GOREWEAR Yoga

Frequently Asked Questions

• How should I size GORE Wear yoga tops and bottoms to allow full range of motion?

  GORE Wear follows a form‑follows‑function sizing approach: R7 pieces are close‑fitting for a second‑skin feel, R5 is intermediate, and R3 runs more relaxed for layering and mobility. For power or hot vinyasa choose your usual compression/baselayer size; if you prefer a looser fit for studio or street‑to‑studio wear size up. Check the product size chart and look for women’s‑specific cuts and elasticated waists to avoid restricted poses.
• Are GORE Wear pieces suitable for hot, sweaty yoga like Bikram or heated vinyasa?

  Yes, if you pick lightweight, highly breathable models (look for INFINIUM™/Windstopper® or uninsulated R3 items) and avoid insulated Thermium™ or heavy PRIMALOFT® pieces. GORE’s fabrics are engineered for moisture management and anti‑wet‑cling construction, which helps in high‑sweat sessions, but choose minimal layers and venting features to prevent overheating.
• What technical features should I prioritize when buying GORE Wear yoga apparel?

  Look for flat seams and soft trims for chafe‑free transitions, abrasion‑resistant face fabrics for longevity, and elasticated waists that stay put in inversion and flow. Pockets and reflective elements are useful for outdoor dawn/dusk sessions, and materials like PFAS‑free GORE‑TEX ePE and recycled content support sustainability without sacrificing performance.
