How Many Activewear Brands are mugging you off!

How Many Activewear Brands are mugging you off!

Right let's cut through the shite. I was doing leg curl the other day, wearing a t shirt from a very well known brand. When I got up I almost had to peel the label off the seat.

Now this brand has produced high quality gear in its time but it's sad to say the standards have dropped as success has increased. We're now left with a product that the logo looks like it was ironed on at a market stall where you're told to come back in an hour to collect, and fabric so thin you could read through and pass an eye test at the opticians. And that's if you're "lucky" enough to be under a 2XL and have arms that can fill one of their t shirts.

While some may find our tone a little crass and direct, we have underlying core principles:


Size inclusivity - for all body types whether you have thunder thighs or spaghetti arms. We cover sizes XXS to 6XL.

Sustainability - all our products contain recycled polyester or organic materials and are GOTS certified

Premium materials- the fabrics we use are substantial quality with performance tech


Our products and our brand is for everyone regardless of shape and size. We don't preach what size you should be, that's your business and there are plenty out there already doing this. But whatever your goals, with our sizing range we'll follow you up or down the sizing charts with gear that will make you feel comfortable, look your best and built to last.

As a supplier of quality products we can't and won't even try to compete with budget fast fashion brands. And we won't sell you the clean corporate "aspirational" bollocks the established brands use. We're real people and we're building a community which communicates as we actually talk to one another. If this is you then you've found your tribe at Hero's Thread!


Follow Hero's Thread for daily gym humor and gear that won't let you down - no corporate bollocks, just premium kit and a good laugh! 😂
