hi,

I'm in the UK and struggling to find somewhere that sells women's workout tops that are baggy/comfortable and affordable.
all the ones I can find are tank tops and I want something baggy and long enough to cover my bum and belly!

any advice would be fantastic!
thanks,

    I wear men's Tshirts and yoga capris. I don't like baggy pants for the gym, but I don't like tanks either.

    I wear men's under shirts. They are light and you can get a pack of 5 for not too much. I don't recommend baggy pants while working out, they get in the way. Once I fit into size 10's (40's EU or I think it's 12's UK) then I am totally getting myself one of those cute work out tanks with the bra built in.

    I wear a footy shirt or a couple of t-shirts that I bought a few sizes bigger than I normally would. Have you looked in Sports Direct?

    I get mine from Wiggle or BAM clothing (bamboo workout clothes). Sweaty Betty has some nice things but I think they are over priced.

    I have a couple of dri-fit Nike vest tops which cover my belly & bum, and I am fairly tall (5ft 10"). I buy all my sports gear from Sports Direct. Their stock tends to be last year's styles, but at half the prices as in normal sports stores. You may have to root about a bit in store, or you can buy online.

    I work in new look and we have some really good baggy tshirts in our basics/central range. I usually wear those or my boyfriends tshirt to work out in.

    My absolutely favourite workout top is a dhb corefit one. They are cheap, flattering and absolutely brilliant at not getting sweaty.

    You can get basic Men's tees for £3 on the sports direct website :smile:

    I have the same issue!! The last thing I want is my arms wobbling for all to see!! Not cool!! I buy mans polo shirts to workout in as they dont have high collars and they are longer than female polo shirts! The net is a good place to buy them at a decent price!

    THis is the story of my life.

    I'm in Ireland and it's a struggle to find LOOSE fitting gym tops to cover my belly. IT's my worst area so why would I want tops that stick to it and make it worse than it already is?!!!!!!!

    I have to say, I find it hard to get loose fitting tops. I have 2 that I got from the Puma website but they don't have anything similiar this season.

    I just trawl the websites (Nike, Adidas, Puma, Reebok) til I find something I like then order in bulk!

    I feel your pain!

    layer up. I usually wear a long sleeved top, that's extra long from Sainsbury's with a long vest top over the top. I think it's more flattering with layers.

    I would like something new too, so will be checking back on here for more ideas. x

    Both look loose fitting. Might be ordering some of them myself!
