When it comes to workout gym gear, the right clothes will help you maximise your gains. Aside from the aesthetics of it all – men are more likely to hit the gym in clothing they feel good in – there are also practical considerations like fit, breathability, moisture-wicking fabric, stretch and versatility. This selection of mens gym gear has been carefully chosen to meet all these criteria.

Brands like Fabletics are leading the way with their range of activewear that combines style and performance. Its collection of gym shorts and joggers, long sleeve T shirts and hoodies features both trendy designs and fabrics and performance-focused details like moisture-wicking fabrics and four-way stretch. Their collection even includes a collaboration with comedian Kevin Hart.

Another brand making a big name for itself is Lululemon who’ve taken their expertise in yoga gear and run with it, developing a full range of training joggers and shorts, gym t-shirts and hoodies in breathable and sweat-wicking materials. Their relaxed fit joggers for instance are soft and comfortable but also have a dynamic design with four way stretch and a softened waistband.

Pangaia is a newer brand that’s all about sustainability and innovation. Their gym wear is crafted from sustainable organic and recycled fabrics including a lightweight bio-based nylon made from castor oil which has been treated with BioWick to absorb and wick away sweat. Their range of mens gym shorts are ideal for running and HIIT training with their mesh venting, no tag construction and non-chafing seams helping you get the most out of your workout.
