While the thought of working out can seem daunting to some, stylish workout gear can give you that extra motivation to hit the gym. For a chic twist on fitness attire, stand out from the Reebok and Nike-clad masses of the world and opt for something a little more local. Since the athleisure trend shows no signs of slowing down, you’ll be able to take these trendy Canadian activewear brands from your sweat sesh straight to the streets.
Here Are Some Of Our Favourite Canadian Activewear Brands That Will Have You Sweating In Style.

TMPL Sportswear
Many people don’t realize that our body can absorb the toxins from the chemicals and dyes from the fabrics we wear when we sweat — staying healthy isn’t just about what we put into our bodies, but what we put on it! Our bodies are temples and we should treat them as such. Luckily, with TMPL Sportswear, a made-in-Canada athletic line, it’s easy to do that!
