Are you itching to move, but realizing your same old sweatpants and T-shirt won’t cut it? Wearing the right workout clothes—ones that function (a proper, comfortable fit plus breathable fabric) but also are fashionable—certainly helps to keep you motivated as you sweat. But with so many choices, where is the best place to buy workout clothes for women in their prime? Good news: We gathered six sites that offer you so many options, you’ll be strutting and sweating in high style in no time.
Athleta
With an inclusive eye for models (the company often showcases its wares on women age 50-plus), Athleta certainly knows how to dress every woman at every age. The company’s extensive catalog of workout clothes features items for any activity you can think of—yoga, swimming, tennis, running, and more—but you’ll especially love theEmpower II Train Bra A-C for $59.00. It features performance fabric that is lightweight and breathable and unzips from the front. You also get free shipping for purchases over $50.
Carbon38
While the prices are on the higher side, the site’s breadth of chic designs can’t be beaten. Full-support bras, like the Carbon38 Longline Zip Front Contrast Bra, are abundant, and the trendier items from known brands like Nike and Adidas can be found in this curated online store. If you’re feeling frisky and fashion-forward from head-to-toe, Carbon38 carries several matching sweats sets, like the Off White NYC Doodle Duo Knit Bra. Done in a colorful print with a playful feel, it is a scoop neck sports bra with a racerback silhouette for light to medium support.
Lululemon
Ask just about any woman you know: Lululemon remains one of the best places to buy workout clothes. Technical performance and innovation are cornerstones of the company, so every fabric and finish is picked for the utmost wearability during your workout sessions. Case in point: The comfy, sweat-wicking Essential Tank Pleated sits at the hip with a not-too-loose-or-tight fit and won’t stink or lose its shape. If you need to cover up, the lightweight Define Jacket has a figure-flattering fit and is made with Luon Fabric that’s breathable, sweat-wicking, and stretchy with the perfect amount of give.
Outdoor Voices
Amassing a cult following isn’t easy, but Outdoor Voices managed to do so, cementing itself as the best place to buy workout clothes. OV eschews theatrics like busy prints in exchange for function, turning out pieces that are 100-percent about comfort. A great bra choice is the Circuit bra. It is made in sweat-resistant SuperForm material that stretches and sculpts without losing shape, while elastic straps and an adjustable back clasp help customize your fit.
Amazon
Yes, Amazon can be hard to parse through, but the site is powered by reviews by real women like you—and those reviews can go a long way in making smart workout clothes purchasing decisions. With more than 45,000 reviews and 4.5 stars, FITTIN Racerback Sports Bras has become a hit with larger-busted women of all ages, and it starts at just $9.99, the price can’t be beaten. If you’re daunted by searching through Amazon’s extensive offerings, go directly to its extensive Core 10 line, which promises workout gear that won’t break the bank. We’re betting on THE GYM PEOPLE Thick High Waist Yoga Pants, which, at less than $30, comes in sizes up to 3X and, as one reviewer put it, is “not see-through”—a definite plus.
Gap
The great thing about GapFit is that you can wear your clothes and feel good about them. Gap is working harder than ever to make its business more sustainable by setting bold goals, designing new programs, and partnering with others to change its industry for the better. A favorite Gap leggings for me is the High Rise Recycled Power Full-Length Leggings. This legging is made with 79% recycled polyester. Less waste in the world. More great clothes for you.
