    Athleisurewear brand Adanola has amassed a cult-like following over the past few years - so much so, search for, "is Adanola having a Black Friday sale?" is spiking on Google.

    And it's easy to see why. In previous years, the raved-about brand has offered up to 70% off leggings, sports bras, tops, hoodies and more.

    Wondering if Adanola is offering a Black Friday discount this year? Good question. While we can confirm that they've decided to opt out of Black Friday this year, I'd still recommend having a scroll of their website.

    Why? Because the brand offers some of the best affordable kit on the market, with leggings available for £40 even without a discount. And trust me, I should know - I'm a Senior Health Editor who's run nine marathons and tested out the Adanola bestsellers over hundreds of training miles, countless strength training workouts and a couple of Pilates and yoga classes, too. While I was a little sceptical of the spaghetti strap bras and aesthetically pleasing kit to begin with, I really rate how supportive, sweat-wicking, and high quality Adanola is for the price point.

    I've worn different iterations of their kit time and time again - on long runs, to the gym, to Pilates, to brunch, to run errands, and to work. And not just any runs, either - I wore Adanola kit on one of my 20-mile training runs pre-Chicago Marathon and felt supported and sweat-wicked for the entire three hours (and also swear by their best-selling Adanola sweatshirt for cosy days wfh).

    Safe to say that I'm a fan, and recommend investing in a couple of items if you like the sound of affordable yet effective gym wear that stands the test of time.

    Not sure which items are best to invest in and keen to buy items I've tested and would definitely recommend purchasing? I own the items below and wear them at least once or twice a week.

    Adanola isn't having a Black Friday sale - but I'd still recommend the below investments, as a Health Editor

    Best Adanola leggings:

    Adanola leggings

    Ultimate Leggings
    £40 AT ADANOLA

    The Ultimate Leggings were the first thing I ever owned from the brand. While I was sceptical about whether the quality would be as good as the reviews said, I needn't have been - they never fall down, sag, or crinkle at the knees, and they sweat-wick well, too. I like how flattering they are, but also how supported I feel mid-workout.

    The only thing to be mindful of is they do pile if you sit on uneven surfaces, like wooden benches.

    Adanola leggings

    Wrap Over Leggings
    £42 AT ADANOLA

    Their Ultimate leggings but with a cute cross-front design detail, these high-waist tights are super flattering, hold you in in all of the right places and make you feel comfortable for any workout, from Pilates, to yoga, to strength training. Plus, their compressive material keeps you at the right temperature for your sweat sessions.

    Adanola leggings

    Ultimate Leggings
    £40 AT ADANOLA

    In a chic autumn colourway, their best-selling design is cuter than ever. I'm a big fan of how they contour to your body and the fact they come sans front seam, meaning no unwanted camel toe, here.

    Best Adanola bras:

    Adanola square neck sports bra

    Ultimate Square Neck Bra
    £30 AT ADANOLA

    My second favourite sports bra from the brand is their newer square neck bra, which is surprisingly supportive, given the design. It's a wearable basic that I wear for both workouts and work thanks to how lightweight and comfortable it is. While it says that it's designed for medium-support sweat sessions like HIIT and hatha yoga, I've worn it for all types of workouts. Trust me - you'll use it a lot.

    Adanola Tank Bra

    Tank Bra
    £30 AT ADANOLA

    The brand is known for its fashion-forward matching gym sets, and I wear this Tank with the Ultimate Leggings at least once a week. It's got a shorter in-built bra and longer line tank which offers medium support workouts. I also rate that the padding is removable - perfect for people like me who find padding a bit of a faff.

    Best Adanola t shirts:

    adanola bestsellers - woman wearing oversized ada hoodie

    Short Sleeve Oversized T-Shirt
    £38 AT ADANOLA

    Hard basics are often hard to find, but again, I'm a fan of Adanola's. I have a few oversized gym t-shirts from them, including this white option. It's a great thickness and the perfect slouchy fit, too.

    Adanola oversized tee

    Oversized Logo Tee
    £38 AT ADANOLA

    Spoiler alert: I actually own this tee too, and it's really great quality for a reasonable price. It's a good thickness and washes well, too, which is essential for any top you'll be wearing too, from, and sometimes in the gym. Shop our full edit of oversized gym t shirts, here.

    Adanola tank top

    Ultimate Short Sleeve Zip Up Top
    £38 AT ADANOLA

    I wear this short sleeve, zip up top on repeat for spring and autumn runs. It's the perfect thickness for keeping you warm yet cool and compressive enough that you feel extra-supported for high intensity workouts. I love the cut and fit, too, and that it's versatile enough to wear for daily errands.

    Best Adanola sweats:

    Adanola trackies

    Sweatpants
    £54 AT ADANOLA

    Ada is known for their chic but cosy sweatpants, and these cuffed trackies are no exception. Cosy Autumn vibes at their finest.

    Adanola knit tracksuits

    ADA Knit Straight Leg Sweatpants - Cream/Coffee Bean
    £65 AT ADANOLA

    One of the brand's best-selling designs, these gorgeous knitted straight-leg sweatpants come in a cream colourway with a coffee bean logo detail. They're next-level soft and slightly more tailored than your classic tracksuit, making them the ideal option for elevating your cosy brunch look.

    Adanola jumper

    Trail Oversized Funnel Neck Zip Sweatshirt
    £60 AT ADANOLA

    I'm not joking when I say the Ada sweatshirts are some of the cosiest I own - and for a fairly affordable price point, too. I love the half-zip design for long walks and hiking, promising to keep you cool during or after a workout. It washes well, but do be sure to wash at a gold temperature, as the organic cotton is prone to shrinking.

    Best Adanola accessories:

    Wellness gifts: Adanola socks

    Socks
    £28 AT ADANOLA

    I live in my Adanola socks. Sounds like a weird must-buy, but it's hard to find a good sock and these are close to perfect. They're an ideal thickness, height, and style, and come in white, cream, and black, to suit any look or gym fit.

    Adanola cap

    Active Cap
    £16 AT ADANOLA

    Bad hair day, no longer - the iconic Adanola caps are life savers for running errands, rainy days, or just styling a gym outfit. I've had loads of compliments on this one, and it always comes in handy for holidays and long runs.

    When does the Adanola Black Friday sale start? 

    Sadly, the brand has confirmed that they're not having a Black Friday sale this year. That said, I'd still recommend the brand for affordable, high-quality gym kit that'll support you through sweaty sessions while ensuring you look stylish, too.

    Why are Adanola hoodies so popular?

    Adanola has become a cult-favourite brand in the past few years thanks to their timeless and stylish athleisurewear designs. Their hoodies, in particular, promise to elevate any WFH look and make cosy walks comfortable and fashion-forward.

    While the brand specialises in basics, they're wearable, versatile items that you can throw on over gym kit or wear day-to-day, meaning they're better value for money than other pieces you'll only wear for working out.

    It's worth mentioning the price point, too, because I've had all of my Adanola kit for a few years now, including some hoodies. They cost around £55, making them a really affordable price point for the quality. They also wash well, meaning they'll last the test of time and look good in years to come.

    Oh, and did we mention that celebrities including Kaia Gerber, Pernille Teisbaek, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley love the brand?
