5 Tracksuit Mistakes Most Guys Make And How to Fix Them

Let’s be real, tracksuits have made a massive comeback. They’re no longer just gym wear; they’ve become a stylish staple in modern men’s wardrobes. But with great style comes great responsibility. Even the most fashion-forward guys sometimes make simple mistakes when it comes to styling a tracksuit. The good news? Most of these slip-ups are easy to fix.

Whether you're aiming for that effortless streetwear look or just trying to keep things casual and clean, here's how to avoid the most common tracksuit mistakes and step up your game, without trying too hard.

1. Wearing an Ill-Fitting Tracksuit

The Mistake: Baggy pants that drag on the ground or jackets that hang like a blanket, sound familiar?

Why It Hurts Your Look: Fit is everything. An oversized tracksuit can make you look sloppy instead of relaxed.

The Fix: Opt for a tapered fit that follows the natural line of your legs and a jacket that sits snug around your shoulders. A good rule of thumb, if it feels like a blanket, it’s probably too big.

👕 Try this: ETN’s Executive Label Tracksuit balances comfort and structure perfectly.

2. Overdoing the Logos or Graphics

The Mistake: Logos everywhere, on your hoodie, joggers, shoes, cap, and even the socks.

Why It Hurts Your Look: Too much branding can overwhelm your outfit and distract from the clean aesthetic you're going for.

The Fix: Choose one logo feature or print piece, and keep the rest of your outfit more subtle. Let your tracksuit be the statement, not a billboard.

🧢 Pro Tip: Subtle design elements like those in ETN’s Red Luxury Tracksuit offer a bold look without being loud.

3. Not Considering Fabric Quality

The Mistake: Choosing cheap, shiny polyester that clings in all the wrong places.

Why It Hurts Your Look: Low-quality material doesn’t just feel bad, it looks bad. It loses shape quickly and can ruin your entire vibe.

The Fix: Look for breathable, high-quality fabrics like cotton blends or suede sweat suits that offer comfort and structure. They're perfect for both lounging and stepping out.

🌟 Tip: For warm weather, lightweight jogging suits are your best bet. For cooler days, go with brushed fleece or cotton.

4. Ignoring Color Combinations

The Mistake: Wearing colors that clash or don’t suit your skin tone or the occasion.

Why It Hurts Your Look: Even a stylish track suit set can flop if the color combo is off.

The Fix: Stick with monochrome sets like all-black or navy, or play with soft neutrals like olive or grey. If you want to mix and match, make sure at least one piece is a solid base.

🧩 Example: Match beige joggers with a white zip-up hoodie for a relaxed look, or black joggers with a red top for bolder streetwear energy.

5. Not Accessorizing Smartly

The Mistake: Thinking tracksuits are “just loungewear,” so there’s no need to style them.

Why It Hurts Your Look: You miss the opportunity to elevate your outfit and make it street-ready.

The Fix: Add clean sneakers, a sleek cap, a minimalist watch, or even a layered jacket. Accessories bring balance between athletic and stylish.

🎒 Quick Add-Ons: A crossbody bag, white sneakers, or a bomber jacket can make your outfit go from gym to grab-a-coffee ready in seconds.

Final Thoughts: It’s Time to Own the Look
