It’s hard to find a work-out ensemble that fits into a diverse workout routine. Sometimes the long pants you wear for yoga isn’t suitable for a long distance run and the booty shorts you wear while you run is not always comfortable to wear in a yoga class. Sometimes you might just want to wear your workout clothes to work or school and be able to hit the gym immediately after without having to change clothes.

When looking for work-out gear, these are the questions I ask myself:

1. Is it comfortable? Can I do the wide array of movements I need to do in yoga, in running, and in weight lifting?
2. Is the material lightweight and aerated?
3. Is the material long lasting?

I recently came across NUX USA and find that they score fairly well on my three questions. The following is my review of the DASH short sleeve tee (style S435), BASICS T-back bra (Style: B270), and the BASICS Basic Leggings (Style: P069).

The material

NUX uses a high-speed wicking fiber from Nilit.

DASH short sleeve tee (style S435)

100% microfiber-nyolon

BASICS T-back bra (Style: B270)

93% Micro Fiber-Nylon and 7% Spandex

BASICS Basic Leggings (Style: P069)

93% Micro Fiber-Nylon and 7% Spandex

Before Work-Out: Feel & Look:

Extremely light weight and soft against the skin. The shirt is especially aerated and thus my body often feels very cool. The leggings are especially my favorite since its waistband is high enough to cover my troubled parts tightening my muffin top.

After Work-Out: Feel & look

I really enjoyed wearing my NUX work-out clothes doing light walking or just lounging but not as much as when I am exercising.

I decided to do a strenuous exercise just so I can sweat profusely and see whether or not the wicking power has a major affect.

EXERCISES I DO:

Yoga, running (outdoor and indoor treadmill), and weight lifting: dead-lifts, barbell benching, barbell squats, curls, leg presses, and shoulder presses.

Pros:

• Feels cooler (temperature) than wearing cotton t-shirt, spandex sports bra, and spandex/cotton leggings
• Even after sweating profusely, the shirt does not show any obvious sweat-marks, as you would see in a regular tank/t-shirt. You would see the sweat marks if you were to invert the shirt inside out.
• Feels comfortable no matter what exercises I do.

Cons:

• The cloth sticking to my skin
• The bra does not feel supportive enough for me

Hopefully this review helps you get a glimpse of NUX USA. I personally like them and look forward to trying out their other products. Please let me know what you think if you have the chance to try them out.
