The 20 Best Matching Workout Sets for Women in 2023

Real talk: When you need a little boost of motivation to fuel you through a run, lifting sesh, or yoga class, nothing does the trick like putting on a cute matching workout set. In fact, a 2018 survey showed that 85% of gym-goers feel more confident while exercising when they wear stylish athleticwear.

See our review of the best leggings.

It makes sense, too: the right apparel can ensure you feel comfortable and supported while cranking out demanding moves. Plus, on days you'd rather skip the squats to sleep in, you're more likely to stick with your goals and push yourself when you have a trendy outfit to show off.

Nowadays, there are tons of matching sets that can take the guesswork out of planning a workout outfit, and make you look instantly put together. The best part? You don't even have to sacrifice function for fashion — or vice versa.

Ahead, find 20 of the best matching workout sets that'll power you through every kind of workout.

Sizing options: 2XS-XL

With an eye-catching colorblock design and an ultra-flattering fit, this set always seems to draw a few compliments no matter where I wear it. Both pieces feature Speedwick technology to keep you dry during especially grueling workouts. They're also made with odor-eliminating Motionfresh tech — so you can confidently run errands or meet up with friends post-workout.

Even though the pullover top isn't adjustable, it still feels super supportive thanks to the sturdy band, racerback cut, and angled side seams. Plus, the removable padding offers extra coverage and shaping. When I want to indulge my inner '90s kid, I like to pop on this matching Classics Franchise Track Jacket.

Sizing options: One size fits most (XS-L), Curvy (L-XXXL)

What I love most about this woman- and Latinx-owned, size-inclusive line is that all of the pieces are stylish enough to wear from barre class to the bar. The chrome leggings and deep v top are no exception: with a luxuriously shiny finish, unique texture, and figure-flattering fit, they're incredibly versatile.

I pair them with sneakers and a hoodie to run errands, a tank and grippy socks for Pilates class, or boots and a leather jacket to go out at night. The workout leggings offer a lot of compression without being uncomfortable or restrictive, and the top provides a surprising amount of support even for my DD bustline even though it's not adjustable.

Booty By Brabants pieces are one-size-fits-most, but it's important to note that both the top and leggings are available in a curvy version (sizes XL-XXXL) as well here and here. And did I mention that Taylor Swift was recently spotted wearing this same set while on tour? No wonder it's sold out several times over.

Sizing options: XS-XXL

Adjustability is one of the most important sports bra features, particularly if you like to do high-impact workouts. By allowing you to achieve a more customized fit, this feature ensures you have the right level of support for whatever workout you're doing. That's just one of the reasons why I love this Under Armour sports bra.

In addition to an adjustable band and straps, it also boasts molded padding for additional coverage, sweat-wicking material, and breathable mesh panels. The buttery soft matching leggings hit right between the calf and ankle so you can show off your cute kicks. They also feature slit pockets on each hip to store your keys, phone, earbuds, or gym ID card.

Sizing options: XS-2X

This particular set from the female-founded Year Of Ours is one of the best matching workout sets — and it's part of a special collection made mainly from recycled polyester. Both the top and leggings are breathable, moisture-wicking, and ideal for low to medium-impact exercise.

I love that the bra is double-lined, with a flattering V-neck and racerback design and enough compression to hold me in during mild to moderate cardio. The lace-up leggings don't just feature a cute lace-up detail, but also a three-layer waistband with plenty of compression. Best of all, I can confirm that they're totally squat-proof.

Sizing options: XXS-XL (legging), XXS-XXXL (bra)

Seamless pieces don't just lend a cleaner look — they also allow for maximum freedom of movement. That's just one of the reasons why this is one of the best matching workout sets — which is Fair Trade Certified and made with recycled materials. The top doesn't feature any padding or adjustability, but it boasts enough compression to make me feel secure during low-impact workouts. Since the high-rise leggings are ultra-stretchy and flexible, they allow for a full range of motion during high kicks and plié squats. Pro tip: if you're between sizes in the top, opt for the smaller size for maximum support.

Sizing options: XS-3X (bra), XXS-3X (tight)

Working out when your bra size is D-cup or above can present some unique challenges. But Athleta makes several tops specifically for larger bustlines, which is why this is the best matching workout set for women with larger busts. (Note that it also comes in an alternative version who wear an A-C cup).

Not only does this bra offer ample coverage and adjustable straps for a flawless fit, but it's also made with breathable and quick-drying material. As for the matching leggings, the Powervita fabric truly does, as the company promises, feel like a "gentle hug" on my body. And thanks to the ultra-high waist, I never have to worry about them budging during squats, lunges, and deadlifts.

Sizing options: XXS-4X

Fabletics — a popular athleisure line founded by Kate Hudson and endorsed by Lizzo — has an endless array of co-ord workout outfits to choose from. But what makes this particular set one of the best matching workout sets for women is the universally flattering fit. Between the V-shaped crossover waistband on the shorts, and the keyhole detail on the front of the bra, this is the kind of set that actually makes you psyched to hit the gym.

The bra is designed to gently lift, shape, and hold, while the shorts offer the perfect amount of compression and a handy side pocket to hold small must-haves. These pieces don't just look good, either — they feel good, thanks to the moisture-wicking and chafe-resistant fabric and all-way stretch.

Sizing options: XXS-L

By now, you've probably spotted your fave Instagram influencers wearing an Alo Yoga set — and this sleek and sporty set is one of their best sellers with good reason. It truly feels like a second skin, thanks to the silky smooth fabric and ample stretch. "This is one of my favorite sets ever and I do everything in it. It does the impossible by being both comfortable and unrestrictive while also lifting and shaping in all the right places," says Samantha Crozier, our Style & Beauty Editor.

With adjustable straps and removable cups, the bra provides just the right amount of support for moderate-impact workouts like spinning and power walking. It's also perfect for yoga and Pilates because it doesn't restrict your range of motion or flexibility whatsoever.

Sizing options: XS-2XL (bra), XXS-3XL tall (leggings)

If you get as excited as I do when leggings have pockets, I bear good news: this pair features not one, not two, but six (yes, six) pockets. The two angled seamless side pockets offer easy access to any workout must-haves, while the three drop-in pockets at the back waist and one zip pocket on the thigh offer a little extra storage for your chapstick, ID card, and more.

That's not all there is to love about these leggings, though: they feature an extra-wide smoothing waistband, sweat-wicking Dri-FIT technology, and an internal drawstring for a customized fit. As for the matching bra, it boasts removable padding, compressive fabric, and a body-hugging feel. It's also worth mentioning that as part of Nike's sustainable materials collection, this set is made with at least 50% recycled nylon fibers.

Note: Nike recommends sizing up in both the bra and leggings, but I found they fit pretty true to size.

Sizing options: XS-XL

This aptly named "Always On" top truly has become a go-to for me — not just for Pilates and yoga classes, but also traveling and running errands — due to the built-in shelf bra, adjustable straps with a criss-cross option, and velvety soft fabric.

And it's no surprise that the matching midi leggings are a bestseller season after season: they feature four-way stretch, UV protection, a cute crossover design, and ultra-soft moisture-wicking material.

Sizing options: XS-XXL (bra), XS-4X (leggings)

This is one of the best matching workout sets for being active. Whether you do a lot of spinning or strength training, rest assured that you'll feel supported by this sports bra, which provides a moderate amount of compression, a lightweight and breathable mesh lining for ventilation, and moisture-wicking tech to keep you dry.

The wide, stretchy, adjustable nylon straps hold you up without digging into your shoulders, and the molded cups lend some subtle shaping. Both the bra and leggings are made with Old Navy's heavenly PowerSoft fabric and four-way stretch. As an added bonus, the leggings feature flat-lock seems to ward off chafing, and on-seam side pockets at the hips.

Note: This sports bra is also available in an alternate version for sizes 2X-4X.

Sizing options: XXS-6XL

We did a review of Girlfriend Collective's leggings and loved them. In fact, Insider's Angela Tricarico says that these are the first ones she reaches for when getting dressed — and it's easy to see why they're one of the best matching workout sets for women. "They're well made and have lasted despite many wears and washes," she writes. "I love the versatility of the leggings when it comes to styling. They're great for working out, but I've also worn them out at night."

The matching longline racerback bra — a Girlfriend Collective bestseller — offers enough coverage to double as a workout tank. Soft, sturdy, and stretchy, it's ideal for low to medium impact workouts.

Sizing options: XXS-XXL (bra), XS-XL (leggings)

It's rare to find a bra that I don't want to tear off my body at the first opportunity — but Vuori succeeded here. In fact, I almost forget I'm wearing this one. It features removable padded cups, moisture-wicking material, and a simple silhouette with a fun criss-cross detail in the back. The matching leggings, meanwhile, are made with flexible four-way stretch and quick-drying tech for practicality purposes — plus a hidden zip pocket to secure your workout essentials.

Sizing options: M-6X

Torrid is a fan-favorite brand for people sizes 10 to 30 — and as a plus-size friend of mine notes, the company's activewear line is highly underrated. This longline sports bra has racked up hundreds of five-star reviews, mainly due to its breathability, coverage, and four-way stretch.

The matching leggings feature a flattering V-shaped waistband, helpful side pockets, and are made with smoothing tech that delivers some light compression. Reviewers like that the material is thick enough to give enough coverage — but not so thick that their movement is restricted.

Sizing options: XXS-XXL

Aerie's Real Me Xtra line is designed with a dreamy 360° stretch that moves with you, not against you. Not only are these pieces made with buttery smooth and fast-drying fabric, but they are easy to launder. Just throw them in the washing machine and then lay them flat to dry.

The lightweight bra features cups that mold perfectly to your bust as well as a snug and supportive band, while the high-waisted bike shorts have just the right amount of compression. This is the kind of cute yet comfy workout ensemble that transitions seamlessly from the gym to brunch, coffee dates, and other casual meet-ups.

Sizing options: XS-XL

Calling all fur parents: These Halara leggings are specially designed to resist pet hair, which means you can give that trusty lint roller a break. Minimal hair will stick to these leggings, and even when it does, you can easily just pat it off. With a squat-proof construction, side pockets, and a silky soft feel inside and out, there's so much to love about these leggings — which, it's worth adding, come in a whopping 17 different colors. The soft, breathable, moisture-wicking matching tank boasts cute detailing like a criss-cross design in the back, as well as functional features like removable pads for customized support — making this one of the best matching workout sets for women.

Sizing options: XXS-XXL

Everlane's The Perform legging was so popular that the brand made this new version with dual tech pockets you can stash your phone and other knick-knacks in. The leggings are made from the same premium, sweater-wicking performance fabric and feature the same high rise. They never ride up or down, and they also boast vertical seams that visually elongate your legs. Thanks to the double-layer lining and wide elastic band, the bra offers substantial coverage and support despite having no adjustable features. Best of all? Both pieces in this eco-conscious set are comprised of 58% recycled nylon.

Sizing options: 2XS-XL (bra), XS-2XL (leggings)

Feel free to don this stylish set next time you're planning an especially vigorous workout — both the bra and leggings feature AEROREADY technology, which wicks sweat away to keep you dry and comfortable. Not only that, but the bra boasts a mesh back panel that maximizes airflow. This set definitely feels compressive, but not so much so that I can't breathe or move freely. I also appreciate that the leggings have pockets and the bra has removable padding that I can pop in and out depending on how much coverage and lift I want.

Sizing options: 2XS-XL (bra), XS-2XL (leggings)

If you want style without a hefty price tag, this is one of the best matching workout sets you can get for under $50. Joylab's seamless set from Target comes in several eye-catching colors that are bound to brighten any gym sesh. The leggings are ultra-flattering, thanks to a wide elastic high-rise waistband, all-over ribbed texture, and modest compression. Wear them with the matching v-neck tank bra for a coordinated look, or try mixing and matching them with other casual pieces. When I'm not working out, I like pairing these leggings with a concert tee and jean jacket, or wearing the tank with cozy joggers.

Sizing options: XXS-XXXL

This set, which comes in an array of gorgeous neutral hues — has garnered dozens of five-star reviews, in part because it's so versatile. Both the squat-proof, sweat-wicking leggings and the bra feature enough stretch and support to accommodate low-intensity workouts — but they also look polished enough for everyday wear outside the gym. I've styled these leggings with sweaters, blazers, and button-down shirts. With a super soft, breathable fabric and removable padding, the comfy matching bra is perfect for yoga flows and just lounging around the house.
