Men

A good workout starts with the right mindset. But, a thick outfit helps too. Sportswear for men should be comfortable, not get in the way, and above all: move with you. Because nothing is more annoying than a shirt that sticks to your back or shorts that constantly shift.

Why good sportswear for men is so important

Look, you can of course train in that old shirt and those worn-out basketball shorts. But if you are serious about your training, you know that good sportswear can make or break your performance. Here's why:

You move better

Good fitness clothing for men stretches with you and stays in place, whether you are deadlifting or doing leg raises.

Ventilation

Nobody likes sticky, clammy clothes. Breathable material ensures you stay fresh, no matter how hard you train.

No irritation

Say goodbye to chafing seams and itchy labels. Instead, choose gear made for movement.

You just look better

And let's be honest: if you look good, you feel better. Simple.

The basics: what do you really need?

A good sports outfit doesn't have to be complicated, but there are a few essentials that belong in every gym bag:

✔ Breathable sports shirts
✔ Functional shorts
✔ Tank tops for freer movement
✔ Sturdy sneakers & socks
✔ A good grip for serious lifts

Buying fitness clothing for men: what to look for?

Not all sportswear is the same. Before you just throw something in your shopping cart, check these points first:

1. Fit

Too loose? Gets in the way. Too tight? Limits your freedom of movement. Choose a fit that matches your body without being restrictive.

2. Material

Polyester blends or spandex ensure you stay fresh and your sweat doesn't stay trapped in your clothes.

3. Stretch

You need to be able to move freely without your clothes tearing or feeling restrictive. Especially important for squats and deadlifts.

4. Durability

Do you train often? Then invest in quality. Cheap clothes quickly lose their shape and elasticity.

Training without distraction

How do you combine a comfortable outfit with a good look? Here are a few golden combinations:

- For a heavy leg day: Choose a slim-fit shirt, shorts with stretch, and sturdy sneakers. Need extra grip? Grab a pair of wristbands or grips.
- For cardio & HIIT: Go for a breathable tank top, shorts that dry quickly, and lightweight sneakers.
- For colder days: Choose long sports leggings under your shorts and a sweat-wicking hoodie for the warm-up.

The most important thing? Wear something you feel good in and can train in without distraction.

Veelgestelde vragen over heren sportkleding

What is the best material for sportswear?

For sportswear, synthetic materials such as polyester, nylon, and elastane are the most suitable. These fabrics are lightweight, breathable, and moisture-wicking, keeping you dry and comfortable during intense workouts. Elastane (spandex) adds extra stretch, giving you maximum freedom of movement, even during heavy lifts or dynamic exercises. At ZEUZ, we combine these materials in smart fabrics that are both functional and durable.

What is better: tight or loose fitness clothing?

That depends on the type of training and your personal preference. Tight sportswear – such as compression shirts or leggings – provides support, reduces muscle vibration, and promotes blood circulation. Ideal for strength training or running. Loose clothing offers more ventilation and freedom of movement, which can be pleasant for yoga, stretching, or casual workouts. Many athletes combine both styles for optimal performance and comfort.

How often should I wash my fitness clothes?

Fitness clothing should ideally be washed after every workout. During exercise, the fabric absorbs sweat, bacteria, and dirt – and if you leave it too long, unpleasant odors or even mold can develop. Use a mild detergent, wash at a low temperature (30°C), and avoid fabric softener. Fabric softener clogs the fibers, which worsens breathability and moisture regulation.

How do I choose the right size?

Always start by consulting the size chart of the brand. Measure your chest, waist, and hip circumference accurately and compare these with the indicated sizes. ZEUZ sportswear fits true to size, but if you are between two sizes or prefer a bit more room to move, it is better to choose one size larger. Well-fitting sportswear prevents chafing and increases your comfort during training.
