Nike is a brand I come back to again and again, especially for classics like this compressive legging and molded sports bra. The bra has the same support of an underwire style, minus the underwire, and I can confirm that the leggings are definitely squat-proof.
Sizes: XXS–2XL
Shopper review: “Have been looking for a molded foam cup wireless bra for a long time that provides good coverage. This bra is lightweight and very comfortable. It provides good coverage and I like the more substantial straps. For me this is the perfect bra for everyday, walking, or light sports.”

Alo Yoga High-Waist Airlift Legging
After wearing Alo Yoga’s matching sets for Peloton classes and weekend errands, I can see why it’s a brand Hailey Bieber, Gigi Hadid, and Kendall Jenner wear on repeat. The pieces feel a touch dressier than the average activewear—for example, the double-layered detail on this sports bra—but when it’s time to sweat, they always hold up.
Shopper review: “Love the fabric! It feels soft and buttery on the skin. The material is thick enough that it doesn’t show panty lines or is see through like others. The fit is great and flattering to figure.”

Your LISS workouts just got a lot cuter. Girlfriend Collective’s bundle has full coverage and breathable fabrics for low-impact activities. This set also comes from one of the most size-inclusive workout brands on the market—so your entire running crew can match.
Shopper review: “Purchased these leggings because I had purchased the FLOAT shorts and was so impressed by the creamy soft material. They feel very light yet supportive. Love the fit and feel. Perfect for yoga.”

Dozens of top-tier active designers are part of Carbon38, but some of the retailer’s best sets come from its in-house label. For pilates or barre, this bundle with an asymmetric sports bra, coordinating leggings, and a quarter-zip sweater are available in a soft fabric I’m known to wear beyond the gym.
Sizes: XS–XL
Fellow runners and cyclists, a set from On belongs at the top of your gym bag. Its tank tops are feather-light and keep me cool during sprints, while the layered shorts can convert from a two-tone look to a solid compressive bike short (and back). They’re my favorite to wear on a race day.

Earlier this year, BAZAAR exclusively revealed that 11 Honoré and Adidas had teamed up on a new line of activewear exclusively for extended sizes. This supportive set is the best of the lineup, with a full-coverage sports bra and a high-rise legging that was rigorously fit-tested before arriving on shelves.
Shopper review: “I love this bra. One of my favorites so far. It helps keep everything in place and fits perfectly.”

lululemon Align High-Rise Mini-Flared Pant
New activewear brands are launching left and right, but some low-impact yoga classes are best served by a familiar label. Lululemon’s Align collection is so soft, there are entire Reddit forums devoted to tracking (and selling) items from the line. For a soft and supportive pairing, try an Align tank with a high-rise flare legging.
Shopper review: “The fabric is absolutely wonderful, buttery soft and feels like being naked. The pants also stay in place beautifully,” one shopper writes. Feel the top-notch quality for yourself in a monochrome set or mix-and-match different tones.”

Lululemon x Madhappy Hotty Hot Short 4″
Mindfulness-focused streetwear label Madhappy joined forces with Lululemon on a special collaboration. This workout set, with a 4″ running short and medium-support bra, has supported me through short runs both physically and mentally this spring: I feel so good in this lightweight gear, I run with more confidence.
Shopper review: “I don’t have the original in black so I was so happy to see this collab in black. It’s special and I love the design. Fits like my other pair of hotty shorts. So comfy and flattering.”

Outdoor Voices SeamlessRib One Shoulder Bra
When I think of matching workout sets, Outdoor Voices immediately comes to mind. It may be that celebrities from Lizzo to Ana de Armas are constantly wearing its leggings and unitards; it may be that OV’s hashtagged mantra, “Doing Things,” is everywhere on Instagram. Whatever your preferred form of exercise, this set featuring two best-selling pieces in a snug ribbed fabric is my suggested Outdoor Voices starter pack.
Shopper review: “Super impressed with this bra. I got it along with the matching leggings and I wasn’t expecting it to be so comfy and hold my chest in so snug! I got it more for a cute outfit but now I use it when I do yoga and I’m so happy that I can do a downward dog without worrying about fixing the strap. LOVE THIS TOP!”

FP Movement Good Karma 3-Style Bundle
Free People’s in-house activewear line is a TikTok-favorite for supportive, flattering workout gear. I like this bundle the best because can test the label’s three top-rated pieces—a sports bra, leggings, and running shorts—all at once. Plus, the brand allows mixing and matching sizes between the tops and bottoms for a bundle that actually fits.
Shopper review: “Everything about this bundle makes sense. All three items are practical and not overly self- conscious or flashy. The texture and weight of the fabric makes them substantial enough to wear to a workout without feeling exposed. I love the colors and the slightly worn in fade. I will buy again!”
Sizes: XS–L

Year of Ours Ribbed Cut Out Bra
Trust the experts, like Barry’s instructor Virginia Preston, to lead you toward a matching set brand that can handle an intense workout session—and still look cute.
“I love how unique the design is with the bra’s high neck keyhole cutout, and the short’s high rise waistband,” she says. “It stands out from everything else in my closet—plus you can’t go wrong with a ribbed pattern these days, so I absolutely love sporting this memorable set!”
Shopper review: “I have several YOU bras. This style is perfect for women with narrow shoulders (the straps slipped on the other styles) AND it offers some sun protection from age spots on the chest. It doesn’t exacerbate neck problems like the racer backs.”

Tracksmith Session Speed Shorts
Tracksmith’s tank tops and split shorts are a go-to choice for runners logging long distances or gearing up for race day. The shorts have a longer rise for more range of motion in your stride; both pieces are soft but suited to weathering all the elements you’ll encounter outside.
Sizes: XS–XL

Everlane’s bra and leggings have a minimalist look but the hardworking qualities of a more technical matching set. The fabric has slight compression, so I feel lifted but not squeezed in the high-rise leggings and scoop bra.
Shopper review: “Wore these leggings to a hot hatha yoga class and they held up great. They stayed up for the most part, didn’t display obvious sweat marks, and the ankle length was perfect for my height (5”5). The material is lightweight and breathable but not see through. I’m not sure I’d wear them for high intensity workouts but I love them for hot yoga or just running errands.”
Sizes: XXS–XXL

Whether you’re training with dumbbells or bodyweight circuits, you’ll want Gymshark’s seamless set in your arsenal. (Its vocal community of fitness lovers would agree.) Both the cropped tank top and the coordinating leggings glide on smooth, yet keep you supported through high-intensity exercises.
Sizes: XS–XXL

The bra and leggings (or bike shorts) in this bundle have the pillow-soft feeling I look for in activewear for low-impact activities. The flare leggings come in three different lengths, so you can show off your walking shoes as much or as little as you want.
Sizes: XS–XL
