Running clothes

[ClaireLou10]

Can anybody recommend where to get good running clothes that arent a ridiculous price 🤣

Also... does anybody know of anywhere that sells leggings with pockets for my phone ?

Never know where to look online lol

Got my stuff from Sports Direct. Heard Decathlon are reasonably priced too...

I hunt them down on eBay. I find Brooks comfy there is a phone pocket I don’t usually use it but I have and it’s fine. If you like fun Lucy Locket Loves are exciting, I don’t find them as comfortable though. Both stay up so no messing around when running. Don’t really know many so hope to get tips too.

Never even thought of ebay. I'll have a wee look there lol. Thank you!

Decathlon is very cheap for running gear, I would definitely recommend there! Also you can get some good cheap deals from sports direct. I’ve also seen a few bits on amazon recently too!

As for the leggings I got some from gymshark that have pockets, which fit my phone perfectly, they did cost £35 though. They are fab however and they never fall down! X

Okay thank you! I will have a look at them all. I don't mind paying a bit more if I know something is worth it but the last pair of leggings I put constantly roll down so I just can't wear them which is annoying 😂

[Ellaloux Graduate in reply to ClaireLou10]

They’re the best pair of leggings that I have bought, I think they’re called ‘dreamy mesh leggings’ they’re the only pair I have that actually stay up😂even with my phone and car keys in them they stay in place😊

Sounds like exactly what I need 😂 thanks

+1 for Decathlon, they also do "click and collect" if there is a store or an Asda near you, had several buts and bobs from there myself and it's decent kit at a reasonable price.

Fabletics do them with pockets but when I looked the nicer styles didn’t come in the bigger sizes 🙄

I’ve just ordered some from decathlon, can’t say if they are a good brand or not as I just went for what was cheap 🙈

Brand is ‘Kalenji’ and I got leggings, tops and some warmer stuff ready for winter. All really reasonably priced. More experienced runner might say it’s not a good brand to go for though 🤷🏻‍♀️

[ClaireLou10 Graduate in reply to Foxyblue]

Aslong as they stay up while running then they do the job just fine! Let us know how yours are once you've managed to try them 😁

[Foxyblue in reply to ClaireLou10]

They seem ok, they are have draw strings on the inside so you could tie them to be sure they stay up 😉

Maybe one you wouldn't expect, but M&S! My favourite leggings were from there - it's their Good Move brand. They were around £25 and have kept their shape, wash brilliantly, don't slip at all. There's a pocket on the leg for a phone, and a zip pocket at the back for keys.

Sounds like I'm on commission, but I was just really surprised at how good they were for such a low price.

I've also bought some of their tops as well - nice material, wash well and only £15.

See.. all these places I wouldnt even think of 😂

Thank you! I will have a little look there 😁

There's Sports direct online for very reasonable cost shoes if you know your gait, always best to get a gait analysis and fitting first off in a reputable running shop, Brooks shoes are good but can be pricey..

Tops & leggings can be got in Aldi or Lidl

TKMaxx do a great range of sports gear and you can pick up some really good gear from well known brands at great prices. It's my first stop when I need something new.

[ClaireLou10 Graduate]

Thanks for all the suggestions guys 😁

For everything but shoes, I go to decathlon, they are cheap, but good quality. I have nothing against the shoes, I just never found a pair of running shoes I actually like from their brand. I would also look at sport shoes and start fitness, they have some good offers, not all sizes though, but if you are lucky you can get a bargain.

[Lucyintheskywith Graduate]

I have used for all my running gear a company online called START FITNESS .i find them very reasonable. They will often price match or give you a discount code too. I have a FLIPBELT for my phone and an arm band holder too.

[Couchphoenix Graduate]

Yep....Sports Direct 👍

Got mine at Christmas from Primark! Leggings (with side pockets) and baggy tee shirt for £12.50. Not sure whether they have them in stock but I’d rather use the internet at the mo anyway.
