Christmas is fast approaching but before you panic shop, sit back and relax as we’ve done all the hard work for you. From the best sports bras to leggings, figure-hugging jackets to weighted bangles, we’re rounding up all the very best activewear and fitness accessories to gift active mums this season. Chosen with every budget in mind, we wouldn’t blame you if you decided to keep these all to yourself.
What is the best brand for athletic clothes?
This is totally up to personal preference. The best brands for athletic clothing and accessories will depend on the type of workout you (or your gift recipient) is doing, your budget and style. While it’s completely subjective, a few of our Women’s Health favourites include Lululemon, LSKD, Stax and Skims.
How do I choose good activewear?
When you’re selecting the best activewear, keep a few things in mind such as:
- Fabrication including thickness, stretchability and construction quality
- Activewear specifically designed for certain activities such as moisture-wicking qualities for high-intensity workouts
- Design style, patterns and practical features like pockets, zips or hoods
- Budget – while more expensive doesn’t always mean better quality, it sometimes pays to choose something that costs a little more
- Trusted reviews from other shoppers or friends and family
