Reinvigorate Your Workouts with These 7 Stylish Activewear Brands
When your workouts are tough, you need durable and performance-ready activewear that doesn’t hold you back. Unfortunately, durability often means boring, so finding workout gear that’s fashionable and functional can be hard. We’ve rounded up seven of the best fashion-forward activewear brands for women that will keep up with just about any workout; plus, most are female-founded and strive to help women feel empowered both in and out of the gym.
Yunoga
For affordable leggings that rival far more expensive activewear brands (according to the stellar reviews), these Yunoga pants are a great combination of soft, durable, and budget-friendly. While some less expensive leggings can be see-through, these are opaque enough to pass the “squat test.” So you won’t have to worry if you’re at the front of the room during yoga. At this price, you can buy one in each color to build a solid base for your workout clothes.
Alo
Alo’s goal is to spread “mindful movement,” and their clothing reflects that. If you like having lots of fit options for pants, tops, and bras, Alo’s line won’t disappoint. There are many different combinations of length, pattern, material, and stretch to choose from.
You can also easily search by activity since we all know that your barre class requires very different attire than a weekend hike. With fashion-forward options made by a team living their intention to bring more mindfulness to everyday life, you can’t go wrong with pieces from Alo.
Beyond Yoga
Dedicated to an inclusive activewear line, Beyond Yoga features models and styles that will work on every body type. If you need extended sizes (up to 4x), this is one of the only brands where you’ll find all of your favorite styles and prints.
They’re also committed to community activism, production transparency, and generally making women feel comfortable in their skin. With lots of neutrals (and new prints released frequently), you can build an activewear wardrobe that will get you through any workout.

Ultracor
If you love the extra motivation that comes from colorful and fun workout gear, then look no further. Ultracor is your go-to shopping spot. Not only are the luxury clothes designed with interesting and unique patterns (where else can you find mermaid scales or cherry blossoms?), but their manufacturing technology means you’re getting precision items every time.
Marketing themselves as a “space where fashion and fitness converge,” Ultracor uses the best technology to make their clothes soft, durable, and fit for any intense workout you undertake.
Glyder
The female founders of Glyder wanted to offer women clothes that didn’t restrict adventure or impose boundaries, either mentally or physically. As they say themselves, these clothes are “designed for women who never say the words ‘I can’t.” So you can expect versatility in every piece.
Almost everything is made with four-way stretch and moisture-wicking super-soft fabric, so you won’t have to worry about staying comfortable for an entire day. And with lots of fun prints and many different pieces to choose from, you’ll easily find the Glyder staples that help you reach your goals.
Sweaty Betty
This London-based brand was inspired by its founder, who wanted “to make it cool to sweat.” So she teamed up with her husband to begin offering ethically made, fashionable, and functional workout pieces for women.
With 99% of Sweaty Betty’s team made up of women, these clothes are tried and true from the gym to your living room. You’ll be supporting a company working towards sustainable production, as well. Whether you’re looking for basic black or rainbow glitter, these pieces will make you want to get out there and sweat!
Senita Athletics
If you’re looking for an affordable line that offers a lot of options, try Senita Athletics. With everything from leggings to maternity loungewear, this brand consistently earns high marks for its customer service and pieces that combine durability with affordability. Since it was founded by a pair of athlete sisters, you can be confident that the pieces will actually get you through your workouts!
