We’ve shared our picks for men’s and women’s athleisure pants that work at work and women’s tops to cover you in a boardroom and through casual Friday. Here are our top picks, best sellers, and top-rated athleisure shirts that work at work.

Airing Light Short Sleeve Shirt, $98 at Lululemon: Sweat-wicking and quick drying, this versatile and professional button-down works in any season or office setting.

Commuter Tech Polo, $92 at Rhone: Four-way stretch, perforated venting, and odor-resistant construction meet moisture-wicking, quick drying, and wrinkle-resistant in this perfect polo who asymmetrical seams make for a stylish and unique look.

Hybrid Denim Shirt, $88 at Hill City: Yeah, you read right: denim. Get the classic look with built-in a cooling cotton-polyester blend fabric that is moisture-resisting and quick drying. Designed to stretch with you more than traditional denim, this work shirt won’t stop you from flexibility.

The Cotton Slim Fit Shirt , $50 at Everlane: This basic cotton button-down is elevated with a lightweight construct, a design you can move around in and built for breathability.

World’s Coolest Shirt, $88 at Betabrand: Hard to top the name but let’s try. The shirt packs hundreds of thousands of micro-vents designed to help the shirt fully air-dry within an hour (after being soaked in a spring shower, for example). It’s a light, breathable, poly-mesh blend fabric that should keep you nimble at work and light on your feet.

Howe 2.0 Button Down, $125 at Mizzen + Main: Classic design and a great short collar are married with moisture-wicking, light, and four-way stretch fabric that is wrinkle-resistant. The shirt comes in many styles and each one checks off top style for the office and evening ahead.

Skyline Shirt LS Oddysea, $99 at Arc’teryx: In many ways, this Canadian outdoor brand is reshaping the button-down here, from a unique design and cut to outdoor durability on indoor-styled apparel. You’re getting a breathable fabric that’s designed to protect you from UV radiation isn’t an everyday feature.

Bonterra Performance Shirt, $98 at UNTUCKit: Aiming for a look that doesn’t have to be pushed into your pants, the Bonterra is wrinkle-free, moisture-wicking, anti-odor, stretchable, and classically styled in a nylon-spandex blend.
