Twinning is Winning! Shop These Matching Sets for Friendship Day 8/1

Jul 29, 2021

Did you have one half of a shiny gold BFF necklace with your first-grade bestie back in the day? While you probably lost your half of the “Be Fri” or “St Ends” charm not too long after the chain started to tarnish, maybe you still have that elementary school ride-or-die in your modern-day MySpace Top 10. Or perhaps your tribe is made up of those forever galentines you met in high school or roomed with in college.

Whatever the case, Hibbett | City Gear is your new fave spot for shopping something a little more grown-up, and a lot more stylish, than those flimsy Claires friendship baubles we formed our first friendships with. This National Friendship Day, August 1, shop matching toe-to-head fits from Hibbett | City Gear and celebrate with your BFFLs in style.

The Lowdown on Coordinating Sets

These aren’t the outfits you’ll find in those old Polaroids your mom took back in the day. You know the ones — where you and your sibs sported coordinating overalls and unfortunate hairstyles held perfectly in place by 2 cans of Aquanet. Casual fashion essentials like matching shorts sets in a fierce leopard print or a Nike matching set in a tonal color are a huge improvement on those childhood trends. This is a sorta-post-quarantine world, after all, where everyone gave up uncomfortable styles in favor of pants that can breathe and tops that are actually comfy.

Fetching Fits for Friendship Day

Here are three of our fave matching set looks for you and your amazing friends:

She a Real Bad Babe

Unleash your wild side with this very on-the-nose women’s adidas matching set. The all-over leopard print suits any body type, and you can’t go wrong with accents like a hat, a bag and adidas Originals Superstars. After all, you both look goodt, “with a T on the end.”

You a Star, You Can Touch the Sky

Celebrate your curves and your friendship, a la Lady Lizzo, with a matching ensemble that features a Juicy Couture tee concealed beneath a blush-colored Juicy Velour track jacket and cycling shorts. Complete the look with a hair toss (and some Teleties), check your nails and some UGG Fluff Yeah slides. We guarantee you and your BFF will feel good as hell.

Here’s Your Chance to Do the Dance

Even if a new “Space Jam” movie hadn’t landed, we’ll always stan for the Jumpman. Go all 90s retro with this cool color-blocked Jordan matching set that’ll have you and bestie TikTok-dance-ready.
