Workout tops

summer breeze · 10-06-20, 10:26 AM

I checked older threads but didn't really find what I was looking for. I walk outdoors and it's getting (delightfully) cooler now so I'm looking for long sleeved tops that I can wear over leggings. So they need to be long enough for leggings but not so long they look like a dress (I'm 5'5" for reference).

I don't like them too snug but I also don't like when they're so shapeless or baggy they look like a maternity top or a tent. So slightly fitted maybe is the term?

Affordable is always preferred over expensive. Any brands you can recommend or styles I can look into? TIA

Kohl's has Tek Gear tops on sale for buy one get one half off. I do not know if they have coupons available now. I only buy that brand on sale and with coupons. They are well made and stand up to repeated warnings.

I am a bargain shopper also.

Old Navy has some good ones too.

I'll second the Tek Gear tunics. They're a big part of my fall/winter wardrobe. I'm actually wearing one right now!

Thanks everyone! I was thinking Tek Gear at Kohl's. I do have a couple of sleeveless ones from them. I looked through the long sleeve options and they didn't look long enough but I'll check again!

Yes, I'll look through Old Navy again too.

I was also looking on amazon but things are so hit or miss for me there.

I appreciate the responses

Wal-Mart used to have long sleeved workout tops from the brand Danskin Now, but I do not know if they sell them anymore.

Oh thanks, Sherry. I'll look that up.

It looks like Wal-Mart only has pre owned ones, but there are new ones on Amazon. That is weird!

Try TJ Maxx, Marshall's and Ross. Also, sierratradingpost.com online. They always have fitness wear at a reasonable price. It is about 50% off.
