Men's jogging trousers

Which men's tracksuit bottoms to choose from Foot-Store?

The choice mainly depends on how you use them every day. For training or warming up, a tapered fit in technical material like the Nike Tech joggers is a safe bet: it moves with your body and dries quickly. For a more casual use, a straight fit in fleece works well both at home and out and about.

Tracksuit bottoms or trousers: what’s the difference?

Tracksuit bottoms are identified by their elasticated or drawstring waist, patch pockets, and tapered or cuffed ankles, designed for movement. The classic trousers, also included in this selection, offer more structured cuts in canvas or denim, with a fixed waist and button or zip closure. Both can be worn daily, but the first prioritises comfort and ease, while the second resembles a traditional wardrobe piece.

When to take advantage of the best prices on men's joggers

The prices of men's joggers fluctuate according to the commercial periods of the year. The Black Friday and the end-of-year holidays are often a chance to snag a good deal, followed by winter sales and then the French Days in spring. Outside of these peak times, several pages allow you to regularly check for the best offers: the lifestyle deals, the lifestyle clearance, and the lifestyle sales. The lifestyle new arrivals allow you to spot recent arrivals as soon as a new collection comes out.

Frequently asked questions

What size of men's joggers should I choose?

The size mainly depends on the fit: a tapered model fits closer to the body than a straight model in the same indicated size. If you’re unsure between two sizes, it's best to check the size guide specific to each brand, as the fits for Nike, adidas, or Kappa don’t always adjust the same way from one line to another.

Can a Nike Tech jogger be worn outside of sport?

Yes, it's actually one of the most common uses today. The technical material and tapered fit of the Nike Tech easily pair with a sweatshirt or jacket for a city outfit, without the trousers losing their comfortable movement-friendly aspect.

What’s the difference between joggers and tracksuit bottoms?

The term tracksuit historically refers to a complete set, matching jacket and trousers, whereas joggers are worn as a standalone piece, freely matched with a different top. In practice, both terms are often used interchangeably today to refer to the same type of trousers.

How to care for fleece joggers?

Washing at a low temperature and air drying limits pilling of the fleece and preserves the elasticity of the waist. It's best to avoid high heat tumble drying, which can shrink the material faster than a regular wash.

Can joggers be worn with smart shoes?

Yes, a straight or tapered fit at the ankle pairs well with smarter shoes, provided the rest of the outfit remains simple. A looser fit, however, is better suited to sneakers or a sporting pair.
