Anyone who has bought workout clothes can surely attest that it’s a great way to motivate even the most tamad-gumalaw type. Fortunately, there are a lot of activewear brands in the Philippines to choose from; whether you’re into sleek single-hued pieces or eye-catching sets with unique details.
So, not only will you look and feel great, but you also get to #SupportLocal. And since we’re all about doing both of these things, we’ve rounded up local brands for activewear and athleisure — all of which you can shop online!
