Velour tracksuits in emerald, red and black velvet
Soft velvet, the kind most people just call velour, cut into a zip hoodie with long sleeves and a pair of matching pants. That’s the whole velour tracksuit. We make it in emerald, red and black, and it isn’t tied to any season.
Wearing the hoodie and the pants apart
You don’t have to wear it as a set every time. Unzip the hoodie over a white tee and jeans for a Saturday at the market. On a rushed morning, pull the pants on with any plain sweatshirt. Sunday, zip it all back up.
Black is the easiest one to split. Velvet never quite looks like gym clothes, and with ankle boots on a low heel the full black velour tracksuit is fine for dinner in town. By day, chunky white sneakers and a short jacket.
Emerald, red or black for the week you’ve got
Train at seven. Four hours in your seat, then a windy walk from the station to the car. That’s a black day, and you’ll want the hood up for that last part, a long puffer or a wool coat on top, and nothing pinching while you sit.
Red is for when family is coming over for the holidays, or for a bright fall afternoon out of town. White sneakers, a black leather jacket, a plain bag with no decoration. Pull your hair into a ponytail and the hood lies flat down your back.
Emerald stands out on a gray October street. We’d wear it with white sneakers, gold earrings and a milk-colored bag, plus a short camel jacket if you’re walking around downtown. It’s just as good at home on a day off, when relatives drop by and you’d rather not change. Taking the green one on a weekend trip? Pack the set whole and stop thinking about outfits.
Deep green is practical on the road, too. A dusty train seat is kinder to dark green than to anything pale. If you only want one velour tracksuit for travel, that’s the color we’d pick.
Fit, from your hips and your bust
Size this velour tracksuit by both measurements, hips and bust. We sew it from XS to XL. Stuck between two? Send our manager your numbers and we’ll suggest one. In a cool spring, a straight coat over the red set is plenty.
Other fabrics are on our main tracksuits page. Skirts and tops that match live with the matching sets, and softer things for a night on the sofa are under loungewear.
Frequently asked questions
Why do you call it velvet if it’s velour?
It’s one fabric with two names. We list it as velvet. Velour is just the name you’ll hear more often.
Can the set go in the washing machine?
It can, inside out and at 30 °C or cooler. Skip the wringing and hang both pieces up to dry, well away from the radiator.
Will the hood bunch up behind my neck?
Not if your hair’s in a ponytail.
Can I iron out a crease?
Keep the iron off the pile. Steam it from the inside instead.
