1) DICK’S Sporting Goods
118 Shawan Rd, Cockeysville, MD 21030 (serving Hunt Valley area) Store Opening Hours+2Yellow Pages+2
Why it’s worth a stop:
- A large sporting-goods chain carrying a wide array of workout apparel from multiple brands (men’s, women’s, kids) so you can compare fits, fabrics and price-points in one place. Wheree
- Good for basics (tees, shorts, leggings) as well as more technical pieces, depending on what brands they carry at any given time.
- Location is convenient just off Shawan Road, allowing you to browse not just apparel but also accessories/shoes if you’re outfitting a full training wardrobe.
Tip: Since this is a broad‐selection store, quality and specialization vary. If you’re after something very technical (e.g., advanced compression gear or high-end fabrics), ask staff about fabric features (moisture-wicking, compression, seams). It’s also beneficial to try things on for fit.
2) Athleta
4.4•Clothing store•Open
834 Dulaney Valley Rd, Towson, MD 21204 (about a 15–20-minute drive from Hunt Valley)
Why this is a great option:
- This store specializes in women’s activewear with a strong athleisure component — sporty, but stylish.
- The apparel tends to bridge studio/yoga/gym wear and everyday wardrobe, so if you want workout clothes you’ll also feel comfortable wearing outside the gym, Athleta is strong in that niche.
- The brand generally focuses on performance fabrics, good fit, and more refined styling — making it a solid choice if you prioritize both function and fashion.
Tip: Because it’s more niche and higher-end, price points may be higher and men’s or kids’ selections may be limited (or require visiting another store). If you’re shopping for a woman’s workout wardrobe that transitions to casual wear, this is an ideal stop.
3) Under Armour (Retail/Outlet Nearby) & Nearby Alternatives
While a dedicated Under Armour retail store (or “Brand House/Factory House”) in Hunt Valley specifically for apparel wasn’t clearly identified in my search, the brand’s presence in the area is strong (e.g., their performance training center at 11270 Pepper Rd) Under Armour Performance Center+1
If you’re willing to travel slightly further, you may find a factory or brand outlet of Under Armour in the broader Baltimore / Annapolis region. For example the nearby “Nike Factory Store – Hanover” is listed, though not under Under Armour. Nike.com+1
Why this brand/store pursuit matters:
- Under Armour excels in performance apparel built for training, sports, compression fits, tech fabrics.
- If you train hard (weights, cross-training, running) and want workout clothes that perform, tracking down a dedicated UA (or other performance-brand) outlet can yield deeper selections.
Tip: When you find the outlet or brand house, ask about “last season” styles or clearance racks—they often carry high-performance gear at better value. Also check their online inventory for local store pick-up if available.
