For Fun: What old raggedy workout clothing item can you not live without?

  • OK Guys,
    Question of the week
    What peice of old clothes (or shoes) do you still wear to the gym because you just love it and it loves you??

    I have a pair of Black cotton drawstring pants that I wore through both pregnancies. They have an elastic back, drawstring front and long wide, drapey legs. I could wear them whether I was 120# or 320#. They are so faded, they are more like dark grey now, but I love them. Not only do I wear them to the gym at least once a week, but I also wear them to cover my swimsuit, clean house or run to the store. They are probably close to 10 years old. Even though I am a TOTAL clotheshorse, I love them and will wear them until they fall apart (and then probably get abother pair!)

    What's your favorite old thing to wear?

    XOXO

  • black (used to be black, anyway) spandex capris. I wear them under my sweat pants now cause they look too bad to be seen in public but I LOVE the way they feel.

  • I have this one tshirt I love and I'll probably wear it til I can swim in it. It is a white tshirt with a print on the front, which is kind of artistic with a runner but you can't tell it is a runner unless you look closely. It inspires me to work out as it is sporty plus it is a really soft feeling shirt. I wore it the other day with a pair of exercise pants that have grown a bit too big on me and it felt like i was wearing pajamas more than dressing for the gym.
  • I have these size 2X T-shirts that have dog and cat stuff on them that I just can't give up. I was pairing them with a pair of 2X drawstring shorts, but since I've lost about 75 lbs. since I first wore them, they looked pretty funny. So now I still wear the big tops, but wear spandex shorts instead.
  • My favorite is a T-shirt from the American's Cup Women's Team. The collar is starting to detach, the arms are about shot and one side is baggier than the other, but the cotton is just the right comfort level.

    Also love my navy blue sweat bottoms, they have pockets. LOL.

  • I'll have to chime in on this one - it's my JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL uniform gym sweatshirt. It's almost 15 years old at this point. Grey with school insignia, and my name in black sharpie under the insignia on the front....ok, i'm a dork, but it is SO soft, it doesn't chafe, and I love it to pieces. Considering it's age and use, it's in excellent shape.
  • My all-star softball shirt from when I was ten years old. The number is starting to tear out of the back.
