In order to dress like a health goth one must acquire a certain amount of black activewear, such as these health goth essentials.

A health goth is a new generation of goths that enjoys a healthy lifestyle while still wearing all black and being depressed. This might seem contradictory but staying positive all the time isn’t for everyone.

In order to dress like a health goth draw inspiration from the following classic black pieces.

Bottoms

1. Leggings

The KORAL High Rise Lustrous Leggings in Black ($88) have that futuristic liquid shine that health goths love. This is because they are shiny and black like the screens on their mobile devices.
