15 Perfect Gifts For the Peloton Lover in Your Life
We’ve always been big fans of Peloton’s fitness instructors and content. The platform has proven that an at-home sweat session doesn’t have to lack intensity, and truly offers something for every kind of exerciser. Whether you love indoor cycling, strength training, running, yoga, barre, rowing, or anything in between, there’s a Peloton class for you. And one thing we probably don’t have to tell you is that the people who love Peloton really love Peloton. During the holiday season, that makes it much easier on you. Gift them any one or two of these gifts for Peloton lovers, and rest assured that you’ve helped make their whole season brighter (and sweatier).
The Peloton lover in your life could definitely use a great pair of headphones, a hook for their cycling shoes, and a refresh of their Peloton merch. If they’ve been doing the workouts from the Peloton app, this might even be the year they get a really big present in the form of the original Peloton bike. Keep reading to shop our picks for gifts for Peloton lovers, and here’s to a new PR.

Under Armour Sideline Squeeze Water Bottle ($9)
When a Peloton user is riding, they don’t want to stop and undo the cap of a water bottle. That’s why this sleek water bottle is so useful for Peloton lovers, and makes for a great stocking stuffer. We love the side grips on the bottle, so it’s much less likely to slip out of sweaty hands.
PS Neoprene Dumbbells ($7-$20)
Whether they’re indoor cycling or doing barre class, they need these dumbbells. There are lots of different weight sizes to choose from, including 3-, 5-, 8-, and ten pound weight options, so they’ll have choices if they want to go up or down a few pounds. Plus, if they’re strength training, there are heavier options available as well.
Apple AirPods Pro 2 ($190, originally $249)
You can’t go wrong with these headphones. They make the perfect gift and are a workout necessity — especially if your Peloton lover’s machine is in a common space, and they don’t have the luxury of listening to their workout out loud. It’s kind of like a gift for everyone. Plus, the AirPods Pro 2 just got an upgrade, with plenty of new hearing safety features.
Saucony Women’s Hurricane 24 Running Shoes ($160) Peloton Tread fans will love these lightweight sneakers. They have great support, plush cushioning, and come in seven different cute color options.
TrubliFit Metal Shoe Rack for A Peloton Bike ($25)
This shoe storage hanger is so brilliant. No more tripping over your cycling shoes! It comes with two shoe hangers and a slots for dumbbells, so you will always have a place for your essentials.
Ozaiic Yoga Socks ($14, originally $20)
Peloton has introduced Pilates and barre classes to the roster, and we love the lower-impact yet super-effective classes. These grippy yoga socks will help your loved one stay rooted during these Peloton workouts. We like the straps on these, because they feel like ballet slippers.
MoveActive Workout Towel Soft Pink ($20)
Working out without a sports towel is almost not possible when you’re taking a Peloton cycling class. This cute towel is soft, lightweight, and fast-drying. It’s a great option for mopping up sweat and hangs easily off bike bars when you’re not using it.
lululemon Wunder Train High-Rise Tight with Pockets 25″ ($138)
These Lululemon leggings from Peloton are great for all kinds of sweaty activities. They’re breathable but still hold you in, and have side pockets! Whether your friend is sweating it out on your bike, logging miles on the treadmill, taking a strength class, or all of the above, these are the leggings they’ll end up reaching for over and over again. Luckily, they also hold up well in the wash.
Shimano RC1 Cycling Shoes ($100)
Once they’ve got a Peloton bike, the number one necessity is shoes. These indoor cycling shoes are comfortable, easy to clip in, and stay put. We like the sleek all-black style, and the fact that they’re under $150.
Fellow Carter Cold Tumbler ($35)
Featuring a splash guard and ceramic coating, this tumbler can keep liquids cold for over 18 hours and is spill-proof. We also love the straw for easy sipping. The periwinkle purple color way is super cute too, but if that’s not your friend’s style, it comes in 12 different color options.
2XU Fluid Tight Compression Leggings ($90) Another legging option: this compressive pair is made for the sweatiest, most intense rides. The have no side seams and are ultra sweat wicking, both of which help minimize chafing.
Dagne Dover Landon Carryall Bag ($150)
Whether they ride their Peloton at a gym or have a dedicated space at home to work out, it’s nice to have a bag filled with all the basics. This carryall style will hold all their Peloton-related essentials.
Peloton Cadent 7 Inch High Rise Bike Short Purple Punch ($48)
If they love a pop of color during their workouts, they need these bike shorts. These are some of Peloton’s best-selling shorts, and it’s easy to see why. They’re lightweight, sweat-wicking, and — it has to be said — make your butt look great. Plus, serious Peloton fans love to rep the gear, and this is a subtle way for your loved one to do so.
Peloton Guide ($95, originally $195)
The Peloton Guide is the latest tech innovation from Peloton, and it’s so unique. With the Guide, the Peloton person in your life can turn their TV into an AI personal trainer. It can connect them to their favorite strength trainers, so they can see themselves on the screen, and it can also track their movement and give personalized class recommendations. If they’re into the strength classes, they’ll love this.
Peloton Bike ($1,445)
This is the product that started it all. If your loved one loves using the Peloton app, gifting them the Peloton itself is the ultimate present. They can ride, as well as take strength, yoga, stretching, and other cardio classes from the bike. This will be one present they’ll never forget.
