How to Choose Gym Wear Based on Climate (Hot, Humid, or Cold)

When it comes to training, your workout gear should adapt to your environment just as your body does. Whether you’re training under the blazing Dubai sun or running in a cold-weather climate, choosing the right gymwear fabric and fit can make all the difference between comfort and distraction.

At First SQUAT, we design performance wear that works with your body — regulating temperature, wicking away sweat, and keeping you focused on every rep.

Why Climate-Specific Gymwear Matters

Your body’s cooling or warming process relies heavily on moisture management and breathability. The wrong fabric traps sweat, irritates the skin, and can even affect your performance and focus.

Below, we break down how to choose the ideal First SQUAT gymwear based on your environment — hot, humid, or cold.

Gymwear for Hot Climates

Key Features to Look For

• Lightweight and breathable materials

• High moisture-wicking capacity

• UV protection and quick-dry fabrics

Best Fabrics:
Recycled Polyester, Nylon, and Elastane blends

These materials move sweat to the surface where it evaporates quickly, keeping your body cool and dry.

Recommended First SQUAT Picks:

• First SQUAT DryFit Tee — made from 80% Cotton and 20% Polyester for airflow and comfort

• SQUATCORE 5” Shorts — 92% Recycled Polyester and 8% Elastane for a light, stretchable fit

• Breathe Crew Neck Tank — 91% Recycled Polyester and 9% Elastane for women seeking ventilation during cardio

Pro Tip:
Stick to lighter colors that reflect sunlight and avoid heavy cotton in extreme heat.

Gymwear for Humid Climates

Key Features to Look For

• Anti-microbial and odor-resistant properties

• Four-way stretch

• Enhanced sweat-wicking and quick-dry performance

Humidity traps heat and sweat, which means fabrics that can breathe and dry fast are non-negotiable.

Best Fabrics:
Recycled Polyamide, Nylon, Elastane, and Mesh panels for air circulation

Recommended First SQUAT Picks:

• MomentumFit Tank — 92% Recycled Polyamide and 8% Elastane

• 2-in-1 Men’s Performance Shorts — inner and outer layers designed for ventilation and support

• DreamDrip Performance Set — 80% Recycled Polyester and 20% Recycled Elastane, perfect for high humidity sessions

• CoreEase Seamless Bra — 86% Nylon and 14% Elastane for seamless comfort and sweat control

Pro Tip:
Avoid heavy cotton or fleece. Look for mesh zones or laser-cut ventilation panels that let your skin breathe.

Gymwear for Cold Climates

Key Features to Look For

• Thermal retention with breathability

• Layering flexibility

• Slight compression for warmth and muscle support

Best Fabrics:
Polyester blends, Spandex, and Cotton-Poly hybrids that insulate while allowing moisture to escape.

Recommended First SQUAT Picks:

• UrbanLift Hoodie — 60% Cotton and 40% Polyester for soft warmth and post-workout comfort

• AllDay Ease Joggers — stretch-based warmth without overheating

• EssentiaFit Long Sleeve Top — 88% Nylon and 12% Elastane for sleek, flexible layering

Pro Tip:
Layer strategically: base layer for sweat control, mid-layer for insulation, and an outer layer to block wind or rain.
