From pilates to gym workouts, regular outdoor sprints, and the occasional hike, fitness has become an integral part of my lifestyle. As a Fashion Editor who is always on the go, taking time to focus on my body and health is essential.
With this integral part of my lifestyle, comes the ritual of setting aside the space and time to get my body moving. Finding a way to move your body that you enjoy is important, but so is the confidence that a quality activewear set can bring.
Like they say…”Look good, feel good!”
With my strictly all-black wardrobe, N3YH’s latest all-black activewear range immediately fell onto my radar. What sealed the deal? As someone who is always on the go, their new range ticks all of my boxes! Here’s what I look for when I purchase activewear, and why I found it in the new all-black range by N3YH.
Stretching in N3YH’s all-black range
Comfort is key
The foundation of any great activewear wardrobe is comfort. When you’re comfortable, you can fully focus on your workout without being distracted by tight seams, itchy fabrics, or restrictive movement.
The all black range by N3YH is butter soft to the touch, offering a luxe feel. No irritation or itching comes across on the skin and I love that the material feels like it’s top quality! Investing in quality pieces of activewear is a game-changer not only for you and how you feel while working out, but for your performance, too.
Fit for functionality
Activewear is not just about looking good, it’s about performing at your best. You want to aim for pieces that are tailored for your activities. For instance, if you’re into high-impact activities like running or HIIT, opt for sports bras with adequate support and leggings with compression features.
One thing I cannot stand in activewear leggings is the roll-over that happens in the mid tummy section. The leggings of N3YH’s all-black range does not roll down and is the perfect length for my short stature. Tip: Size down if you do purchase the leggings, as they do have some stretch to them, but not to a point of no return.
The bra is great too. It doesn’t come with inner cups, but is still supportive with a thick under-band. It’s not too tight to move around in and can even be worn as a regular bra.

It’s a style match
While functionality is crucial, don’t underestimate the power of personal style. When you feel good in what you wear, your confidence soars. Whether you prefer bold patterns, subtle neutrals, or vibrant colours, choose activewear that reflects your personality. This is why I love N3YH’s all-black range – it fits my aesthetic perfectly. Plus, I rest easy knowing that I’m tapping into style while supporting sustainable activewear – a plus for me and the planet.

I love activewear pieces that can be mixed and matched for various activities – this adds great versatility to your wardrobe. I’ve been wearing N3YH cropped sports jacket during and outside of my daily workouts, too – I love the ‘athleisure’ feel it gives to any outfit I throw on.
