Thin hoody for gym

Twirlywoos · 1 May 2013 at 22:35

Does anyone know where I can get a thin material hoody for the gym? The ones I've seen so far are wool/polyestor and far too heavy/thick for gym use even though they are sold in a sports shop. :confused:

Doesn't matter if it is one with a zip or one which you just put on over your head.

Thanks

Looks good if you can find one in your size.

Go for a size above your normal size as they come up pretty short for me

Better than wearing jeans I guess. What ever happened to the good old leotard?

Edit: and grow a moustache

thanks for those links. As for wearing a hoody in the gym, who cares, it's not a fashion show, people can wear what they want.

majnu, I think people are wondering why you would wear a hoodie due to temperature/sweating issue rather than questioning your fashion sense

After all, I don't bother with "short" socks (aka trainer socks) in the gym, now thats bad fashion sense! No?

Edit: Try Primark - they've usually got thin hoodies. i have a purple one, but wouldnt wear it in the gym. or any of the sports shops like Sports Direct etc

Lets see

1) Garment style is too hot for the gym

Options are

a) Wear different garment style
b) Try and find garment in thin version

Why not choose option a)? Hoodies in the gym don't look cool.

I see young women wear hoodies or jumpers they train for 10 minutes then take them off, whats that about.

What if the OPs Gym looks like this?

I always train in a hoody now, so much more comfortable I find. In the summer obviously I'll go back to a vest/t-shirt, but I love training in a hoody

DogsBody · 2 May 2013 at 12:58

I don't get this either,
Everyone in my gym seems to train in a hoody even in winter when the gym is cold I don't wear one, after a 5 - 10 minute warm up I am then warm enough to workout the entire session in a T-shirt/poloshirt.

Hoody + yoga pants = fine for girls.

Not cool for guys. Even if they look like a massive scrotum.

(Love you, Steedie.

American apparel do them, not cheaply though.
