Lately I feel my fashion sense in the gym has tanked and have been seeking a quality place or two to shop online for stylish men's fitness apparel . I see all over Instagram the fitness girls seem to have their shit together in the style department but men's seems to be limited . Any ideas ?

Gym Shark and Alpha Co (Alpha Company?) or something like that are the ones I see in YouTube.

For me I buy Arizona v necks from JC Penneys for $5 a pop. Lots of colors and they fit snug around the arms and chest.

I'll check those two out , I find I can't lift in shirts cause of the chaffing that occurs in the armpit area drives me insane though

You should check out the Nike Dri-Fit brand of shirts which reduce chafing and are much more comfortable to wear than traditional shirts when you starting sweating.

Under Armour also has some good compression shirts with certain themes like Batman.

I buy V necks from Kohls and usually wear those to the gym. They are about $7-10. They serve me fine for the gym and other small occasions but I obviously wouldn't use them for anything more.

I'm a big fan of Nike's Dri Fit shirts. I'd say the number one improvement is actually to buy properly fitting shorts. Most guys wear shorts that are too baggy and makes you look whack. Yes, you can wear properly fitted shorts and still do squats without any problems.

I have these shorts: http://www.amazon.com/adidas-Performance...B00LEXWXJ8

Also, I like Converse All Stars as foot wear.

don't buy tee shirts with corny batman logo's on them. keep it simple. go to target and buy a pack of wifebeaters, hanes white v-necks, and a pack of tube socks. get nike or adidas running shorts - the kind with the compression underwear built inside. for heavy squatting, o-lifts, bent over rows, etc. get a nice pair of wrestling/boxing shoes (all black asics that tyson used to wear are $50). for your running get a pair of mizuno's, asics, or brooks.

I like wearing NRA gear, or vendor shirts (Colt, Sig, Glock, Springfield, Radical Firearms,etc), just to piss off any random shitlibs who may be in the area.

Forget style, wear something that shows off your muscles during a pump. Just hit up a thrift store, get some t-shirts no one wants for $1 or less apiece, and rip the sleeves off. You'll look badass, and won't have to worry about your pits getting chafed up by said shirt. Use the money you save on style essentials for outside of the gym.

Also, if you have a problem with chafing lube up the area where it tends to happen with some lotion or lube. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it definitely works.

If you worry more about fashion in the gym than gains you're doing something wrong.
Instead of buying multiple shorts just buy one and some booster, you'll only be allowed to buy another one when the first will be too tight due to maximum squatting

i'm a big under armour fan boy. their stuff is on the pricey side, but it's high quality, comfortable, and seems designed to compliment an athletic build. looks great if you're lean and muscular, not good at all if you're flabby.

I personally don't like shirts that aren't 100% cotton in the gym, because I think they slide around too much while bench pressing. If you are not doing bench press on that day then this obviously doesn't matter.

Brooks Kubik says you should always lift in a full sweatshirt and sweatpants, in order to keep everything warm. Rather unstylish, obviously.

I go to goodwill and buy whatever is there second hand. Some sweat wicking stuff, some basketball shorts (big, loose for squats) and some sweatpants. Usually lift with long sleeves and long pants or long underwear top and bottom. Plus a winter hat with a dew rag underneath. I'm old and easy to get hurt.

Sportchek has a pretty big variety of fitness stuff and they aren't too expensive.
