I know absolutely nothing about going to the gym or working out and I need some help choosing some actual good quality sports wear.

The clothes I currently have don’t seem suitable at all for exercise in that theyre not particularly flexible, breathable or lightweight.

I’m mainly looking to lose weight and improve cardio fitness as I haven’t done proper exercise in a very long time.

My priorities are durability, longevity and breathability. I’m not bothered about fashion brands unless they can do all three of the above and I don’t mind spending a little more money to get something thats good quality.

I’m in the UK but if you can point me towards the good stuff, even if it’s not available in the UK, it’ll help me pick similar stuff!

Thanks very much for any help in advance!

Cheers!

    I’d argue that unless your goal is to look good at the gym, there’s isn’t much need to bother with getting pricier/higher quality clothes. Some of my most comfortable gym shirts cost less than a quarter of my “objectively” higher quality shirts.

    Light and breathable gym shirts doesn’t cost much and there isn’t much comfort to gain by going pricier either. It’s mostly about the looks in my experience.
