Key Features

Premium Fabric Blends

Cotton-rich fabrics and brushed fleece linings deliver softness against the skin whilst maintaining durability through countless wears and washes. These aren't thin, flimsy layers that lose shape after a month. The materials hold their structure, resist pilling, and get softer with time.

Relaxed and Oversized Fits

Movement matters, whether you're reaching overhead for pull-ups or simply stretching between sets. The fits across this range give you room to move without feeling baggy or shapeless. Oversized options offer that laid-back aesthetic whilst still looking intentional, not sloppy.

Functional Design Details

Kangaroo pockets keep hands warm and essentials secure. Ribbed cuffs and hems lock in warmth without riding up. Adjustable drawcords on hoods let you dial in the fit. These aren't afterthoughts�they're design choices that make each piece more practical for daily wear.

Versatile Colourways

Classic blacks and neutrals form the foundation of any training wardrobe, whilst statement colours like forest green and mocha add variety without going overboard. Whether you prefer understated basics or pieces with a bit more personality, the palette works across different styles and preferences.

FAQs

How do these hoodies and sweatshirts fit?

Most styles in this collection offer a relaxed, comfortable fit with room to move. The oversized options feature dropped shoulders and a looser silhouette for that contemporary look. If you prefer a closer fit, consider sizing down on oversized styles. Standard fits run true to size with enough room to layer a t-shirt underneath comfortably.

What fabrics are used in these pieces?

The collection features premium cotton-rich blends and brushed fleece linings that balance softness with durability. These fabrics resist pilling, hold their shape through repeated washing, and actually get more comfortable over time. The materials are substantial enough to provide warmth without being heavy or restrictive during movement.

How should I care for my gym hoodies and sweatshirts?

Machine wash cold with similar colours and tumble dry on low heat to maintain fabric quality and prevent shrinkage. Turn garments inside out before washing to protect any graphics and preserve the outer surface. Avoid using fabric softener, as it can reduce the natural breathability of the cotton blends. Following these steps keeps your pieces looking fresh for longer.

Can I wear these during workouts or just for rest days?

These pieces work brilliantly for warm-ups, cool-downs, and lighter training sessions where temperature regulation matters. The breathable fabrics handle movement without trapping excessive heat. For intense cardio or heavy lifting sessions, you might find a lighter technical layer more suitable, but for stretching, mobility work, or outdoor training in cooler weather, these hoodies perform beautifully.

Who designs these gym hoodies and sweatshirts?

Myprotein's in-house design team creates every piece in this collection, drawing on feedback from athletes and everyday gym-goers. The team focuses on balancing functional details with contemporary style, ensuring each hoodie and sweatshirt works as hard in the gym as it does outside of it.

What colours work best for versatility?

Black, bone, and washed black serve as foundational neutrals that pair with everything in your wardrobe. These shades hide wear, match any gym kit, and transition easily from training to casual settings. Forest green and mocha add personality whilst remaining easy to style�they're statement pieces that don't require much thought to pull off.

How do crew neck sweatshirts compare to hoodies?

Crew neck sweatshirts offer a cleaner neckline that layers well under jackets and doesn't add bulk around the face. They tend to have a slightly more streamlined look for casual wear. Hoodies provide extra warmth and coverage, with the adjustable hood offering protection during outdoor training or commutes. Both styles use the same quality fabrics and construction�it comes down to personal preference and how you plan to wear them.

Will these pieces shrink after washing?

When cared for properly using cold water and low heat drying, these hoodies and sweatshirts maintain their size and shape reliably. The quality of the cotton blends means they're pre-shrunk during manufacturing. That said, high heat can cause any cotton-based garment to tighten up, so sticking to the care instructions ensures your pieces fit the same way months down the line.
