Is Reprimo a Good Brand? Honest Verdict
Is Reprimo a good brand? Yes — for what it sets out to be. Reprimo is a UK-born performance apparel label built around four-way stretch fabric, flat-lock seams and deliberately minimal branding, and it's worn in training by UFC fighters. It sits at an attainable price for the build: full tracksuit sets run roughly £52–£145. It isn't a heritage fashion house and doesn't pretend to be — it's technical gymwear that's clean enough to wear on the street. We stock it in depth, so this is the straight version: what's genuinely good, who it suits, and where it sits against the alternatives.
1 | The Short Answer — Is Reprimo Worth It?
If you want a matching, technical tracksuit that performs in the gym and still looks sharp walking out of it, Reprimo is a genuinely good buy. The fabric does real work — four-way stretch and flat-lock seams aren't marketing, they're what stops a set restricting movement or chafing under load. The fit is a deliberate athletic taper. And the branding is quiet, which is exactly why the sets cross from training to street so easily.
Where it's not the right call: if you're after a logo-led status piece, or a heavyweight loopback-cotton tracksuit for pure lounging, Reprimo isn't built for that brief. It's performance kit first. Judged on that brief, it's well-made and fairly priced.
The 10-second verdict
Good for: training, athleisure, matched gym-to-street sets. Standout: technical fabric and clean, minimal design at a mid-market price. Watch: popular colourways sell through fast and rarely restock. Our rating from the shop floor: a strong yes within its category.
2 | What Reprimo Actually Makes
Reprimo's catalogue is organised into named ranges, and the name tells you the build. The three asked about most are Flight (lightweight windbreaker tracksuits — the core line, widest colour choice), Motion (soft jersey hoodie-and-jogger sets) and Impact (marble-print windbreaker sets). Around those sit technical lines — Clima, Vortex, Summit, Axis and Helix — plus seasonal capsules like Shibori, Horizon, Nova and Xcelerate that rotate by drop.
Across all of them the format is the same: a matching twin set (jacket-and-pant, hoodie-and-jogger, or tee-and-short), with every piece also sold individually where stocked. The full breakdown of which set does what is in our companion which-Reprimo-tracksuit guide.
| Range | Build | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Flight | Lightweight windbreaker shell | The all-rounder — training, travel, everyday |
| Motion | Soft jersey | Comfort-first casual wear |
| Impact | Marble-print shell | A statement set |
| Tees & shorts | Quick-dry microfibre | Gym sessions and summer |
3 | Build Quality & Fabric — What You're Paying For
This is where Reprimo earns the "good brand" label. The construction principles are consistent across the range, and they're the right ones for performance apparel.
Four-way stretch
Polyester-elastane blends that move with the body in every direction — no restriction at depth in a squat or range in a press. It's the single biggest reason the kit performs under training load.
Flat-lock seams
Seams sit flat against the skin rather than raised, which eliminates the friction and chafing that wreck cheaper sportswear on long sessions.
Athletic taper
Trimmer through chest, waist and thigh than a high-street tracksuit at the same letter size. The silhouette stays sharp rather than slouchy.
Pre-shrunk & minimal branding
A pre-shrunk finish holds the fit after washing, and dual-needle reinforced seams hold up. Logos are kept small — the design rule is that every panel serves a purpose.
The honest caveat: these are technical synthetic fabrics, not premium natural fibres. That's the correct choice for gymwear — it wicks, dries fast and stretches — but it's why Reprimo reads as performance kit rather than a heritage tracksuit. Within its own category, the make quality is good and consistent. The deeper engineering detail is in the main Reprimo brand guide.
4 | Who Reprimo Is For (and Who It Isn't)
Reprimo's identity is built in the gym rather than the photo studio — the range is tested by fighters, PTs and CrossFit athletes, and its roster of UFC athletes (Luke Riley, Shem Rock and Nathan Fletcher among them) train in the kit. That tells you who it's designed for.
It's a great fit if you…
- Train regularly and want kit that actually performs — not just looks the part.
- Like a matched, minimal aesthetic that works gym-to-street without shouting.
- Want technical sportswear at a mid-market price rather than premium-label money.
- Value a clean silhouette and an athletic cut over a baggy streetwear drape.
Look elsewhere if you…
- Want a heavyweight cotton tracksuit purely for lounging — that's a different garment.
- Are buying for the logo or status — Reprimo is deliberately understated.
- Prefer an oversized streetwear fit as standard — you can get there by sizing up, but the house cut is athletic.

Most customers who come in for "a good tracksuit that I can train in and wear out" leave happy with Reprimo. The ones who want a fashion statement first tend to look at our heavier streetwear brands instead. Tell us the use-case on 01744 730985 and we'll point you straight.
5 | Price vs Value — Where Reprimo Sits
Reprimo is positioned in the attainable-performance bracket. At OD's, the ladder runs roughly:
- T-shirt & short sets — around £52–£93.
- Jersey sets (Motion, Axis) — hoodie/half-zip and jogger sets around £52–£124.
- Windbreaker tracksuit sets (Flight, Impact, Summit, Clima, Vortex) — around £58 up to £145 for the newest Flight colourways.
- Separates — tees from the mid-teens in the sale, shorts from around £25, joggers and pants £25–£70, shell jackets £30–£90.
For a matched technical set with four-way stretch and flat-lock construction, that's fair value — you're paying performance-fabric money, not designer-markup money. A full set typically costs less than buying the same two pieces separately at full price, and older colourways drop as new drops land, which is where the strongest mid-season value sits.
Live prices are always on the product page — many lines carry seasonal reductions, so the real number can be well below the figures above.
6 | Reprimo vs the Alternatives
Reprimo competes in the same space as the established gymwear and athleisure labels — technical fabric, matched sets, gym-to-street styling. Where it differentiates is the combination of a genuinely minimal aesthetic with a fighter-tested performance brief, at a price that undercuts the premium end of that market.
Against louder, logo-led gymwear, Reprimo is the more understated choice — better if you want the set to read as clean technical clothing rather than branded kit. Against heavyweight cotton streetwear tracksuits, Reprimo is lighter, more technical and built to train in, where the cotton sets are built to lounge in. Neither is "better" in the abstract — it depends entirely on what you want the set to do.
The honest positioning: Reprimo is performance-first apparel with a streetwear-clean finish, at a mid-market price. If that's the brief, it's one of the stronger value picks in its bracket. If you want fashion-first or lounge-first, the brief is wrong, not the brand.

8 | Frequently Asked Questions
Is Reprimo a good brand?
Yes — within performance apparel, Reprimo is a good brand. It's a UK-born label built around four-way stretch fabric, flat-lock seams and minimal branding, worn in training by UFC fighters including Luke Riley, Shem Rock and Nathan Fletcher. Full tracksuit sets run roughly £52–£145, which is fair for the build. It's technical gymwear clean enough to wear on the street — judged on that brief, it's well-made and well-priced.
Is Reprimo good quality?
For its category, yes. The fabric is a polyester-elastane blend with genuine four-way stretch, the seams are flat-locked to prevent chafing, and the finish is pre-shrunk with dual-needle reinforced seams that hold their shape after washing. These are technical synthetics rather than premium natural fibres — the right choice for gymwear, and consistently made across the range.
Is Reprimo worth the money?
For a matched technical set with four-way stretch and flat-lock construction, the £52–£145 range is fair value — performance-fabric pricing, not designer markup. A full set usually costs less than buying the two pieces separately at full price, and older colourways drop as new drops land, so mid-season value can be strong. Live prices on each product page often sit below RRP during seasonal reductions.
Who wears Reprimo?
Reprimo is worn by people who train — fighters, PTs and CrossFit athletes — with a roster of UFC athletes training in the kit. More broadly it suits anyone who wants a clean, matched tracksuit that performs in the gym and still works for everyday athleisure. It's a performance-first brand rather than a fashion-logo brand.
Is Reprimo true to size?
Mostly, yes. Reprimo runs XS–3XL with an athletic taper — trimmer through the chest, waist and thigh than a high-street tracksuit at the same letter size. Most builds should order their usual size; if you're between sizes, broader through the chest and thighs, or prefer a looser streetwear fit, size up. Our Reprimo sizing guide covers this in detail.
Where is Reprimo from?
Reprimo is an independent UK performance apparel brand. Its identity is built in the gym rather than the photo studio, and the range is tested by athletes across the UK. The full brand story is in our Reprimo brand guide.
How does Reprimo compare to other gymwear brands?
Reprimo sits in the same technical-set space as the established gymwear and athleisure labels, but differentiates on a genuinely minimal aesthetic plus a fighter-tested brief, at a price that undercuts the premium end. Against logo-led gymwear it's the more understated pick; against heavyweight cotton streetwear sets it's lighter and built to train in. Which is "better" depends on what you want the set to do.
