The Clothes Make the CrossFitter

Like most communities, CrossFitters seem to follow general trends in athletic wear.  The demands seem to be simple, but hard to fulfill: functional, doesn't restrict full range of motion, and looks presentable.  It's not a surprise that when an athlete discovers an article of clothing that meets these requirements, word spreads and the whole gym then is sporting the new gear.

Lady CrossFitters have discovered Lululemon pants and shorts.  Despite being slightly more expensive than other options, they meet the requirements set forth above.  They also have a way of allowing the ladies to look feminine even while box squatting with a safety squat bar and chains.  

The fellas have always been fond of board shorts, maybe because of CrossFit's roots in Santa Cruz, CA.  But over the years, we've refined our search and have found board shorts like the O'neill Superfreaks – stretchy, stylish, breathable, and fairly inexpensive (since the ladies are spending all the $$$ on Lulu).  

Of course, CrossFit affiliate shirts make up the vast majority of the shirts being worn in the gym and the shoes worn in the gym range from flats to Chuck Taylors.  Do you have a favorite type of clothing that you can't workout without?
