Adidas Women's Ultra Tech Cap, $20, shopadidas.com. Like a fan with a brim, this hat is ventilated to let hot hair out and cool air in.

Isis Sports Bra, $35, and briefs, $17, isisforwomen.com. A seamless, chafe-free design in a quick-drying material means even your crevices will stay fresh.

New Balance Saba shorts, $45, newbalance.com. Made of ultra light, breathable fabric and with a waistband so comfy you can barely feel it, these shorts are the next best thing to jogging in the nude.

PecheBlu flip-flops, $59.99. pecheblu.com. With their supportive, cushioned sole and padded toe straps, these flip-flops are great for all-day wear. Plus, the antibacterial footbed will put the kibosh on stinky-shoe syndrome.
