Looking to upgrade your activewear wardrobe? While you probably know all about Canadian brand Lululemon thanks to their premium athletic apparel, their S$100+ price tags may not be as alluring. Whether you want to support local businesses, expand your activewear horizons, or simply save money on a pair of yoga pants, you’ll be happy to know that Singapore is full of quality-assured brands. Read ahead to discover affordable athleisure outlets near you, so you can focus on staying active instead of where your last paycheck ran off to.

Among the local brands we reviewed, K.BLU is at the top of the cost list because of its high average price of S$108 for a pair of leggings. However, you may notice that its sports bra pricing of S$15 tells a different story. The fashionable swimwear brand’s current discounts are marking off an average 87% from its sports bra collection. With this deal, you can expect the retail price for a single workout outfit (a pair of leggings + a top) to cost S$123, which is only S$10 more than the average local brand’s outfit (S$113), as well as 47% less than the average Lululemon outfit (S$232).
If you’re okay with paying Lululemon prices but still want to support local businesses, check out YeoMama Batik.

YeoMama Batik’s collection takes the activewear style a step further with its unique patterns and artistic design. Additionally, Batik activewear doubles as swimwear, with its 27% Spandex and 73% polyester make up. So while you may be paying 38% more for workout gear than the average activewear brand in Singapore, Batik’s versatility in both material and design makes the brand a good choice to consider for any and all activewear needs.
