Decent quality fitness gear at a reasonable price? (UK)

Looking at the Under Armour website and curious about whether I can get decent quality fitness gear for a lower price? £40/50 per leggings and top seems pretty steep.

I roam around TKMaxx for cheap leggings/tops. Can usually get pretty good deals. Sports bras I tend to pay full price for ShockAbsorber in Debenhams, becase fit is so important there.

sportsdirect.com have great offers on most of the time. I get loads of stuff off there, leggings can be as low as €6/£4.50 depending on the sales!1

I've had good luck with Amazon for some stuff.. although any time you buy online, sizing can be an issue.0

Amazon is normally my go-to, but the quality can be pretty bad in terms of the material being very thin.. If you have any specific outlets, please link me to them?0 -
sports direct for me too.
It lasts long enough and is cheap enough to replace when needed.2 -
Most of my running gear is Karrimor from sports direct. 2 pairs of cropped leggings for £183

I have found that the hanes and Russell brands tend to be better quality than the off brand Chinese produced fitness gear.1 -
I agree with sports direct. I find its actually ok quality but cheap enough to replace as and when needed as well. I have also got some really nice running leggings from amazon but its so hit and miss so only tend to buy if very cheap0

Also Aldi and Lidl have some good stuff at very reasonable prices - just not the trainers for me as I need more control than they have for running - other than that another vote for sports direct x0

Another Karrimor fan.
I used to spend a small fortune on running shoes until I tried their Tempo (Both the trail and running as I need both). £30ish and I get the 500 miles from them before they become dog walking or driving trainers.
I was spending over £100.
Not as fussed with their running bras the stitching seems to come away at times. Leggings and running shorts have always been fine.
The running socks are the best I've ever bought at any price.
The running laces have been really good as well.
Running pockets are rubbish the velcro goes too quick. I prefer Mountain warehouse for that and running belts/camels.

I don't do Sports Direct, but the kit is reasonable.
Most of my gear is Inov-8 from Wiggle.com, or their own brand dhb range.0 -
TK maxx - all the nice brands for 30-50% off. Or Decathlon, they have nice things too for not much. Definitely not Sports Direct just hate the shop.1

Hey..... I am a major Under Armour Fan.... Big time I have been told. I take trips down to Portsmouth south east coast to gunwharf quays to the UA shop. Its last years kit, but at amazing prices.0

There's usually an off on.
Good quality as well

I wear the Karrimor stuff from Sports Direct as it's cheap but the USA Pro stuff is gorgeous if you want to shell out a bit more.1

Gymshark leggings are just under £40 but the quality is amazing! They are also squat proof which is a bonus!1
-
They often have under armour flash sales at Sportspursuit I have brought a few things from the site

Tesco, H&M and Sports direct for me.
A treat for myself was new gym leggings and shorts!0 -

I go to TKMaxx and Cotswold. I refuse to shop at SportsDirect because of their Victorian/abusive employment practices.3
