Gymshark-like clothing in Dublin?

    Do you guys know where to buy it? I've seen very few modern, good-looking gym wear around town. It's mostly sports clothing which is completely different. Something a footballer would wear.

    Any advice is welcome.

    Most people on this forum tend to be quite utilitarian about this sort of thing. I wear a random tank top or old tshirt with shorts.

    That said, it looks like you can order directly from their eu website - wouldn't that do?

    It is quite expensive, especially with the shipping. Plus, I can't try it on, you know?

    But I find it hard to believe there's no stores for this here. I've never seen as many gym-goers per capita as in Dublin, really.

    Is it for working out or fashion?

    Not me. I'm so fashion forward it hurts sometimes. I was wearing this in the gym last night:

    Both. That's what these brands focus on. Quality/comfort + fashionable.

    Ok. I'm no use to you.

    I'm one of the utilitarian ones Zillah mentioned above. Fashion is a land I have yet to visit.

    How about Aeropostale in Liffey valley? Penneys and Lidl is where I buy a lot of my fitness gear (as well as any free tshirts I get from running events) so I may not be at the cutting edge of fashion knowledge :)

    Thx. Will take a look next time I'm there. On the website I couldn't even find any gym clothing at all.

    I've noticed. Actually own a couple items of theirs. Best options I could find so far...

    Tk Maxx in Blanchardstown usually have a decent range.

    Also have the Nike factory outlet out there but even with the discount they'll be a bit more expensive than what you'll find in tkmaxx

    Been there only once real fast. Will go back to check it out. Thx ;)

    The pendulum has swung too far now. I'd like to know where you can actually get normal gym gear?

    Bearing in mind that I'm dangerously close to 40, don't have a fade in my hair, speak in acronyms or my own youtube channel?

    It's a bit like when it was difficult to find black football boots.

    TK Maxx's finest all the way. I deserve sponsorship at this stage.

    Bizarrely I seen a company on facebook today who appeared to be selling DIY kits to paint your boots black.

    See if Lululemon or Sweaty Betty ship to Ireland. Simliar fashion concious brands and might be cheaper shipping.

    I have a fade in my hair, mainly around the temples and crown. Isn't this normal for a man approaching 40? Is this a thinly veiled "I've loads of hair" post?








    I don't know what a fade is.

    You're going to have to find out if you ever want to dab.

    I was dabbing before doing the dab was cool. Crippling hayfever.

    It became cool when you stopped.
