A sweatsuit is a suit that has a thick material usually made of cotton and polyester. A sweatsuit can be worn on many different occasions, but is commonly associated with sports. Sweatsuits are also worn during physical exercise, hence the "sweat" part of the name. Sweatsuits were most worn in the '70s and '80s, but are still popular today. They help take in the sweat from the sweat glands under your armpits. Sweatpants take the sweat from your sweatglands around your leg areas.
