Sometimes it’s difficult to get motivated to work out. When all you have to work out in is a grubby cotton tee and old running shorts it’s even harder. So we’ve grouped together five of our favourite workout gear brands to get you in the mood to work up a sweat!
#1 ONZIE YOGA
Quirky, colourful and oh-so-comfortable Onzie yoga gear adheres to the company vision “keep your practice challenging, and your wardrobe simple!” Made in Southern California with ultra hi-tech fast drying yet super flexible (and flattering) material, Onzie gear is perfect for yoga of all kinds, pilates and more as well as being pretty affordable.
#2 OISELLE
Oiselle (pronounced wa-zell) is a running apparel company designed by a woman runner, for women runners. Like the word the brand name comes from (French for “bird”) the gear hopes to inspire “That sense of flight that most runners know and love when the legs go fast and the heart goes free”. Simple, comfortable and stylish, this brand is great for runners disappointed with the garish and limited choice of gear they usually find in the store.
#3 LULULEMON
What list of stylish workout gear would be complete without a shoutout for Lululemon? This now well known brand makes gear for running, yoga and even just for lounging around. In fact, their clothes are so stylish you’ll find yourself wearing them at the weekend for lunch with the girls and feeling good about it!
#4 SOLOW SPORT
Sleek minimalist style meets sporty functionality: this is the ultimate workout gear brand for the glamorous girls, you know the ladies who wear red lipstick while they work it in the gym and look good doing it!
#5 BROOKS
For running purists, Brooks is one of the best for apparel. Bright, stylish colours, a variety of practical yet flattering styles and a scientific approach to what works and looks great at the same time make this brand a firm favourite when looking for gear to pound the pavement in.
So what are you waiting for? Now you have no excuse, time to lace up those sneakers and look good while you work up a sweat!
