Known for mixing activewear with practical sneakers, the petite actress stepped out in a coordinated green workout set paired with Nike footwear that reflected the comfort-first approach she often favors away from red carpets.

The outing came shortly after Hale spoke with Shape magazine about strength training, Pilates, and developing a healthier relationship with her body—an attitude reflected in the athletic looks she regularly wears around Los Angeles.

For the post-workout outing, Lucy wore a matching green LSKD crop-top-and-bike-shorts set, keeping the focus on comfort while letting her Nike M2K Tekno sneakers anchor the look. The combination reflected a styling formula she has repeatedly returned to: streamlined activewear paired with chunky lifestyle sneakers.
The American actress flaunted her shoulders, abs, and legs in a $49 LSKD Limitless seamless crop top that’s engineered to be super soft and flexible. She paired it with matching $49 Base bike shorts in Forest Night color.
Elevating her athleisure, the Pretty Little Liars star accessorized with two dainty gold necklaces, a ring, and multiple hoop earrings.
She shielded her eyes behind a pair of hexagonal sunglasses and carried a lip balm, her iPhone, and an Oventure Cheetah O key ring in one hand. Wearing her signature short tresses in a half-up style, Lucy added a swipe of pink lipstick and a hint of blush to her look.

She then completed her athletic outfit with Nike M2K Tekno sneakers in the Black Rose colorway (style code CI5772-001), originally released on May 17, 2019, with a $90 retail price.
A lifestyle reinterpretation of the Nike Monarch, the M2K Tekno features layered leather overlays atop a textile base, accented with metallic silver detailing, soft pink highlights, and bright green touches. The chunky silhouette is finished with a cushioned Phylon foam midsole and a molded heel counter for added stability.
While no longer available from Nike, the Black Rose colorway continues to surface on the resale market years after its 2019 release.
As of June 2026, StockX sales recorded between 2022 and 2025 generally ranged from about $110 to $140, with prices spanning from $91 to $204 depending on size and availability.
The most recent recorded StockX sale was $128 in June 2025. While the Black Rose colorway remained active on the resale market several years after its 2019 release, the lack of recorded sales over the following year suggests availability and demand may have become more limited.

The lifestyle runner paired soft coral mesh with pastel accents and Nike’s signature oversized Air unit in the heel, adding a subtle burst of color to her otherwise monochrome athleisure look.
Although no longer available through Nike, the colorway has continued to surface on the resale market. As of June 2026, recent StockX sales ranged from $143 to $144, while historical transactions between 2021 and 2025 reached as high as $375, reflecting stronger demand during the sneaker’s early resale years before prices gradually settled closer to retail.
