Workout underwear refers to close-fitting undergarments specifically designed for fitness, training, or light daily activities, emphasizing functionality, comfort, and suitability for movement. In 2025, global Workout Underwear production reached approximately 973 million units, with an average global market price of around 8.5 US$/Unit. The production capacity of Workout Underwear reaches 1,300 million units, and the industry's gross profit margin is approximately between 30% and 50%.

The growth of the workout underwear sector is primarily driven by the widespread popularity of fitness culture, the rise of the athleisure trend, consumers' heightened demands for functionality and comfort in intimate apparel, and the deepening embrace of sustainable consumption philosophies. As demand increases for "barely-there" comfort, anti-chafing properties, moisture-wicking and quick-drying capabilities, and antimicrobial features—whether during running, strength training, yoga, or daily commuting—traditional cotton underwear is increasingly unable to meet the diverse needs of these various scenarios. This has compelled brands to develop specialized products by incorporating high-performance elastic fibers, seamless construction techniques, and ergonomic tailoring. Concurrently, the promotion of active lifestyles on social media has intensified user focus on base-layer apparel; furthermore, the adoption of size-inclusive designs, the use of eco-friendly materials, and the expansion into gender-neutral styles have further broadened market reach. Consequently, workout underwear has evolved from a mere invisible accessory into a significant product category that embodies values ​​related to health, technology, and self-expression.
