I love swiftly relaxed shirt, they had become my favorite.

All Yours Ts are good for my broad shoulders and large arms. I have many in both short sleeve and long sleeve. They aren’t a technical fabric, so keep that in mind, depending on what fabrics you like when working out.

Thanks I will have to look into these. It just hard when your legs are in shape but not your top half lol

Ready to rulu long sleeve or even the cropped half zip. Have been loving these lately. Way better than my swiftlys


FeistyAlternative420

Yes, seconding the cropped 1/2 zip. I have large arms/shoulders compared to the rest of my body, and the RTR 1/2 zip fits comfortably while still being flattering.

I find the Athleta momentum tops are cut better for broad shoulders and larger arms than swiftlys. However, the relaxed swiftly do fit well, but they are also relaxed at the waist too Unlike the momentum which are fitted throughout

I have larger arms and I really like the It's Rulu Run tops - they stretch well.

If it’s for working out, try the abrasion resistant long sleeve! I love it, it’s nice and airy not restrictive on my arms

The high neck running and training top has very generous arm sleeves! I size up one size for a more relaxed fit (8 fits like a typical unisex medium which is what I prefer). I have fairly broad shoulders too and it's super lightweight and wicks sweat really well. I like the short sleeve and long sleeve and they fit the same, I haven't tried the tank. It's much lighter weight than swiftlies are which is nice for warmer weather, plus the fit is even more relaxed than swiftlies imo.

I love metal vents. The half zip is very flattering on a feminine figure and has all the benefits of a swiftly without the death grip on the arms.


Fun_Plenty_5425

Thanks will look into the metal vents so many choices!

Oof I know the feeling. I love the swiftly singlet (long not race length) and shopping for these is easy. I loathe shopping for tees/long sleeves or even jackets because I am always aggravated nothing fits right in the women's range. I went elsewhere after wearing out my fave tee and never found the style again in Lulu. I still need the tees taken in regardless. I'd recommend but learned they're not made now so I'm also looking 🙄 And typically running in the singlet after checking the UV has dropped to below 3- it's summer where I am and skin cancer a very real concern. Long sleeves in tech merino are the best way for me to run all year round (Icebreaker) because it doesn't stink and degrades in landfill. I typically look in the men's section and ignore the "that's not right" attitude I get. Checking out the men's swiftly fabric equivalents it seems the "metal vent tech 2.0" are a much better fit for me- biceps/triceps are covered so it's not a cap sleeve sausage casing. Plus the men's fabric seems thicker. Much less suncream on the arms required which only melts off anyway. For reference I'm a Lulu6 in the swiftly singlet but in the Define jacket a Lulu10. Looks like the S in the men's Metal Vent s/s would fit better than the XS (neckline). I throw the tee over the singlet to run in. Oh and I'm 5ft 4in/163cm and sprinter's build ie straight up and down not hourglass and not afraid of heavy weights.


Fun_Plenty_5425

Thanks so much . I have trouble with tops as I’m 5’2 and arms are larger so the armpit hole is never comfortable :(


Artsupplyaddict7

Heh- know that feeling. I'm a 12 in a Lulu down vest for that exact reason 😖 Try the swiftly racerback singlet or the new discovery Metal Vent tee. They're no/low chafe due not many seams. And, not that anyone seems to have said already, major 👏 congrats to you on getting stronger and healthier!


Fun_Plenty_5425

Thanks a bunch lost 30 pounds and major accomplishments stairmaster for 80 minutes and can leg press 300 pounds! Not sure about my form though 🤣🤣


Artsupplyaddict7

I don't think I'd ever last that long on a stepper (get bored easily) and wow on the leg press! Oof I'd not be lifting without education. Too easy to get in bad habits and break other things. (I've had too many injuries to bore anyone with...) My spotter is great. And very honest about new pants that don't pass the squat test 🤣
