Long Sleeve Tops?

[Leadfoot]

I'm finally facing the fact that I'm going to have to pick up at least a couple of long sleeved running tops, as the warm up walks are actually cooling me down now - does anybody have any tips for looser fitting ones? They all look a bit... snug

I got a couple from Sports Direct, Karrimor ones and they’re a much looser fit 😊 Might be worth a try! Xx

Excellent stuff, thanks, I'll check them out!

Just get a size bigger? My Reebok running tops are not tight..but you don't want flappage either.. they gave an outlet sale on now..

I suffer from what my loving partner calls 'big fat back', so there's probably not much danger of flappage haha. I'm just after something that isn't fitted really. If it's too much hassle to find, I might go long sleeved underneath and short sleeved on top.

Good plan..layering is perfect...especially this weather. 😆

Once you start entering races you'll be inundated with them 😁. I won another one last weekend

Tesco tend to be roomy Karrimor from sportsdirect is fine You could check out Asda, Primark, Sainsbury’s. Lidl and aldi stuff is good but I don’t believe they have run stuff in at present. My Aldi merino long sleeved top is fab. just the thing at the moment

I've got my Aldi one on now

I got cold outside in my garage loft!

Thanks, I'll have a look!

I wear a snug one but in the cold I put another looser shortsleeve running top over it, keeps me warm on the walking bit but not overheated or flappy when I run . ( probably looks a bit weird but who cares).

A long sleeve snug one (such as a compression top) with a short sleeve one over the top, or vice versa is what I do, short sleeve compression top with long sleeve shirt on top, all breathable, layers are better in cold weather..

Thanks all, i'm about to head out into the cold layered up with the snug one i bought by accident. Fingers crossed!
