17 Extra-Comfortable Tops to Wear to Your Next Yoga Class
In yoga class, you'll want to feel as comfortable and supported as possible, and a lot of that has to do with what you're wearing. Chances are you've probably been in the middle of a workout where your leggings kept rolling down or your top was uncomfortable. And that can disrupt your flow, literally. When you feel like you have to adjust your clothing every couple of seconds, you can't pay attention to class and you can't really focus on getting into the poses.
We've already covered the best high-waisted leggings for yoga that won't do the dreaded roll-down, so today, we're going to focus on the best yoga tops, from sports bras to longline fits to tanks and shirts. These are sweat-wicking, supportive, and they'll keep everything in place (if you know what I mean) so you can pay attention to the workout instead of what you're wearing and why it's bothering you or not fitting well. See below for some of our favorite options.
1. Lululemon Align Tank Top
If you're looking for something that's not too cropped but not too long, this one's for you. It's designed especially for yoga and made of buttery-soft, weightless, and sweat-wicking fabric.
2. Athleta Ultimate Scoop Tank
The quick-drying tank is great for all types of workouts, even medium to high-impact ones.
3. Alo Yoga Airbrush Real Bra Tank
Both a bra and a tank, this one from Alo features a V-neck, racerback, and a longline fit.
4. Beyond Yoga Space Dye Slim Racerback Cami
If you prefer your tops more fitted, this one from Beyond Yoga hugs your body just right but has stretch. Then you don't have to worry about extra fabric getting in the way when you're doing inversions.
5. Girlfriend Collective Plum ReSet Relaxed Tank
Everyone needs an easy, versatile tank for any workout. Girlfriend Collective's relaxed top is quick-drying, sweat-wicking, and made from 11 recycled plastic bottles.
6. Fp Movement Love Tank
FP Movement's tank is just so easy breezy—you won't feel constrained in it. The muscle tank has a cropped silhouette and dropped armholes.
7. Core 10 Lighter Than Air Performance Tie Tank
Here's another tie-back option, this time from Amazon. The easy breezy tank wicks away sweat and keeps you dry.
8. Zella Ava T-shirt
This soft and stretchy T-shirt is perfect for any type of workout, even yoga. It has a longer hem in the back for more coverage.
9. Lululemon Ebb to Street Long Sleeve Shirt
For a long sleeve option, this soft and seamless top is designed for yoga and when you're on the go. It's designed with minimal seams to avoid any chafing and provides light support for B and C cups.
10. Sweaty Betty Move Split Back Yoga Tank
Sweaty Betty's yoga tank has a split back that lets you move freely. You can also tie the back for a tighter fit.
11. Athleta Shanti Asana Tank
This may look like your average tank top, but the keyhole details at the shoulders is a unique twist (literally). The fabric is sweat-wicking, quick-drying, and breathable, too.
12. Core 10 Jacquard Mesh Workout Cropped Tank
You know this breathable mesh tank will keep you cool during hot yoga (or any intense sweat session). The cropped fit will look so good with high-waisted leggings.
13. Fp Movement Good Karma Crop
This crop has light compression, which is perfect for yoga. It has crisscross straps for extra support, and it's also got SPF 30 UV protection.
14. Alo Yoga Cover Tank
The front-wrap detail on this crop tank just looks so stylish and effortless. It's made of the softest jersey fabric and has a raw-edge hem.
15. Beyond Yoga Studio Crop Tank
I love that this basic tank has some design details that really make a difference when you're working out, like supportive crisscross straps and a high neck for extra coverage.
16. Girlfriend Collective Moon ReSet Super Crop
This might be just the easiest tank ever, and it's great for any type of workout, too. The soft fabric is both sweat-wicking and fast-drying.
17. Vuori Mudra Ribbed T-Shirt
You'll probably want to wear this cropped and fitted tank outside of the yoga studio, too.
Other Yoga Accessories to Shop
A high-quality mat always pays off because you can use it for your yoga practice and also any other mat workouts.
I love using my yoga strap to stretch before and after workouts.
