Why NOBULL Gear Works for Me
I have never been a brand junkie or impressed by designer labels, and I like NOBULL’s attitude of focusing on hard work with functional, minimalist gear that is comfortable for workouts. After testing many of the NOBULL workout shirts, pants, and accessories, I am impressed with the quality apparel and durability of the brand.
Maybe I am getting old but I feel like running and workout pants are less durable than they used to be, and they get thin and worn out fast. And this isn’t just some cheap pants from Amazon - a lot of big athletic brands have some terribly thin leggings. I love that the NOBULL leggings are thick enough to hold up for weightlifting and running workouts without having to worry about them becoming too thin or see-through. The tops are moisture-wicking, lightweight, and relaxed, making them comfortable for runs and gym workouts.

My Top Picks: NOBULL Tops That Perform
After miles of running and hundreds (ok, more like dozens) of pounds of weightlifting, these are my favorite NOBULL workout outfits, starting with women’s shirts:
Putting NOBULL gear to the test.
NOBULL Women’s Muscle Tank
The NOBULL Women’s Muscle Tank is one of my most versatile workout tops. I love the relaxed fit, lightweight fabric, and freedom of movement with these tanks, making running in warm weather, on the treadmill, or hitting the gym a breeze. This women’s workout tank is great for spring and summer running and gym workouts like weightlifting.
I also love the many color selections and the solid colors for a sleek, streamlined look. My favorite colors so far are black and seasonal colors - hot pink and icy blue. The tank is also available in men’s.
NOBULL Women’s Deltapeak® Micro Textured Tank
The NOBULL Women’s Deltapeak® Micro Textured Tank is another NOBULL tank top that I love for workouts. The quick-drying tank has a high neck, which I like as a style and also for extra protection from the sun during hot weather. The unique, comfortable material is made from 100% recycled polyester and the moisture-wicking is awesome.
This training tank top is perfect for warm weather running and for strength training or HIIT workouts. This top also has a longer torso than the muscle tank, so if you want full stomach coverage, it’s perfect. The slimming tank comes in many color options. I love the balsam (green) and of course black (a New York staple).
In addition to the NOBULL Women’s Deltapeak® Micro Textured Tank, there is a Men's Deltapeak® Micro Textured Tank.
I wear my NOBULL gear a lot for runs around NYC.
Women’s High-Neck NOBULL Tank
If you want a lightweight, soft, comfortable workout shirt with more midsection coverage than the muscle tank, the Women’s High-Neck NOBULL Tank is perfect. I like the flattering high neckline, comfortable, lightweight fit, and the different solid color options. I have the tank in black and a seasonal ice blue that I love. This tank is perfect for warm-weather runs and gym workouts. It’s also available in men’s.
Women’s NOBULL Long Sleeve Tee
The Women’s NOBULL Long Sleeve Tee is soft and comfortable, moving easily with you during workouts. This lightweight tech shirt is a great base layer for cool temps. It’s also perfect for winter gym workouts. The slim fit is flattering and the solid black shirt is so versatile, you can wear it for workouts like yoga and gym sessions or as a regular shirt in daily life.
NOBULL Hoodies
I have a NOBULL crew sweatshirt that’s super comfortable but it looks like they have different designs now and I am not sure if it’s the same shirt. I have not tried any of the NOBULL hoodies yet but will do so soon so stay tuned for the full rundown!
Essential Bottoms: My Go-To NOBULL Tights
All of the NOBULL tights I have tried have been comfortable and durable, which, as I mentioned, is rare these days. They are thick enough to offer support and have moisture-wicking materials for comfort while training.
Women’s High-Rise Matte Tights
I love the Women’s 25” High-Rise Matte Tights, which come just above the ankle for me - I’m 5’6” but with not very long legs. The high-rise fit, support, and durability of these tights are great. I run in them and also go to the gym and do weightlifting and bodyweight workouts in these tights. They are really versatile and comfortable for just about any workout.
If you want full-length, they also come in 28” (full length).
The Best NOBULL Accessories
My favorite NOBULL workout outfits would not be complete without some useful and cool accessories. These are my top picks:
NOBULL All-Temp Water Bottle - Black Matte
The NOBULL All-Temp Water Bottle is sleek and functional, carrying 26 ounces of water or sports drink in a stainless steel, insulated bottle. Many stainless steel water bottles I’ve tried have been heavy, and this one is lighter than all my others, making it especially useful and easy to grab on the go. The sleek black design is the icing on the cake to help you stay hydrated in style.
The insulation keeps your drink cold or hot, and I use this bottle a lot for traveling with my dog as she has to have heated water with her food and digestive enzymes due to a medical issue (EPI). It’s also great for keeping water cool and this is my go-to water bottle for my dog and I both to stay hydrated.
NOBULL Crew Socks
I love the NOBULL Crew Socks for their well-made construction and comfort. These versatile socks have some compression and are thick and they stay in place well on runs and during gym workouts. I wear them a lot for winter running and on cool days and they’re also great for daily life. The cushioning makes them perfect for hiking and walking as well. I have them in black (of course!).
NOBULL Performance Hat
I love running hats as the weather in NYC is often sunny or rainy and a hat offers much-needed protection from the elements (and keeps hair from frizzing everywhere). The NOBULL Performance Hat is one of my staple running hats that I love because it's lightweight, comfortable, moisture-wicking, and fits well.
I often wear the black NOBULL hat on runs and to the gym (I run to the gym a lot) but it also works well in daily life for protection from the weather. I have a big head and the L/XL size fits perfectly (and it’s adjustable). This hat is the perfect medium - not too heavy for running but not too light so it doesn’t fly off.
NOBULL Styling Tips and Outfit Combinations
Embrace the monochromatic look. NOBULL often offers pieces in solid, cohesive color palettes. Wearing all black, all navy, or even matching a tonal top and bottom creates a sleek, sophisticated look that’s effortlessly chic.For a classic NYC look, go with all-black.
Layering is key. Many NOBULL pieces are designed for layering, allowing you to adapt to changing temperatures during workouts or throughout your day. A NOBULL tank is the perfect first layer to have for workouts and a hoodie or crew shirt on top will keep you comfortable on your way to the gym or to do errands.
Mix textures. While the colors might be solid, NOBULL incorporates different fabric textures (like the Deltapeak micro-textured material). Mixing these adds visual interest while still being functional and moisture-wicking for athletics.
Accessorize smartly. Your NOBULL water bottle, socks, and hat aren’t just functional - they can complete your athletic look. Choose colors that complement or subtly contrast with your outfit.
Comfort first, always. Remember, NOBULL’s core value is putting in the work. Your outfits should always allow for full range of motion and feel comfortable for your workouts.
What’s Your Top Workout Gear?
These are my favorite NOBULL workout outfits based on trying a lot of items, which I have been able to do as a NOBULL ambassador. As a trainer and runner, I look for sweat-wicking, comfortable gear that is flattering. I appreciate the durability of NOBULL gear and also the breathability of the tops. I also love the accessories, with the performance hat and water bottle being great for running, gym workouts, and traveling with my dog.
