Shia LaBeouf’s body-hugging, neon workout ensemble: flattering or awful?

Shia LaBeouf

These are photos of Shia LaBeouf on Saturday with Los Angeles. Shia wears workout gear as his girlfriend, Mia Goth, wears her usual crop top and skinny jeans. Our photo agencies say Shia ran the Los Angeles marathon that morning. Maybe he ran a marathon, but it wasn’t the official LA Marathon. Was it another marathon? Who knows. Most of them happen on Sundays (with one exception being Utah Valley, which caters to the surrounding religious community). Maybe Shia ran a different race distance. He did the LA Marathon in 2010. Perhaps he’s gearing up for a return.

You may notice how Shia is looking particularly colorful. This is not his usual style. I’m sort of mesmerized by the sea green and purple ensemble he’s chosen. Those blue and pink Nike shoes look like the women’s variety. Are they? I’m not judging too much. I wear men’s running shoes because they last longer and usually aren’t neon. Shia’s outfit is unexpected to say the least. He looks healthy here. Grubby, but healthy. His outfit may be an eyesore, but at least he’s not disturbing Broadway or taking a leak in public.

Shia’s working hard to repair his image. He’s often spotted carrying the Big Blue AA book or simply doing domestic things with Mia. He gets papped a lot, mostly because the photogs are waiting to catch an outburst on camera. Dude loves to wear his Fury boots, which is interesting because (so far) he’s been absent from the film’s promotion.

    it’s wayyyy too early for this

    • LIVEALOT says:

      lol

    • Carrie says:

      I really think there is something wrong with his head. I really do. He has some mental problems.

      • BratB says:

        Agreed, he’s like a few days away from chewing off his own hand type crazy, I don’t know how to feel about that or his outfit.

      • homegrrrl says:

        I actually love this outfit…my ex drug addict uncles all had some version of this get-up in the 80’s…it read “i’m gonna work out now, I’m a changed man “. Mandex. Yeeeeesss!!

      • JenniferJustice says:

        Me too. The first thing I thought when I saw those leggings and shoes is “is he bi-polar or schixophrenic?” I’m not being mean, but people with these disorders who do not take their meds tend to dress odd and think it’s normal. That’s usually one of the first signs that lead friends and family to know if a loved-one went off their meds.

  3. Chris says:

    Saw the trailer for Fury today. It looks pretty good and should get his career back on track.

    • FLORC says:

      It was never his acting that was why his career fumbled. It’s how he acts outside of acting that has been his downfall.
      He can be great in films and still alienate people enough that no one will want to work with him. Regardless of talent.

  4. lower-case deb says:

    how can his junk stand such tightness?
    i feel uncomfortable just seeing the pictures.

    maybe it’s what separates the plebs and the Alphas? i see pictures of skinnies like here, Duchess Kate’s, or Theroux’s, and i made a lunge for my muu muu.

  5. Mia4S says:

    Ewwwww, please never show that picture again.

    His absence from early promotion is conspicuous but appropriate. His issues have issues.

  6. NewWester says:

    The shoes caught my attention first. Certainly are colourful!!!

  7. AG-UK says:

    The shirt/leggings and shoes.. oh my v bright. I just cannot with him never got the appeal.

  8. Aussie girl says:

    He is sure a weird cat that one. His girlfriend looks albino but with dyed hair. She could do with an eye brow pencil perhaps…? That work out/running out fit is defenetly an eye opener, if I saw any old guy wearing that down the street or even at the gym, I would double take.

  9. MrsBPitt says:

    Why is he always so dirty looking..yuck…and it certainly, looks like he got dressed in the dark and put on his girlfriends workout outfit….Something is so OFF with this guy….

  10. Lucy2 says:

    Aw, sweet- he was just trying to find an outfit that made his girlfriend’s look better, guys! It left him no choice besides purple leggings.

  11. Beatrice says:

    I’d much rather see Jon Hamm in those pants!

  12. Dany says:

    i hate the colours for sports clothing. Men get all the “normal” colours like blue, black, brown, green. We women can choose between bright pink, purple, red, orange, turquoise. I´m happy when i find stuff in green (neon or not).

    I really hate it. My hiking boots have purple parts and seams, while the male version is in brown.

    • Kellybean says:

      Really? I find the opposite true – at least here in Canada. I had to order a pair of neon yellow running shoes from the states because I couldn’t find any here. And I have been looking for a neon yellow shirt to wear with them and can’t find any here. There are tons in the men’s sectio but I wear a small or xs in women’s clothes so I can’t even buy a man’s shirt in the smallest size. I may have to make a trip down to the states soon, just for that purpose.

      • Audrey says:

        I buy most of my shoes in the US because the Canadian selection is pretty awful usually.

        I did see some nicely colored stuff at sears(their new workout gear line is actually pretty nice, I normally wear lulu but this stuff feels nice, has lasted well and is a much better price) and winners.

      • Bridget says:

        Under Armour tends to have lots of bright options, Nike does frequently, as does Brooks. If you went solely by my running clothing you’d think ‘neon’ was my favorite color.

      • FLORC says:

        How can you run in men’s shoes? Maybe it’s my foot or how I land in a stride, but it feels like a completely different fit. Like mens pants vs womens pants. You can get the same size and cut, but mens pockets will forever be larger than womens. And mens jeans that sit at their hips will sit at my waist.
        Just different fits.

        Bridget
        I passed a runner with LED shoe laces. If you like being High Vis or to spark a laugh with a fellow runner I highly recommend!

      • Bridget says:

        @FLORC I go reflective vest and headlamp when I’m running in the dark. It makes a big difference in visibility, especially for cyclists. I highly recommend investing in them for any runner that goes in the dark (and that includes early AM) – because even the brightest clothing looks dim in the dark.

      • FLORC says:

        Bridget
        I didn’t mean for night time running. Just everyday wear. Although, this person was a just before dawn runner.
        Personally, headlamps gave me headaches. I wear my hivis vest and light up wrist bands, plus any reflective strips on shoes, pants/shorts, etc..
        The laces are a novelty.

        Ofcourse, this is all if i’m running in the dark. early morning is my time for outdoors.

    • Bridget says:

      Where are you ordering stuff? There are always plwnty of neutral options whenever I’ve looked.

      And personally, I like bright. I like to be bright and visible and fun.

  13. jinni says:

    Considering his recent public behavior and the people behind Fury gunning for an Oscar nod, they probably politely told him that his presence during promotion wasn’t necessary and that he should focus on getting himself healthy. In other words, they don’t want him tainting their Oscar race.

  14. decorative item says:

    I would never wear it, but Iike a little crazy in the world so it’s fine by me.

    • solanaceae (Nighty) says:

      Apparently!!!

      *major sigh*

    • lower-case deb says:

      what is that? the design and stitching is so odd. looks like someone just sewn a bubble wrap envelope to the front.

      packaging for the safe transportation of the family jewels?

    • mia girl says:

      Kiddo – gah!!!. It was just too early in the morning to click on that link.

    • Lucy2 says:

      A little warning, please! I might need to take the morning off due to trauma now.

    • Lady Macbeth says:

      Kiddo!

      Links like that should be posted with a warning! Lol

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      You left a brain stain. There will be retribution.

    • solanaceae (Nighty) says:

      Mind bleach to everyone.. Here you go girls…. I have gallons of it right here…. Help yourselves….

    • maybeiamcrazy says:

      I should have taken the warnings and stay away. *sigh* Thanks for the mind bleach Nighty.

    • Isadora says:

      Looks like a jockstrap to me. And I think that’s understandable, you know… after a certain age things tend to get saggy and it would be highly uncomfortable to have them swinging around, I guess. Women wear sports bras all the time, so why not.

      • Kiddo says:

        lol. I don’t think the jock strap was the issue, but rather the neon spandex pants.

      • FLORC says:

        The brightness does make it hard to see anything else. Good for him though. Getting to the gym is the hardest part.

  15. solanaceae (Nighty) says:

    Is he being advised on fashion by Kim K???
    Here, you can find sports clothes in all colours, thank God…

  16. Minty says:

    He’s wearing her clothes… how sweet.

  17. cari says:

    WTF? My husband wouldn’t even wear this outfit on halloween…if he was dared…with lots of money….and drunk as sh!t. I am certain the pants and shoes are from the ladies department.
    He is one weird dude.

  18. Snazzy says:

    OMG HAHAHAHAH

  19. flavia_deluce says:

    He has his eyes closed in all four of these pictures. …

  20. Frida_K says:

    The girlfriend looks like a Joad and he looks like he’s channeling Richard Simmons. I can’t take this so early in the morning, I just can’t.

  21. bigbowood says:

    Actually, the LA Marathon is in MARCH (registration opens October 1). Shia’s just dressed like an aerobics instructor from the 80’s.

  22. Becki says:

    Definitely wearing women’s workout gear!! I love neon for myself, but not for my man…. he looks absolutely frightening!!

  23. Lori says:

    I do think he has some pretty serious mental health issues. And it certainly looks like he’s working on getting his sh-t together. So he gets a pass on the fugly work out gear. Actually the bod looks pretty banging under that gear. The beard is troublesome though……….and I like beards

  24. Bridget says:

    There’s no way Shia ran any race at all – the lack of bib, medal, or even a drop of sweat are all telltale signs. That is not a man that just worked out.

    • FLORC says:

      Bib numbers and medal might not be his thing. He could have left them or tossed them. Once out of the crowd mine go in my bag. And this shot is taken later in the day?
      For me the giveaway is how he’s walking and lack of engorged leg muscles.

      Post race you’re sooo sore! You (or rather I) make the mistake of curling up on a clean spot of lawn with your space blanky for a needed 30 minute nap before hitting the beer tent to carb up and relax the muscles with some hoppy IPA. His legs look too thin here.

      • Bridget says:

        Bibs aren’t really optional for races, since otherwise the assumption is that if you have no bib you’re running bandit. And of course timing chips are usually on them. But to me, the biggest sign that he didn’t run anything is the fact that his clothes are pristine and he’s not sweaty at all! Honestly, it looks like he threw on that getup to just run a few errands.

      • FLORC says:

        Bridget
        I think there’s a misscommuncation here.
        I’m assuming he tucked his big away or pinned it to a waist strap and just unclipped it. Not that he never had a bib to begin with. And timing chips can be in bibs, but I find they’re more common attached to shoes now. I’ve walked away with the chip still attached. There’s usually an option to return by mail without getting charged for it.

        And the lack of sweat.bib, etc.. is all assuming he’s currently walking away from the race. If this was an hour later none of that would matter. His legs would still be swollen though and that’s why i cited that. That’s the only part that can’t be a matter of time.

  25. maria1981 says:

    wow, what a nice surprise! healthy and fit, shia have a lovely figure.

  26. kri says:

    If Richard Simmons had a wet dream, this would be it.

  27. Racquel says:

    They are women shoes, I own the exact pair.

  28. Bob Loblaw says:

    I see uglier outfits than this everyday all over town, it’s colorful but no worse than anyone else in their workout clothes. He looks like he’s in good shape, at least he obviously exercises, unlike the rest of the country wearing exercise clothes to shop, and dine and do everything except exercise in them. I am fine with people wearing whatever they like but if you want to look good, leave the exercise clothes in the gym where they belong, yoga pants included, they are utilitarian clothes and rarely flattering to anybody.

  29. Source says:

    Consider me visually scarred for life.

  30. St says:

    I’m sure he wore that on purpose.

  31. Dolly says:

    AC Slater needs to stay out of Kelly Kapowski’s closet.

  32. jwoolman says:

    Is there a reason people are snarking on his girlfriend? Did she rob a bank? Run over a baby? Other?
