Our Top 10 Best Places to Buy Fitness Apparel
Finding deals on quality activewear can be a challenge. Our experts share their 10 favorite places to shop for athletic clothing!
Looking to up your athleticwear game, but don’t want to break the bank? No sweat! Our team of experts has rounded up the top ten places to score the best deals on fitness apparel. Whether you’re a fitness fanatic or just living life in leggings (hey, no judgments here!) you’re sure to find something on this list to fit your style and budget.
Walmart
Walmart has seriously improved its athleticwear gear in recent years with the debut of its Athletic Works line. Walmart Athletic Works offers good quality athleisure and athleticwear for seriously great prices. The brand consistently receives great reviews online for its surprisingly good quality. Our editor Christina recently picked up these Athletic Works shorts for $8 and they’ve quickly become her favorite shorts to run and lounge in. Men can also find great deals on activewear, like this Fleece Crewneck Sweatshirt for $11.98.
Kohl’s
Kohl’s FLX activewear line is a great pick for lululemon-inspired pieces at a much lower price point. For example, this FLX Affirmation Square-Neck Tank reminds us very much of the lululemon Align Tank, but it costs $25.60 instead of $68. The Kohl’s FLX men’s line also has some really great pieces, like this FLX Textured Hoodie which looks much more expensive than its $52 price tag.
Under Armour
We love shopping for Under Armour deals, so we often hit the Under Armour Outlet for the biggest savings. We often find great sales on hoodies, leggings, and shoes in this section. For example, a recent sale dropped the price of this UA Fleece Hoodie from $50 to $18.74. We also found this men’s UA Armour Fleece 1/4-Zip dropping from $60 to $27. The UA outlet is typically the best place to find great deals on Under Armour apparel.
Proozy
Proozy is a great online retailer for Reebok deals and deep Adidas discounts. We also find great brands like Allbirds, The North Face, and 90 Degree by Reflex. Keep an eye on our main deal feed, because we often get exclusive deals for our readers. Recently, our readers were able to use an exclusive code to score three of these Allbirds Long-Sleeve Tees for $27 with free shipping. For men, a recent code of ours dropped the price of two of these Adidas hoodies to just $17 each.
lululemon
We love the high quality and hip aesthetic of lululemon activewear, but we can rarely justify spending full price for their pieces. Instead, we often shop the “We Made Too Much” section for deep discounts on their popular styles. Shopping in this section takes up to 60% off the original prices. For example, we recently spotted these Align Leggings dropping from $98 to $49. These men’s City Sweat Joggers drop from $118 to $79.
Amazon
Amazon is one of our favorite places to find great deals on activewear. We love Amazon for finding lululemon dupes for far less than the real thing. For example, our editor Christina raves about these Colorfulkoala Buttery Soft High-Waisted Yoga Pants as a dupe for the lululemon Align leggings for less than $25! We’ve also had great luck with the CRZ Yoga brand on Amazon. These men’s CRZ Yoga Linerless Workout Shorts cost $28 but feel like a much higher-end brand.
Joe’s New Balance Outlet
For the best New Balance deals, our go-to place to shop is Joe’s New Balance Outlet. This online retailer offers authentic New Balance gear for up to 70% off the regular prices. These women’s NB Essentials Stacked Fitted Shorts were originally listed for $34.99, but Joe’s has them for $11.24. For men, this Q Speed Jacquard Long-Sleeve drops from $54.99 to $29.99. Shipping usually adds $9.99, but our readers can bag free shipping when they use our exclusive promo code BRADSDEALS during checkout!
Athleta
Athleta is another great place to shop for high-quality activewear. Unfortunately, their pieces often carry a high-end price tag to match. But we often find great deals lurking around their sale section, sometimes up to 60% off the original prices! We recently found these Balance Flare Pants dropping from $99 to $29.99. We’ll often find stacking discounts for this store around the big holidays like Labor Day and Cyber Monday.
GymShark
Since its founding in 2012, GymShark has exploded as one of the hottest activewear brands on social media. We love the quality and fit of their trendy pieces which tend to be much more moderately priced than the higher-end activewear brands. We often find great deals in their sale section year-round, but the GymShark Black Friday sale is a must for us. During Black Friday, you can expect to see discounts of up to 60% on the original prices. Last year our editor Christina picked up these Animal Adapt Leggings for $22 and they have become one of her favorites.
Nordstrom Rack
For activewear lovers, shopping at Nordstrom Rack is a great way to save big on name brands like Nike, 90 Degree By Reflex, and Sweaty Betty. We especially love the Rack for the Nordstrom-exclusive Z by Zella brand. You can pick up this Z by Zella Cozy High-Low Cardigan for $29.95. Similar styles sell for around $100 at higher-end stores. Nordstrom Rack is also a great place to find deals on athletic shoe brands like Brooks, Hoka, and On Running.
