DreamBliss Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) I know this is kind of an odd question, but I assume that a lot of us here don't run around in robes all day, and furthermore, that these individuals do yoga, Tai Chi, Qi Gong or other physical practices. Unless everyone just does it in the nude, I think its safe to assume that we all wear some sort of exercise clothing. Â I need help in this area. Where does someone with a 6 foot+ tall, 240 pound physical body and maybe $20.00 to spend go to get exercise clothing online or at WalMart that doesn't fall apart on him? Â My first set of exercise clothes came to about $10.00 at WalMart. Just a Hanes set of shorts and a sleeveless T. But the string broke. Same thing for some Jerzees I recently bought - damn string snapped! Â I need something I can do yoga and running in, that will stay securely in place on my body, and which is secured in some fashion that will not break, or if it does, is easily replacable. I need something loose, and light weight. Something that is flexible. A pair of blue jean short cut offs and a t-shirt won't cut it. There has to be freedom of movement in the physical body. Â Any suggestions? Anything you found at Amazon or WalMart you liked? Or Fred Meyer? How about some obscure, hole-in-the-web site you found? If you have any suggestions please post links and details! Â And yes, in case you were wondering, I do exercise in the nude. But I am not about to go running down a public road that way... There are some limits... Â Â Thank you for your help!

silent thunder Posted May 21, 2014 I get nearly all my clothes at Ross or a similar outlet. About 1/4 to 1/3 the retail ripoff prices. Best to find out when they get their deliveries and what is available is always random. It simply amazes me that people regularly pay $20-50 for a t-shirt, or $80+ for pants or shoes... Â I guess you could check overstock.com if there is no similar outlet in your town. Â http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK8mJJJvaes I also LOVE thrift stores...

BaguaKicksAss Posted May 21, 2014 Costco. REI outlet.com (don't remember the exact url) Â Personally I go to the Sugoi warehouse sale each year; yeah $100 clothes for $5-$20 . See if you have any gear factories near where you live. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â That's a fine idea, which is probably way Hanes and Jerzees, at least, sew the string inside in the back somewhere, or are using two pieces of string, or something, because I have, so far, been unable to do this.

GreytoWhite Posted May 23, 2014 Ross, Marshalls, and TJ Maxx are about the only places I can ever find pants short enough for me - 29" inseam. Luckily since I lost weight the XS exercise pants I found fit rather well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
