Definately want to get some of the armour tank tops, but I'm still overweight so will wait until I've lost it first. Don't think I'd wear it to a gym either cos I think you'd just look like a spanner.

At £60 a top, i think ill stick with the £6.50 ebay specials.

Thanks go to mcelliot for this (cheers Marcus!), but if anyone wants a bargain. . .

These tops are fantastic for the money, with the blue ones just gone on offer, I've just ordered five haha to add to my collection, plus a couple more microfibre towels for the gym!

Link fail. It just goes to a blue t-shirt.

Thats what im doing, im ordering one from them to find out the sizing and then take it from there. Ill get another one in the next size down and see what thats like.

Few of the trainers at the gym took the piss out of this one i wore last night:


But i ignore them on gym fashion as they wear gym shark style clothing

You really wore that?!

I think if I was in a gym and someone was wearing that, I would have to try and get a sneaky pic to show my mates.

Do people wear cartoon stuff because they think it's cool or ironic? Or are they reformed nerds?

Nope i just made it up for sts and giggles.

I got the DBZ one, not that i know anything about DBZ as everyone has the UA Superhero ones/its something different/i cant wear t-shirts to the gym as i sweat alot so find the performance tops to be nicer to train in. Plus i got it for a bit of fun for when im training. I also tend to not be colour coded either

[Digger]

I wear a black one of these for my cardio segments

and a poly T shirt goes on top such as the Decathlon one linked earlier for the rest of the session. Most of my T's are solid colours. None of this Look At Me garbage posted above

Yep. I do. Not one of the 'muscle bro' racer back ones, but a regular Adidas training vest.

I find a t-shirt inhibiting when lifting.

[AndStilliRise]

Primark vests, yes. They make look awesome and that makes me feel like a man.

on entering the mens changing rooms today I witnessed a porky young chap standing on his head up against the wall. He wore his Y fronts. I actually recoiled with a WTF. I attempted a phone snap but i think he was wise to it and rejoined reconnected feet with floor.

I do, or an old t-shirt. I'm not fussy and will wear most things as it gets all sweated up anyway.

Seems vests are not en vogue though from some of the posts above!

Looks that way. But I don't get it - if someone's in a t and pouring with sweat wouldn't they be more comfortable and find movement easier in a vest?

Why does the guy look a ?

For the same reason as why someone would choose to wear a 'cartoon' top

Which is?

[Pvapour]

plenty of times i wear a vest, cooler and far more confortable for me, dont give a st what anyone else might think from a 'fashion' perspective, tts.

Chances are most who criticise vest wearers are those who 'would' look stupid in one, just like the jealous types who criticise supercars & their owners

I'd actually wear those to work.

Do they keep their shape well?

I imagine so. I've only had them a few days. It's a 100% polyester top, of which I have far too many, but they all seem to retain their shape very well, a couple have been 30deg washed a few times and are fine, whereas it can be very hit and miss with cotton tops.


ETA - oh they come out maybe a half to a whole size smaller than average I'd say, so pick one size up perhaps, material is quite stretchy.

Tee's are too uncomfortable for me. I like my basketball tops, vests or compression tops. They all have their uses dependent on weather and my routine that day. Will be running in runinthedark tomorrow evening, so it'll be compression all round there.
