This summer you can throw it back to the 90s and beyond with crop tops, shoes, sunglasses, and other running gear that has retro vibes.

Rabbit Sun’s Out, Tummies Out

retro running gear
Crop tops are back! Sport this cropped tank (and show off your hard-earned abs) in a relaxed fit and quick-drying, lightweight fabric, perfect for warm-weather runs. $45, runinrabbit.com

Goodr Pineapple Painkillers

retro gear
Classically shaped frames (called “The OG”) paired with a pastel color palette bring back the essence of the ’90s while a bounce- and slip-free fit and polarized lenses will keep you running—stylishly—for miles. $25, goodr.com

Stance Uncommon Run Tab W

retro running gear
These neon socks, which could have come straight off “The Endless Summer” poster, will keep your feet happy for hours—the fabric fights bacteria and odor, wicks moisture and keeps feet cool on your (practically) endless summer runs. $14, stance.com

Ciele Athletics GOCap Standard Seawall

retro running gear
This uber-cool cap is not only lightweight, moisture-wicking, reflective, sun-protective and packable, but (best of all) its bright color-blocking gives off a rad “Fresh Prince” vibe. $40, cieleathletics.com

Janji W’s 4-inch Transit Tech Shorts

retro running gear
Feel the comfort of loose and liner-less shorts (much like our favorite old-school gym shorts) with updated fabric and features—that means a water-repellent finish, four-way stretch and fast-drying fabric and a zippered side pocket for your phone. $68, runjanji.com

Reebok Classic Nylon SP

retro gear
These ’90s-inspired kicks are sweet. While they’re designed more for the iconic look and style than performance, they work for shorter, easier runs thanks to a breathable OrthoLite insole and DMX foam midsole. $75, reebok.com

Timex Ironman Classic 30 Mid-Size Resin Strap Watch

retro running gear
Ahhh, this watch takes us back to simpler times with its acid-wash jeans–like print on the strap and simpler workout features such as a stopwatch, countdown timer and 99-lap counter. $55, timex.com

New Balance Athletics Windbreaker

retro running gear
Bring back this classic 1990s look for run commuting or staying warm before an early run—a roomy fit and color-block pattern are updated with a more sophisticated color palette (read: not neon) and poly woven ripstop fabric that’s both wind- and water-resistant. $95, newbalance.com
