"I'm always heading to the gym either from meetings or work so this bag works great with an outside compartment for my sweaty clothes and one inside for my laptop and work papers. "

"Out of the minimalist shoe movement, these are my favorite. I still find that I get mild support out of these and they weigh next to nothing."

"These are my first step to any workout. They have a great comfortable fit."

"When running, one of the worst things is having to constantly readjust your headphones. This pair never fails to stay where it's supposed to be."

"I like the lightweight material. It keeps you warm but also allows you to be agile."

"My face lotion of choice after a long workout. It also provides protection with a light SPF."

"  This shirt is marketed as an under-layer shirt for outdoor use but I love to work out in it. It's engineered to be highly breathable while also keeping body warmth inside. I find that it encourages me to sweat more which is good for cleansing the body." 

"I love these socks for running. They absorb the right amount of pressure without feeling bulky in the sneaker."

"These are lightweight and versatile. They don't have any pockets so its an excuse to only carry the minimum necessary: phone and headphones."

And while we're accustomed to seeing the New York City-based model in Polos and blazers, he spends nearly as much time in workout gear. "It's important to stay fit and healthy in my profession," he says, "So I like to mix up my workouts between running, biking, hot yoga, basketball, tennis and calisthenics. I find that if you are always alternating the ways in which you get a solid workout then you never get complacent in your fitness goals." Our kind of guy. Here, Pickett lets us see where his fashion and fitness worlds collide — inside his gym bag:
