I am not talking about in the gym working out, I am referring to the situation you walk or commute to gym. I am probably too precious with my dress clothes. I don’t want to leave them in the gym bag because there are many stuff in there that will wrinkle dress pants badly. The lockers in the gym also kinda dirty so I wouldn’t leave a sportcoat in there as well

I personally go home and change my self, even though is kind of far. I do not like to go there on business suit you know it could end up smelly in just two days, it is odd.

Exercise in grey without logos. Possibly in an all white t-shirt. When you are done you drape a navy double breasted sport jacket with gold buttons over your shoulders, and walk hurriedly from the venue.

I have the same problem but I try to wear more wrinkly resistant suits/ dress pants - easy to ask your tailor about fabric that is fairly wrinkly resistant, especially if you pick a heavier cloth. Also plenty of youtube videos that show you how to fold your clothes properly (ie roll them/ jacket inside out)...

No Name Necessary,

I agree with you.

I simply change at home - my office is walking distance to my home, but the gym is a drive so I go during my off time...

You didn't ask; but for the gym a classic black T shirt and comfortable khaki short pants and heavy black wool socks and good fitting New Balance black running shoes.

I don't do cardio in the gym - thats what country roads and my dogs are for... so pure cotton shirts work well. Have been experimenting with bamboo shirts recently.

I leave high tech fabrics for road work.

Waldo Jeffers,

I like the idea of a home gym but there is something about a good gym with lots of equipment that is great... I do have some dumbbells for when time does not allow driving to the gym.
