Over the past years, if you had ever set out on a shopping mission, looking to buy high quality, fashionable workout clothing or general activewear then you might have arrived at the stark realization – that there just wasn’t any. Women everywhere had to make their pick from one of only two options; either pay through the nose for some high end outfit that you would be afraid to break a sweat in it’s so expensive; or,frustratingly, settle for little more than rags that would take out a lot of the fun from their fitness journeys.
Well, somebody’s prayers have definitely been answered, in the form of these active fashion product lines that strike the middle ground perfectly:
Fabletics
Co-founded by the superstar beauty Kate Hudson, Fabletics’ mission is to provide trendy, high-quality activewear, to motivate and inspire a healthy lifestyle; all this at prices that won’t leave you wishing you could burn your credit card up.
Old Navy
These guys may not spring immediately to mind when it comes to fitness wear for women but bear with us. They’ve come up with an impressive new collection going under the tag: Built for Spring and Summer, which holds some exceptional items including their double-dip Go-Dry tanks and tops, workout shirts, and sports bras. Go ahead then and check them out, you’re not likely to regret it.
