Since i work for sportchek, i'm pretty well equipped....
usually Under Armor "Fitted" Sleeveless Tee, with Just a basic UA shorts
Or the Nike Pro Combat "Fitted" Sleeveless Tee

For Bikram I wear either Core Shorts by UA, or Nike Pro Combat Compression shorts, and sometimes with a UA "Compression" top.

I find UA's compression line to be "thicker" than the Nike Compression line, Nike is definitely more breathable, but UA offers more compression.

The UA's "fitted" line seems to fit much better than Nike's "Fitted" line, but also about $10 more both retail and cost.

For footwear, i wear Asics Gel Kayano for Gym/Running, and Salomon Speedcross 3 for Grouse Grind/Trail running.

Gloves just basic Harbinger Pro Wrist Wrap

I'm looking for shorts that don't cling to the knees. Not the running shorts where your balls hang lower than the legs, but not soccer length either. Any ideas? Since you work at sports check, maybe you are familiar...

All the shorts they sell here have like a 12" inseam, so unless you wear them at your chest, they hang low and get in the way

Bought a pair of black stretchy boardshorts from Costco. Made by "Redsand". Super stretchy in every direction so they don't bind up during squats. They were cheap too, less then $20 if I remember correctly.

I don't know what they are called off the top of my head, but I wear the UA shorts that are shorter than bball shorts but definately. Longer than soccer shorts, they are super light weight, no liner for $29.99 retail. Come in navy, black. Or red.

If u don't mind. Spending a bit more, the UA combine training series has a short that sits slightly above the knee for me and is CRAZY light weight, and drys super quick, but at $39.99 a pair retail, its a bit pricy

Wonder if I can find those here... I see a lot of skinny people wearing these wacky tight clothing with pieces of rubber all over them, but I don't think they are under armor

Harbinger gloves have been very good.

Nike Dri-Fit Fly Short - Men's - Training - Clothing - Black/Black

I have these Nike Speed-fly shorts that I use in the gym. 10" inseam so they sit right at the mid-point of my knees. Light, and I can do deadlifts in them pretty okay. Pockets are a bonus as I have some Under Armour shorts that are like an 8" inseam with no pockets.

those look really long though.. hmm they have 'training' specific shorts, that's what they need here

As annoying as the crossfit thing is, it is helping that companies are starting to market to them. Reebok has already started doing it here with their flexible shoes. I hope other functional clothing makes it here too!

Picked up some $6.00 shorts from Walmart in the states a while back. Just wear those and a thin tee that can breathe.

Dude, I love my lulu v necks, I have the plain gray and plain black, they fit so well and are so comfortable that I wear them clubbing.



For gym i just wear any dry fit or ua stuff i buy in the seattle outlets, for shoes i wear my free runs.

Tops and shorts:
Lululemon SilverScent (anti-stink) line on weekdays cuz i go straight to work from the gym, leaving my sweaty clothes in my Gymbag. And because they are made from sliver nylon, bacteria don't grow causing it to stink up the car and bag. Highly recommended for those on the go!
Nike Dri-Fit on weekends

Shoes:
Nike Free Runs on running cardio days
Nike Air Max on biking cardio days.

I tried converse and I don't get how people can do it. They are so fucking heavy! It's like wearing lead on your feet.
