Key Features

Performance Fabrics

We've selected materials that handle sweat and movement without clinging or restricting. The fabrics dry quickly between sets and maintain their shape through regular washing. Stretchy blends move in every direction, from overhead presses to deep squats, without riding up or losing form.

Thoughtful Fits

Body-fit styles sit close to the skin for layering and high-movement activities, while training fits offer a bit more room without excess fabric getting in the way. Seams are positioned to reduce irritation during repetitive movements. Hems stay put whether you're reaching overhead or bending low.

Durable Construction

These tops are built to withstand frequent wear and washing. Reinforced stitching at stress points means they hold up session after session. The fabrics resist pilling and fading, maintaining their appearance through months of regular training. Quality construction means you're not replacing worn-out tops every few weeks.

Versatile colors

Classic black and white options form the foundation of any workout wardrobe, mixing easily with any bottoms you own. These neutral tones work for those who prefer a streamlined look and want tops that pair with everything without thinking twice.

FAQs

How do women's gym tops fit?

Our body-fit styles are designed to sit close to the skin for a streamlined silhouette, while training fits offer a bit more room through the body. Both cuts are made to move with you during exercise without restricting range of motion. If you're between sizes or prefer more coverage, sizing up typically works well. Check the product descriptions for specific fit details on each style.

What material are these workout tops made from?

Most of our women's gym tops feature polyester and elastane blends that offer stretch, breathability, and quick-drying properties. These synthetic fabrics are chosen specifically for their performance during training – they wick moisture away from skin, maintain their shape through movement, and resist fading with regular washing. The stretchy composition ensures tops move in all directions without losing form.

How should I care for my gym tops?

Machine wash your tops in cold water with similar colors to maintain fabric quality and prevent fading. Avoid fabric softener as it can reduce the moisture-wicking properties of performance fabrics. Air drying is best for extending the life of the elastane fibers, but if you use a tumble dryer, choose a low heat setting. Turn tops inside out before washing to protect any printed details.

Can I wear these tops for activities other than gym workouts?

Absolutely. These pieces work brilliantly for running, hiking, cycling, yoga, and general active days. The versatile designs transition easily from structured workouts to casual wear – many customers wear them for dog walks, errands, or relaxing at home. The body-fit styles layer smoothly under casual jackets, making them practical for travel and everyday activities beyond the gym.

What's the difference between short sleeve and long sleeve options?

Short-sleeve tops provide maximum breathability and freedom of movement around the shoulders, making them ideal for warm environments and high-intensity sessions. Long-sleeve options offer more coverage for cooler conditions, outdoor training, or when you prefer your arms covered. Both styles feature the same quality fabrics and construction – the choice comes down to personal preference and training environment.

Who designs Myprotein's women's gym tops?

All our women's activewear is designed by Myprotein's in-house design team. They focus on creating functional pieces that perform during real workouts, using feedback from athletes and regular gym-goers to refine fits and select fabrics. The team prioritises practical details like seam placement, hem length, and fabric stretch to ensure each piece works as hard as you do.

Will these tops stay in place during intense workouts?

Yes, the body-fit styles are specifically designed to stay secure during high-movement activities like burpees, box jumps, and overhead movements. The stretchy fabrics and thoughtful construction mean tops move with you rather than riding up or shifting around. Hems are cut to maintain coverage, and the close fit prevents excess fabric from getting in your way during dynamic exercises.

How many gym tops should I own?

This depends on your training frequency, but having 4-6 tops in rotation works well for most people who train 3-5 times weekly. This allows you to always have a clean top ready while others are in the wash. Consider mixing fitted and relaxed styles to suit different workout types, and choose colors that pair easily with your existing leggings and shorts for maximum versatility.
