Best Workout Clothes for Women

Sharifa Samora Daub & Design Aquarius print

Are you looking for the best workout clothes for women? I found a sustainable brand with the most beautiful prints that uses the best fabrics. And to make the checklist more complete, it is female-founded and owned and a Canadian brand. Look no further in today’s blog post; I will tell you all about what I think are the best workout clothes for women and why you will love them.

If we are friends on Instagram (if we are not, I would highly suggest joining me in this journey), you might have seen me in my stories with facemasks on with the most fabulous prints. These facemasks are made and designed in Canada by Daub & Design.

After stalking their website and seeing some fellow bloggers in the most beautiful tie-dye leggings, I have ever seen. I needed to try this.

I work out 2-3 times a week, and I believe that having the best workout clothes also helps to get that workout in. After spoken to Lexi Soukoreff, the owner and creative director of Daub & Design via Zoom (she made an effort to meet with me on Zoom), she gifted me a beautiful Savannah crop top and Riley legging from her Aquarius line (which I extra love because my sign is Aquarius)

I find it very important to know more about brands that I work with or buy from, and learning more about Daub & Design made me really love them, besides the fact that I really think that they produce the best workout clothes for women.

Before diving into all the details about the set, I would like to share why this is a super cool brand. And also why I think they have the best workout clothes for women out there.

Daub & Design was founded in 2010 by Lexi Soukoreff. It is an activewear women’s brand that explores the relationship between fabrics and the application of color. All their pieces are hand-dyed, designed, and made in Vancouver. This makes each of their pieces unique, exclusive, and indeed a work of art.

The fabrics Daub & Design uses for their activewear are carefully chosen. They are all made with high-quality fabrics, and they try to use left-over fabric as much as possible. When founding out about the left-over fabric, I was so moved. Daub & Design does this to be sustainable.

Daub& Design promotes inclusiveness, and a body positivity lifestyle is a core part of the brand. The fabric of the clothing feels so good. They will boost your confidence immediately, and because of the one of a kind pieces, it is also designed for women with a unique sense of style.

Let’s talk about why Daub & Design has the best workout clothes for women and why they stand out from other activewear brands:

  • Designed and made in Canada
  • High-quality fabrics
  • Wicking qualities
  • Anti-pilling
  • The material is breathable, and it feels like you are wearing nothing
  • Exclusive designs you won’t find this anywhere else
  • The waistband stays in place (we all know how frustrating it can be if it doesn’t)

And then my Aquarius set! I was gifted a size medium after giving my measurements to Lexi. 

When I first tried the set on, I knew that Lexi was not joking when she talked about her obsession with fabrics. I share a bit of the same addiction, so we bonded over that.

The material feels so soft, and it is like you are not wearing anything. Perfect for working out or lounge around in the house.

I also have a confession to make, and my friends know this. I am not a big fan of tie-dye. I saw tie-dye popping up on my timeline everywhere this summer. 

But Daub & Design their tie-dye is different, it is exclusive, and even the die-hard non-tie-dye wearers like me love it.

You can see that the set is made with love, thought, and great care. And the Daub tie-dye equals luxury; it is not so out there; it is art.

The Riley legging is high-waisted and perfect for my mom body. After carrying 3 little ones, I am not a fan of showing my bare belly, and these leggings are perfect.

The Savannah top has a mesh keyhole detail at the back. I love when workout tops have that because it makes it breathable. The top has a medium support. When doing a HIIT workout, it might not give you the support you need. However, for my regular circuit work out, it gave me the perfect support. 

When I work out, I am sweating not a bit but a lot ( thank you hormones) I don’t like it when a work out set can’t handle this. It was no problem at all with this beautiful set. I told you guys the best workout clothes for women out there!

I couldn’t stop talking about how soft this set is, and even after several washes, it stays soft. I have no pilling at all, and I believe it is worth every penny because it still looks good.

I was already a huge fan of their masks because of the material’s softness, but now I am also convinced about their activewear.

Thank you so much for gifting me this beautiful Aquarius set Lexi. Daub & Design also offers unique basics such as the popular Freedom jogger, the Addison crewneck shirt, or the beautiful Grace Poncho. These are definitely items I am planning to explore as well.
