1) lululemon
4.2•Sportswear store•Open
Location: 138 Crown Park Ave, Gaithersburg, MD 20878 Downtown Crown+1
Why it’s a great option:
- This store specializes in activewear that blends performance and style — especially good for yoga, studio classes, running, and “gym-to-lifestyle” wear. Downtown Crown
- You’ll find premium fabrics, thoughtful design, and trendy cuts, making it a good choice if you want workout clothes that also look great outside the gym.
Tip: Because of the more premium pricing and specialized selection, if you’re strictly shopping for basic gym wear or budget pieces, you might want to combine a stop here with a more value-oriented store.
2) DICK’S Sporting Goods
Location: 2 Grand Corner Ave, Gaithersburg, MD 20878 DICK’S Sporting Goods
Why it’s worth a stop:
- This large sporting goods store carries a wide array of workout apparel from multiple brands (men’s, women’s, kids) so you can compare fits, fabrics and price-points all in one place.
- If you’re outfitting for training, gym sessions, running and maybe need more than just clothes (like accessories, shoes, etc), it serves as a convenient one-stop.
Tip: Because the store carries many brands and a broad stock, the quality and specialization vary — so if you’re after something very technical (e.g., elite running tights, high-compression fabrics) ask the staff what lines they carry. Also check the clearance/discount section for deals.
3) Athletic House
Location: 18900 Bonanza Way, Gaithersburg, MD 20879
Why this store stands out:
- Although more niche than the big chain, this sporting-goods type store may carry athletic apparel geared toward training / sport rather than just casual “gym wear.”
- It can be a good pick if you’re looking for something slightly different — perhaps less mainstream, maybe more focused on performance or sport-specific apparel.
Tip: Because smaller stores often have less inventory than large chains, call ahead to check what sizes/brands they have in stock, especially if you have specific needs (e.g., high-impact sports bras, technical tights, etc).
