    non of my workout stuff has been very expensive!! a teashirt or those vest tops are fine have got no boobs anyway and dont appreiciate the elasticated support in the boob area although I do have some like that.. leggings are cheap most of mine not over £20.. sainsburys are doing cheap workout stuff at the moment my leggings from there were £11 look good too funky colour although they are a smidge too big ;)

    I love Sainsbury's for this reason! I know vanity sizing is a bit bad, but it's great to fit into a size smaller than I really am.

    My local Sainsburys has a really rubbish collection of leggings/bottoms - Being 5 ft 10 makes it hard to buy trackies that aren't ankle swingers but even their leggings came up pretty short :neutral_face: Definitely appreciate the vanity sizing though ;)

    I usually wear a bralette bikini top and booty shorts while working out. It is comfortable but I have no specific store that I buy from. I keep searching for newer stores online.

    All over. I'm a workout fashionista - Sweaty Betty (very expensive, but gorgeous), Athleta (reasonable and will take back stuff that gets gunked up, even after a year), Zumba, runlikeagirl.com (fantastic skorts), LuLuLemon (not so fond of their colors), TJMaxx, Legz for Days (leggings online), Asics, Capezio

    Hi, I use knee length lycra legging from Asda ( £8 and they wash and tumble dry really well) t shirts from sports direct.

    I don't spend a lot on my workout clothes, the only two things I invest in are runners and sports bras.
    Most of my stuff is old soccer shorts and shirts, or cheap leggings and tanks from walmart or second hand stores.

    i go to tj maxx, target and kohls.
    I've had cruddy experience with "cheap" stuff so i invest.

    and shoes. I spend the money on the shoes because it's cheaper than a dr visit

    I tend to buy pricier stuff. I love workout gear and would wear it constantly for its comfort, how my body looks in it, and the fact that it wicks so well. Most of my outdoor gear is merino wool for its warmth, moisture and sweat wicking abilities, much of my indoor stuff is lululemon, Victoria's Secret, or brands from Mountain Equipment Coop. I buy probably 2-3 pieces a year and don't hesitate to get my mil to alter if I have shrunk out of things or I sell them on used sites and replace as needed.

    $4.99 sweatpants and the free t-shirt from the only 5K I ever ran (three years ago). I look like hell on a cracker and I don't care... almost nobody ever sees me at 6am anyway.

    I like the tuff athletic pants from Costco, tops & pants from Walmart for low price & it's wick away.

    I usually shop at TJ Maxx or some online stores for burnout tanks (which are my favorite to lift in.)

    Goodwill! Most have a rack of "Active Wear" that includes dri-fit tops, shorts, yoga pants, long pants, warm up jackets etc. Very good condition on most stuff and sometimes new items from local stores. Of course selection varies and it helps to check back frequently. I've bought all my workout clothes there and hubby does too. Prices can't be beat.
