must for transitional weather when it's windy and maybe slightly cold out. This one has multiple pockets for additional storage and a stow-away hood that makes it perfect for all kinds of conditions. A black cap and heavy-duty but stylish hiking boots will keep you prepared.
5
A crop top with a longline vest
Zip Front Active Vest - Stretch Woven Black
You don't even need to bring a pack when you've got a vest with as many compartments as this one. It's got inside pockets with closures, outside pockets with flaps, and a drawstring waist that makes it a cute and practical addition over leggings and a top.

A short one piece
NSW Icon Clash One Piece
Take all the guesswork out of picking out a hiking outfit and go with a onesie instead. This sleeveless one with shorts will keep you cool on hot days and looking cool every day.
7
A shell jacket with a sweatshirt
All Weather Jacket
Overcast skies are no fun, but you'll be prepared in case there's a downpour with this rain jacket featuring a water-tight membrane and a three-layer durable construction. Layer a half-zip underneath and throw a sweatshirt around your waist (just in case).
8
shorts with a long-sleeve shirt
Rectrek 3" Short
Outdoor Voices' Rectrek shorts are super popular with hikers. They have a fun wavy print with an adjustable belt, pockets, and a water-resistant fabric. A long-sleeve shirt and hiking boots let everyone know you mean business.
9
A tracksuit for trails
Black Summit Track Jacket
A tracksuit isn't just for the track! A windbreaker set is ideal for a windy walk on hiking trails, too. These are great layering pieces to bring along on a camping trip or a quick afternoon hike and everything in between.
10
Cropped pants and a crop top
Woven Hike Pant
Hiking, but make it fashion. As if the matching sports bra and sneakers weren't cute enough, these hiking pants also feature a belt of the same color that's inspired by a climbing harness. So clever!

Moving at a faster pace up those hills? Then you'll need some bike shorts, a breezy tee (or tie it up to keep it cute), and some trail running shoes. Congrats on your endurance!

If it's a casual hike, you can't go wrong with a ribbed tank and drawstring cotton shorts for a more low-key stroll.

A long-sleeve loungewear set
Self Care Lounge Set
If your favorite hike is more like a nice, leisurely stroll, you want to go with some comfy athlesisure. This drawstring shorts and long-sleeve shirt combo is perfect for a light hike on a breezy day.

How cute is this tri-colored anorak and matching tennis skirt?! Simply remove the jacket when you get warm and tie it around your waist for that gorpcore vibe.
19
Compression leggings and crop top
Midnight Compressive High-Rise Legging
Wear your normal cropped workout top with matching leggings and sneakers, then add a hat to block the sun and thick, chunky socks to protect your heels from inevitable blisters.
20
A little logo set
Sport Tank
The Danzy logos on this matching set give it a preppy look, but don't be fooled: The cotton is breathable and the spandex gives it the perfect amount of stretch. It also features a fun rainbow stripe down each side for a splash of color!
