You’ll want to wear something that moves with you, wicks sweat and dries fast. And of course, it should fit well without being too tight or restrictive.

Luckily, there’s no shortage of good-looking and functional men’s workout clothes there. The key is to know your preferences — like, how much breathability matters, whether or not you’ll need UV protection, if you’ll get hot easily and what you prefer about the fabric. All of the items we’ve picked out here tick one or more of those boxes.

It’s no secret that the right gear can make or break a workout. And the breathable, stretchy pieces on this list will help you push harder, dig deeper and crush your fitness goals.
