Happy!

No complaints here, I'm happy with the way everything fit. Might get a size smaller on my next joggers but overall I'm happy with my purchase and will be a returning customer!

Best athletic apparel ever

When I came across the Barbell brand a few years ago, I had no idea how it would change the game for me in my professional life. I am a lifelong martial artist, teacher and business owner of a 25 year long established martial arts organization. Everything we do is intensive hand to hand combat training for self protection purposes. This means that the apparel that we wear must be pliable, flexible and very durable. Barbell delivers every time on every element. An added perk, is that their clothing looks awesome when you wear it. And let’s be real, fashion does matter to some of us! Everything I have invested in, from pants to hoodies to sweat towels to socks, it’s all been worth it. I can’t say enough about this brand. Thank you Barbell!

Great athletic fit

I bought this hoodie with the hope that it would show off my hard earned gainz. Well…it delivers. Despite being a hoodie it it fitted on my arms and stays close enough to the body that people know I’m not rocking a dad bod. I would buy it again!

Great pants for training in the garage

I bought these pants to use for training in the garage during the early winter. Not only do the perform great but they also look very stylish. I find myself wearing them for day to day wear more than I expected.

I like them so much just ordered a second pair!

Most Comfortable Clothes I Own

Everything I have purchased from Barbell turns out to be the most comfortable item of clothing I have in my closet. Athletic chinos fit like a glove in all the right places. T-shirts are soft and love to hug my biceps perfectly. Polos and button down shirts expose the hard work I put into the gym without being too obscene for the office. The sweatshirt is like getting a hug from your best friend-so comfy. Finally, the full-zip hoodie, which is not too heavy and not too light and looks great over anything that's under it. If you're in doubt about purchasing from Barbell, get over it and give it a try. Your body will thank you.

Great purchase

6 feet tall 240lbs and the xxl fits great for daily wear. 3x would likely be fine for a more roomy fit. Quality is outstanding

The Only Clothes I Own That Refuse to Wear Out

I’ve been wearing Barbell Apparel for a few years now, and they’re the only reason I stopped buying clothes for a while—because nothing would wear out.

I originally signed up as an Elite member and loaded up on their shirts, jeans, and tees. Three years later, those same pieces were still in my weekly rotation, still holding their shape, still fitting perfectly, and still looking good enough that I honestly couldn’t justify buying more. That’s a ridiculous thing to say about modern clothing, but it’s true: Barbell basically put my wardrobe on cruise control.

I lift and have an athletic build, so “normal” jeans and shirts either squeeze my legs and shoulders or fit my legs but balloon at the waist. Barbell nailed the fit. The jeans actually move with me—no stiff waistband, no painted-on skinny look—and I can go from sitting at a desk to sprinting through an airport without feeling like my clothes are fighting me. The shirts and tees are the same story: athletic through the chest and shoulders, clean through the waist, a little stretch, and somehow they still look sharp instead of like gym wear.

What really sold me, though, is the durability. I’ve put their stuff through years of regular wear, washes, travel, and life, and I’m just now starting to replace some pieces. No blown seams, no weird twisting, no cheap fading. They feel like clothes that were actually designed for people who move, not just for mannequins.

If you’ve got an athletic build and you’re tired of choosing between “fits but looks terrible” and “looks good but you can’t breathe,” Barbell is the cheat code. I went from constantly hunting for something that fit to simply thinking, “If I need clothes, I’ll just get them from Barbell.”

Finally found a pair I like

I love my 5 pocket chino pants from Howler. They have been my go-to for so long, but they are on the baggy size. I have tried to find another pair of chinos that had a similar feel and finally found Barbell's slim athletic fit chinos. These are very comfortable pants, but the fit is what really makes these incredible. They are just lose enough to be comfortable, yet have a tailored enough appearance that allows you to wear these to work or out and about. These look good and feel good and the fit doesn't restrict movement. I ordered 32/34 and usually am around 32-34 in the waist depending on brand. The 32 slim athletic fit was spot on. If you are on the fence about ordering, these are defiantly worth a try.

You get what you pay for

I was impressed with the quality of the tshirts and hoodies I bought. High quality, good print, amazing shipping and customer service. I’m about to put in another order.

Perfect fit

These look and fit great! The exact right amount of stretch.

Great fit, look great

I’ve bought more shorts because I love them so much. So comfortable to wear when training, dry quickly and look great

Solid quality, fit and customer service

The build quality is superb and everything couldn’t be more comfortable. Another bonus is the return process for exchanging sizes is so easy and you can even initiate the order before you send back the original order. This saves a lot of time and is really convenient. Great stuff!

Covert Pant amazing!

Love these. Got one pair and picked up another pair after a few days of wearing them. Stretchy, lightweight, Non intrusive pockets for everything I need. I have been searching for a pant like this for years! Thank you Barbell. Will now try a few of your other products.

Shows off the gams

Big fan of these shorts. Resistance to the spill filled duties as a father of a kid who loves popsicles. Zipper pocket is perfect for a guy who’s keys have fallen out of his shorts at a kids baseball game and had to feel like an idiot as all the parents walked the field like a search party for an hour at 9 at night. Also great for working out too. Appreciate them

Great work pants

Not a tactical fella here but I do work construction. I wear a version of these pants every day at work and they are the best pants I’ve worn in the field in the 30 years I’ve been swinging the ol’ hammer. Tool pocket works perfectly with a tape measure when I don’t have my tool pouch on. Maybe when I slap those suckers on come Monday I’ll tittilate everyone with a picture showing the tape measure functionality of said pocket. A magnetic pocket and a zipper pocket choice on either side is also a great feature. Appreciate the work everyone

Very comfy

Fit is very good and it feels very premium and soft

Awesome pants, weird sizing.

The jeans are awesome. They look like normal jeans, but are so flexible and way more comfortable than any others I have.

Getting the sizing right was a bit of a pain. Their return process is easy, but the first pair I got must have had the wrong size printed on them. They were way too big. I returned them and went down to size, but they were too small. I re-ordered the original size and they ended up fitting great at that time.

fits like a glove

Shirt fits well and is high quality

Great quality

Plenty of space for arm movement. I would recommend sizing up if you are taller, they run short

Great style and fit

My 18 year old grandson loved the hoodie and athletic fit jeans.

Ultra short!

The ultra short is comfortable and light weight!

Love wearing them for my runs or hanging around the house. I would highly recommend them for anyone who runs, great for cross training too! Plenty of storage for gels or other racing fuel. Will probably end up with a few more pairs of them.

Great job barbell!

Frontier Flannel

Perfect flannel

I’m 5-9 180lbs and I lift…..hard. This flannel in Medium fits great. Stretches, and is just right on the warm scale for Oregon fall and spring. A light jacket over for winter is recommended. I got the red and picked up the green for my son after seeing the quality and fit.

Great chino

I am 6’5” and weigh 312 pounds and have a muscular build. Finding pants that fit are difficult. These chinos were a perfect match for me.

Arid Hoodie

Super lightweight

This is the most lightweight hoodie I’ve ever gotten, it’s something that you can wear for your entire run/workout and not something that you have to take off when you’re warmed up. Super soft and comfortable. Had to get one for my wife as well.
