My lovely bride, Rackie515 here on MFP, and myself must have purchased 1000 dollars worth of workout clothing over the past 2 months in ****'s.
I have bought all Under Armor clothes. Socks, shorts, shirts, compression underwear, new sneakers, everything.
I feel like a walking advertisement for UA. LMAO
Wifey has bought even more. LOL. She doesn't care what brand she buys, as long as she likes the colors, she buys it.

I live in workout clothing! My wardrobe is more workout/dry fit shirts, shorts and sweats than anything else. UnderAmour, Nike, Reebok, etc.

$130 pair of Saucony's and sports bras cost about $60 in my size. I'd run out of money before I ran out of options.0

I have so much Nike and Under Armour...a friend thought I was sponsored by UA. lol...0

Wifey and I recently bought entirely new wardobes. The work out gear was the only thing left. I have become a shopaholic. I actually enjoy going shopping now. Lord knows, my wallet is taking a beating, but we are having a blast.0

LOL, you expected replies within twelve minutes of your original post? Patience, Padewan.
I love workout gear.
My trail running shoes and my cycling shoes have a coveted spot on a glass shelf in my room. My workout clothing has a place of honor in my closet. No folding or drawers for them; hangers only. And no wire hangers. Uh-uh.
And for my first BIG goal accomplishment, my motorcycle boots have a place of honor.0 -
I wonder how many people will get the WIRE HANGER comment? LOL0

I am a huge fan of Old Navy's active line!0

Wow! My workout clothes generally consist of an old t-shirt and rolled up sweatpants. I love to see all the fashionable gear at the gym despite often feeling like a schlub in comparison.0
-
Yes, I have become a little lululemon, bench, UA snob...
Becuase I am close to my goal I am only now just getting a wardrobe, but I love their stuff.
Yes it costs more but it is WAY better quality and fits nicer.
Tonight I finally splurged on a real pair of runners from the 'running room' and I really want a new gym bag, but I can't seem to find the perfect one for me.
But no, I get it!0 -

It is much more fun becuase generally most things you put on actually look good
Also, who has wire hangers anymore, come on now!0 -
I have my Nike dry fit and reebok compression stuff... That being said I have the following
2 puma compression tank tops
1 Nike dry fit tank
3 compression shorts (of the short short variety)
And two pairs of shoes
Pretty much enough to wear during my workouts without having to do laundry all day0 -
hahaha ...i wont say i'm addicted but i'm definitely on my way.
I actually managed to find a couple sweet items at an awesome gently used store called Talize this past weekend. 1 workout tank and 2 sport jacket type thingys ...none of which appear to have been sweat in lol. $22 for all 3 lol0 -

I was basically the same way. Whatever shorts and t shirt were on top in the draw, got worn. But since I hit my goal, I have been shopping more. And the sorriest thing I could have done for my wallet, was walk into ****'s Sporting goods. LOL0 -
i LOVE getting work out clothes!! i love getting new work out pants like the stretchy spandex kind.0

Here is how crazed I have become.
1. I actually do my own laundry after 22 years of marriage, because I don't want ANY of my clothes getting F'd up.
2. Wifey and I were in D!ck's and I was looking for compression shorts. I wanted these certain compression shorts in funky colors. 30 bucks per pair. I wanted one pair of every color. 6-7 pair. The store only had 2 pair my size. I didn't buy them. Wifey wondered why. I told her I wanted all the same style in different colors. So, she says, what are you gonna do. I said, I am going home to order them online. I walked in the door, jumped online and ordered 7 pair of compression shorts at 30 bucks a pair. Years ago, I would't have spent 30 bucks on a suit. Today I spent 30 bucks for a pair of underwear.
LMAO. I think I turned into some sort of shopping fool.0 -

I LOVE when I am in the gym and the girls are in the stretchy spandex kind. LOL0 -

Sports bras in all colors
Tank tops
Long sleeves
Shorts
Pants
Light sweaters
Socks0 -
I love my lulu! Doesn't help that I walk by one every day at work, always seeing the new colors. I would live in the stuff if I could, but sadly have to dress like a real grown-up at work

Wifey was looking at gym shoes to MATCH her outfits tonight. I said, only half jokingly, "When we start buying gym shoes to match our workout gear, we have gone toooooooooooo far!!!!!"0 -
Yes!! Haha! I just bought some more today, oops.0

God yes... have so much lululemon gear its not even funny...0
-
I live in my lulus....don't even wanna think about the thousands of dollars I have just in lulu clothes in my closet!0
-
$9 legging & my $5 workout top, $40 pair of Rivers barefoot runners......
Nah.... for me that's enough.0 -
At this point you'd think I'd have stock in under amor, but I didnt have any money left after all the stuff I bought. I am thinking about just getting UA tattooed on my forehead at this point. Maybe they would pay me in clothing for being a walking billboard.0
-
Yes, others like me! Haha. I'm ADDICTED to sports clothes! I've probably spend at least $1000 the last 2 months...
I love Reebok, Nike, UA etc.. People at my gym probably think I'm sponsored by Nike lol. It's so much fun to shop fitness clothes when you work out a lot and you see yourself becoming fitter! I wear fitness clothes more than normal clothes now!
And of course everything has to match in colour.. Shoes, bras, tops, pants, even my wrist band hehe.
Pink and neons baby! :bigsmile:0 -
I wear cheap shorts and t-shirts to the gym because otherwise my female admirers keep interrupting my workout... Not because I'm a poor student, I swear
